I have the degidesign m-box mini. and it has two 1/4'' outputs. which cable would i need to connect it to the TRUTHS? would i need just two separate 1/4'' cables, and it would work? Thanks a mill.

[recordingrevolution]

@DovMaslow Yes. Use two balanced TRS 1/4" cables into the Truths.

Man you shure know stuff about recording and stuff, i give you that...but Behringer is the low end of audio/studio monitors market, maybe for the price they are decent but dont make them look like they are great, you will make some of the users watch this video buy them like they are the best. Adam (ax series) Focals, Genelec, Dynaaudio will run circles around any behringer speaker like np, and you know the rule, spend as much as you can on a monitors, because you will prooly keep them long etc.

[recordingrevolution]

@26psyside I don't subscribe to the rule, "Spend as much as you can on monitors" because I don't believe that is what is holding people back from making better recordings/mixes.

hey man a quick question for you. I am planning on buying studio monitors and these are on my list of possible choices. But I don't know if I should buy the 5" or 8" version. I have a small, untreated room. I always had problems with low end in my mixes and I want to hear it clearly and i'm afraid that the 5" won't be enough. On the other hand I have a small room. What can you say about it? It's a nice review btw, I enjoyed watching it.

[recordingrevolution]

@nogare35 It's really a preference thing. I mix better on the 5 inch speakers in my small room. I would start there.

More importantly is that you "LEARN" your monitors. Listen to other music through your monitors and learn the frequencies your monitors express more vibrantly. Of course beastly monitors are cool if you have the cash, but if you gotta get these then do it!

@recordingrevolution thanks for the review! i love this company and im sure they nailed it with this one as well..im actualy off to buy a pair in about an hour..btw it sounds from this recording alone that you should not use more than this guys in this room..same problem i have and that why i think they suit it best. im not gonna listen to them before buying cause it could be a deal breaker but im sure theyre flat enough:)

thomann says Behringer B1030A but i believe this is excact same product am i right? well anyways im just wondering should i buy these if i would have a 300e budjet and the monitors is just half of that would they still be the best ones from that budjet? still concidering the price though :P

[pressplayprods]

Hey I was wondering. I want to purchase these monitors but how would I go about changing the volume, I'm not expert but I want these monitors. What else would you suggest I buy when purchasing these monitors? Any answer if fine! Thanks.

[isreal95]

another note is that these are 'reference speakers' they technically shouldnt be your primary speakers. They should just be used as a reference so if you really just want speakers with no problems you need to drop some dough!

[CiANoneProductions]

Thanx for tha info bro! i just got mines today lol

i read a review on guitar center and it said that if you leave em on for a while the result in the speakers end up in heat and that the heat can loosen up the capacitors in em.....have you expiernecd anything of that nature?

[MrCandry]

@Swidhelm Waahoooo.. Thanks a lot for these video bro ;-)

[Swidhelm]

@MrCandry I've no personal experience with them, so don't take my word for it. I'm researching reference monitors because I'm after a pair. I've been watching reviews here and reading about them in forums.

watch?v=XfD7RnC7P6Q&feature=re­lated about studio monitors in general. Interesting to watch.

watch?v=CJuNkTi1Akg KRK extrusion vid. Might give you a better indication of the bass response.

[MrCandry]

@Swidhelm Okay. Because I hesitated to buy them, i dont know if i buy them or not.

[Swidhelm]

@MrCandry No prob. Yeah, from what I hear the KRK Rokit 5's have more punchy bass.
