I have DM-40 in my home studio. It does look small, but when you hear the sound of it, it takes you away!! I play it only with the half volume up, cause I tried to go higher and put 3/4 of the whole volume and after few minutes I was hearing knocking to my doors from the neighbours :DD

[@deanjegleeson4504]

i just purchase an Electro-Voice Evolve 50 column PA system just one in my place is enough to blow the roof off and keep the neighbours tea cups rattling down the stair walk. seriously impressive set of kit. extremely happy. the second one will work perfect for my first small outdoor mini festival

[@corbinarhh7605]

I got the JBL partybox 710 and they are great for college house parties

[@mansourd4917]

I use Jbl Partybox 100 for Djing and partys maybe not the best precise sound but the bass is amazing

[@tobydulanski9480]

Hey Andrew, as far as what I use with the advice of a friend many years ago. One pair of RCF ART II - 312 One pair of RCF 705 AS II Subs For Additional Bass a Behringer VA1800D For DJ monitors KRK Rokit 5’s All have performed well at reasonable use for at least for the past 7 years. I’ll also add that this combination shakes our house when the wife is not at home. Thanks for giving sound advice to people looking for honest answers. It’s always a pleasure to watch your videos over here in the states. 🔉🔉🔉🔉

[@djstretchtone9851]

I'm trying to figure out what two two-way speaker 2 toppers I could pair with 2 subs that would sound good and almost kind of a Hi-Fi sound possibly lol. I would also like to get a monitor for the DJ booth. I kind of want to budget but I need a sound system that is versatile in a small venue or a large venue. A multi-purpose sound system. Even if the recommendations are kinda expensive I would like to hear your input. Maybe a poor man set up or a middle of the road set up. Thanks

[@stuungar3390]

Did you get set up? If poor-man's set up, then 2nd hand good quality, and listen before buying

[@techno9495]

Your timing is impeccable. Just startet working and im planing on getting a new sound system with my newly saved money. And keep it up! I love your Videos and your contagious joy.

[@DDReyMusic]

I recently bought a pair of Electro Voice ZLX 15p and these are completely amazing for the price as well, 100% recommend those from my experience

[@Michael-ul3rx]

I'd also recommend the Yamaha HS series for home monitors!

[@Antweezy]

I do mobile gigs and have used alto ts215 for about a year now with no problem, got a new pair for $400 so it was a steal.

[@user-wl1uz5sb9f]

I have got the KRK rokit 5 for home and it is sublime. Despite having a mildly neighbour-free environment (for central London) I barely use them at 25% of their maximum volume. And if for some events, you want this chest feeling, just pump up the subwoofer.

[@agustinamaria6219]

How is it the bass of the KRK 5? I used to have the pioneer M40 and they be on t have much of a bass reason why I don t really like them. Thanks !

[@coolelectronics1759]

thats is a home skeaker no? I have some the 5s and yep they kick ass but I'd be scared to bring em on the road and blow em. I normally use some rockvilles and altos, a combination of passive and active powered boxes all 8s and 10s for the tops with a 12sub the rockville gbr12000series

[@ellijackson6023]

I’ve got KRK rokit 7s for DJing and producing and they work a treat

[@DAIREMUSIC]

I’m wanting to buy them myself for the same reason , I was thinking 7 or 8 for mini house party’s of 15/20 people maybe 30 the odd time would the 7s be ok too use ?

[@ellijackson6023]

Daire Mcguigan 7s would be fine, I have these in my room and the bass literally makes my whole house boom 😂

These were the comments I was looking for lol

[@theaverageguy3884]

I use Logitech Z-906 at home. And i just bought 2 x JBL 310 BT speakers. They are to loud to be used at home, but i bought them at sale for private partys and i might rent a room for Djing. Lets se what the futures bring out of me. I might upload a video on here soon just for fun 😂 (new to the game)

[@DJ-Dorian]

Home monitors: ADAM T5V. Used presonus before this, but the Adam's are a step up for sure!! I like them v much.

[@bigdaz7272]

ADAM's are fantastic speakers, i own a pair of A77X's, they make even low Bitrate KZbin sound Holographic.

[@RC75]

@@bigdaz7272 I got the A77X’s too, love them but I put them a few meters away from me because they blow out so much wind that I’m scared that I’m getting a cold 😂😂. And I’m gonna buy a sub for some more punch. (Playing techno)

[@bigdaz7272]

@@RC75 Sub for more punch? Damn dude i knocked -3db off the Low End Trim cause they Punch like a Mofo :) Sound depends a great deal on your space and where you tend to listen from most of the time. For me the Center of the Room has less Base but i can alter this simply by how Far my Speakers are from a wall they sit along or how close they are to the corners. Even altering the inclination of the the Speaker by a few Degrees can effect the sound a lot for example sit a spirit level on them and raise the front so the 'bubbe' is just touching the line. Or try the reverse ect. More Wubs? I can get behind getting a Sub for more Wubs. You can never have too many Wubs xD

[@RC75]

@@bigdaz7272 More punch is the wrong word, just some more bass at a lower volume and when I play louder I wan’t to feel it in my body. I am a old guy (45), it’s what keeps me alive 😂😂😂

I been using the Presonus Air 15" with 18m" subs and they work and sound great.

[@tonyscholer1493]

I am glad you suggested the KRKs because that's what I want for my home. Thank you.

[@MrPoblijon]

I started with the DM-40 and they are truly a great value for the money. Still I got the S-DJ60X later, which I love. The crisp sound and strong bass at both lower and high volumes... I experienced playing outdoor and attended several outdoor events equipped with DB Technologies 2 x PAs, 2x subs and 2x monitors... Simply amazing, the subs were ripping my guts... Although I have no precise idea about the model or price of the outdoor set. I think it is about 10k €.

[@johnnyutah7003]

taken 2 days off work to watch your vids, spending time on my controller, learning so much tx, would be great to see hyperlinks of your courses and stuff at bottom of vids as only has website on some but no hyperlinks of fb page etc. tx again, as u make it very easy to understand

[@melkerbergner8004]

I have used the Electro voice Zlx-12p for some events and the sound Is really good. And if you add a sub you have a serious sound system.

[@Longbranx]

After soo much high end Studio and Hifi speakers i am finally Happy with a pair of SP Acoustics SP1MA for mixing/mastering my Techno music and Graham Audio LS 5/5 If i need some more relaxation.

[@ClubReadyDJSchool]

Good choice!

[@DB82TECHNO]

For anyone needing home monitors I bought the m audio bx5 d3 with stands for £200 and they are brilliant worth a look if you on a budget.

[@DeBanked]

I cannot play so loud so i went for krk rockit 5´s they sound great.

[@3d_Ink_Oficial]

I have them too...it sounds amazing

[@Aesop101]

I have the same. Superb sound

[@danielwillis1823]

I’ve got the Logitech z623 speakers and they work a treat, and with the subwoofer being included I get plenty of bass.

[@3d_Ink_Oficial]

I have a pair of krk rokit 5 in my bedroom and yesterday i play my first party, but for that I bought a pair of jbl eon 615 But my advice for first time buyers like myself, go to the store to try some different speakers I had a budget of $1000 bucks, and surprisingly i had many options on the store with the price range of $500 a piece The 615 in my opinion was the one that had an more clear sound and also a really good bass Witch was a must have for me that plays techno I’ll will be doing some upgrade in the future with maybe one more speaker and a subwoofer But that’s in the future For now I already know that just a pair of the eon 615 does the job just fine...

[@BradRichardsonWithATee]

Good point around the Behringer - I have the B112D for a similar purpose when the DM40s are too small for playing out at small house parties. But only got it on a display stock deal at 30-40% off. JBL, RCF, Mackie and QSC seem to get the best wraps on most groups I am on.

[@mariolibasurf]

I've been using Studio monitors Mackie 6inch for 4 years now and the sound is clean and got some punch but If I had to recommend or buy new speakers i think would go for the BOSE L1 Portable PA you can use at home and for party up to 100 people, easy to carry and the sound quality is unbelievable!! Check them out Cheers

[@Suitmyselff]

Machie thump 15” are my go too for small events

[@eliotmansfield]

Just bought a pair of mk4 Art-315a’s 2nd hand but like new, stands and covers for £440 for the pair - yep they are loud, especially in my front living room!

[@redataoussi]

Im using my bose companion 50 with a dedicated bass module! They rock pretty hard for a medium party and act as my home theatre too! For under 400$ I think it’s the best combo for someone how does only small to medium house parties! I’ve never pushed it to his max

[@guido69x]

Under 200$ the best speakers on the market atm are the Tanoy Gold7 and the Presonus Eris! Not talking just about the great sound quality they have,but the construction and all the tunning features and line IN´s to plug other devices.

[@djflintstone2816]

Old school jamo d365 these are old but still kick arse. I've had mine for 20 years and still sound great and the bass punch is awesome I use these for everything no subwoofers needed

[@bigdaz7272]

JBL 306 or 308 for some great priced awesome sounding Home Speakers. They sound great not only for Thumping Electronic music but they create a great sound stage to boot so throwing on some Dark Side and kicking back they easily create that other world where you forget about the speakers even being there. If you wan't to fill more than a House with sound though look elsewhere as they are not super loud.

[@boxing9850]

I use the kf850 eaw speaker it's a speakers the will do it all love them eaw is great

[@mr.anderson4571]

THIS CAME AT A PERFECT TIME! I'm literally in the process of getting at least 1 DJ speaker but not sure exactly what to get. I've been using my studio monitors but they don't have enough low end and I basically can't use my computer since the speakers are being used for the DJ setup - need a dedicated DJ speaker.. probably only one for now since I live in an apartment complex that I need to get out of ASAP.

[@selfinflictedjoy]

Hands down Yamaha HS8 for studio. Nothing against KRK but my preference...HS8

[@adamg6849]

QSC 8.2 - 12.2 are a phenomenal speaker range. The 8.2's can even be used for parties and home monitors. A little pricey but the sound is so worth it.

[@tinovejic497]

i currently use a fake JBL bluetooth speaker for my bedroom DJing but I’m looking to upgrade to some studio monitors and this video helped me a lot... thanks :)

[@adictoalrave6997]

I use the jbl clip 2 😭😭 i'm broke... 😂😂

[@ernaXmeier]

Very happy with the Kali Audio LP6. Got the pair for 260€ and they sound great. I play techno and the bass + response is very good, also mids are clear and highs don't sound harsh. There is a typical D amp hiss, but it doesn't matter much if you don't produce/master very quiet music. Also big sweet spot & alot of EQ options for different placements. Room acoustics & placement matter alot, just in case. Get some foam pads, stands or whatever. Comparing monitors in a store is a good advice, but you might still end up with a different sound in your room. Can't go wrong with the usual suspects JBL 306, Rokit 7, Mackie MR624, Presonus E5 XT, Focal Alpha 65. Adam T7V & Yamaha HS 7 sound too bright for my taste (I know people love both of these). If you're tight on budget - I've heard the Hercules Monitor 5 are very good for their price!

[@SerethTV]

Yess I got the kali lp 6 too. Loving them and I still need foam pads and to eq them for my room In spefic and further acoustics. Got a sub too and it booms

Yahama HS7s when mixing alone. And a pair of the box pro DSP 110 when having house parties. Very, very happy with both pairs. A sub would be nice, but then my neighbours would definitely come knocking.

[@donaldccannon1]

I got qsc. But I will say rcf is definitely for dj that loves bass

[@geekay269]

not taking away anything from what you've said Andrew but speakers, studio wise at least, is a personal choice for trained ears. those who's ears are not trained it matters little. people choose speakers to how coloured (bass heavy and high bright) they are cause untrained ear prefers coloured to natural sound. natural is boring to say the least. who remembers talking to their grandfather and slowly falling asleep hearing his history stories? natural sound does that, coloured sound doesn't, coloured sound excites the body/stimulates the senses/fatigues the ears.

[@Nodadj]

I've had a Bose Companion Series 5 Multimedia System for close to a decade that have primarily been used as computer speakers. The system comes with 2 satellite speakers and a sub woofer, and for an older system, they still sound great in my opinion.
