i had the pioneer dj dm40s for about 2 years. they went incredible with any dj controller

[@BestProductQuest]

Thanks for sharing!

[@blipblip88]

Any suggestions for monitors that sound good for ambient/drone synth playing on analog synths? This is generally a lush, multi-textured sound. Thanks for the vid/recommendations!

[@BestProductQuest]

Any of the monitors on our list would do well with synth drones and textures, but many love the Pioneer DJ DM-40's for electronic music and full range of sound. Keep in mind that there is a learning curve for every set of monitors while you discover how they translate audio. Hope that helps, thanks for your question!

Been using the same pair of Spirits for over 20 years now and whilst i am still as happy with them as the day i bought them, i feel with all the developments over the years, im missing out on fidelity somewhere within the audio spectrum haha! I was thinking of going with Adam T5V for the upgrade but some of these are tempting too

[@BestProductQuest]

Thanks for sharing! A good pair of studio monitors can last for a long time, but you could definitely be missing out on some fidelity and features at this point. Adam T5V's are also a good choice in the price range. Enjoy!

[@karlsmith8113]

@@BestProductQuest Yeah absolutely! Not a single replacement tweeter or Bass driver in the Spirits, theyve done so well over the years and got me a few releases too! .. Time to move on though :)

[@BestProductQuest]

That's great, best of luck!

[@deadbabyjokes5319]

Do they all have 1/4 jack ?

[@Doktah_GroundZero]

Good video. Well done. I wish however that you added the price of each speaker to the video.

[@samlee2562]

Prices are based on the economy which is currently experiencing a period known as moderately f@#£#d 😂

[@Juniscrazy]

That’s your part of the work lol

With less effort than writing your comment you can click the link and see the prices …

Will the eris sound good with hyperpop/weirdcore/ dreamcore / phonk type of music ? Or is the bass very muted ? Also can they be used for casual use like listening to music. ( same type of music as listed above ) . Id go with normal speakers but i kinda also want them for production since my headphones died Which one would you recomend

[@BestProductQuest]

Hi there and thanks for your question! As far as your favorite types of music, the Eris wont be shaking the walls with bass, but they will give you a full range of sound for a good price. With your other question, yes, you can definitely listen to music on your studio monitors! This will help you to really develop a sense of what they should sound like. Especially music that you know very well.

[@moonfox4990]

@@BestProductQuest i ended up getting the edifier mr4 i hope i didnt mess up with my choice . Any knoledge on the mr4 you could give me while i wait for its arival ?

[@BestProductQuest]

The Edifier MR4s are a great set of monitors for the price. The step up to a 4" driver should give you a nice idea of the lower frequencies as well. Enjoy!@@moonfox4990

[@SquarededBeats91]

Thanks... since i'm a producer(beginner) you mean i can buy any of these for my bedroom studio

[@BestProductQuest]

You bet, and make sure to take the time to get to know how the monitors sound on all of your favorite music. Also, treat your room or at least hang blankets if possible. Good luck!

[@SquarededBeats91]

@@BestProductQuest Okay thank you🙏🏾

[@BestProductQuest]

@@SquarededBeats91 No problem! 👍

[@SpacedOutDoonie]

Damn I wish I knew about the Rockvilles before I bought the Eris 3.5.

[@annebokma4637]

Adam t7v is missing

[@ishantakki]

Please Suggest DM 40 Or MR 40. I Am Confused 😕

[@BestProductQuest]

Both monitors are great choices with very similar specs. Overall sound quality may be a bit in the DM-40's favor, but that doesn't necessarily mean the sound accuracy is better. It may come down to which price point you'd prefer. The Pioneers can be found on eBay for a good deal, especially open box models, but the Edifiers are a little more affordable in general and can be found new at a great value through the product links here. Hope that helps, and thanks for your question!

[@default9025]

Coolio. Thx

[@BestProductQuest]

No problem, thanks for watching!

[@kadiummusic]

Depends on what you call budget? I've got a superb four way system and it cost me only £1300! Kali IN-5's with a WS-6.2 subwoofer and it sounds incredible! 😎

[@BestProductQuest]

Thanks for sharing!

[@BillGraper]

I don't know why they call them monitors. They are speakers. Monitors are visual devices, giving us the ability to see what we're doing.

[@movieunravel]

Hahaha! I don't know if you're joking or not. But for audio engineers or anyone who is doing audio work, monitors are the visual devices for us. 🤣 I mean we don't trust our eyes we trust our ears so yeah! 🤣😂
