Set Up Studio Monitors Diagonally

Fantastic for the studio monitors.

STURDY AND EASY TO SET UP.

GREAT PRODUCT AND EASY TO SET UP.

I have been using the Mackie SRM Series Studio monitors in my recording studio and home sound system for years, and did not expect this set to sound as good given the price point. I was pleasantly surprised with how good this set really sounds. If you feed them a quality audio source, they sound great. If you plug them into a cheap sound source, not so much. I like that these have multiple unbalanced and balanced input jacks. Keep in mind that these are near field monitors, so the correct placement on your desktop is necessary to realize the potential sound quality.

I use these stands to get a set of Tapco S-8 studio monitors, which weigh 35 pounds, to standing desk height. They do the job and have multiple height increments held by pin. I chose these because they had a wider base and fit my budget.

This is my first set of proper studio monitors. Previously, I had been using Sony bookshelf speakers with a subwoofer and a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990 pro headphones. I really like these JBL 306 monitors. In my 10x10 room these speakers produce plenty of bass, even for electronic music a subwoofer would be overkill. I bought mine on sale for $240, yet I think they are worth at least the $400 original price tag. For small to medium studios I think these 306’s are perfect, I think the 308’s would be a waste of money and a waste of space.

BEST VERY EASY SET UP

VERY EASY TO SET UP AND USE

This is my second set of these very nice monitors.

I like the way these studio monitors sound. I purchased several pairs.
