how wud these compare with the alesis m120, yamaha HS50M or the tapco s-5's?. right now i got some maudio av40's but im not satisfied with them. how much more should i expect out of these compared to the m audios? im really curious

[solidrecording2012]

go with the mr8 series or just get a subwoofer for the ones you already got,

Wrong. The mackie's 1/4 input (jack) is balanced and can also accept unbalanced inputs. A fully wired TRS 1/4 is always a balanced mono signal or a unbalanced stereo signal. You can google it if you don't believe me. The only advantage of XLR over TRS jacks is that the XLR connector can be secured.

Long story short: the guy isn't a dueche and your mouth is way to big :P

These are of higher quality then KRK monitors, best monitor in the price range...

MACKIE MR5 or YAMAHA HS50

@RizzoAstronama Yes, because recording a studio monitor with a camera mic would be utterly pointless.

@S1L3nCe Are you sure? If so, guess I've been taught wrong then... carry on.

[S1L3nCe]

@Nukkro That question would be like asking how can you increase the saltiness of a soup by using a red spoon instead of a grey one.

The signal level (+4 dBu or −10 dBV for this matter) is handled by the equipment that generates the signal (eg: audio interface) and the equipment that receives it (speaker input). Fully wired XLR or TSR cables are just carriers of the signal. Using one or another makes no difference in respect to signal levels.

[Nukkro]

@S1L3nCe How can you get up to mic level with only TRS?

[S1L3nCe]

@Nukkro Good lord... Once again: I'm not talking about levels. I'm talking about these two types of connectors. Sound quality wise, fully wired XLR cables are no different from fully wired TRS cables. They are just signal carriers.

I think you are confusing I/O signal levels with the type of cable you use. Thats a HUGE mistake, I must say.

[Nukkro]

@S1L3nCe "The only advantage of XLR over TRS jacks..." Mic level has a lower noise floor there for has quality advantage.

[S1L3nCe]

@Nukkro Who said anything about quality or input levels? Read dhdishner's post and then you might understand what I'm talking about.

A balanced output is a balanced output. It doesn't matter if you are using an XLR connection or a TSR 1/4 cable.

[Nukkro]

@S1L3nCe Actually you're wrong, mic level is always higher quality than line level. I think you are the one that needs to Google/read Dummies books more.
