Studio Monitors For Audiophile

Fantastic for the studio monitors.

I am no audiophile, but I sampled my son's wired Monitors & loved them. My ears are just the right size (female) for the cups. I also thought the instructions were minimal. Appear to be very solid construction, but not too heavy (yet). There are several reviews from online audiophile sites that are helpful in making your decision.

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

Seems to be a good value. I use it for my project studio monitors.

I spent a bit more than I usually do on the cheaper Tascam studio headphones, and so far it has been worth it and even eye-opening. I am not an audiophile but, the quality, to my ear, is amazing. I also really like the coiled cord so that I am not wrangling it at my desk or at a shoot.

First off, I do not consider myself an "audiophile". I just enjoy playing and listening to good music. I purchased the SS-CS5 speakers to use with my (bedroom) home studio. I didn't really have a need for flat response studio monitors, as I will be listening more than actually mixing. I have a Zoom L-8 mixer and using a 50-watt per channel Class-D amplifier. The speakers sound really great and the bass is adequate for my room. I may add a subwoofer later down the road, but at the moment I am just enjoying them by themselves. I agree with all of the great reviews on YouTube, the SS-CS5 speakers are a great deal and hard to beat for the money spent!

Not as many to choose from theses days as there used to be. This one is good for typical consumer use. A serious studio or audiophile will likely prefer to spend substantially more. B&H shipped it to me quickly. Buy one now, you never know when it'll be discontinued! Pretty basic, but works fine.

Studio cables are key to a great sounding system. Mogami has an excellent value without getting into the audiophile grade cables. Good value, great warranty, excellent sound. I only use Mogami in my studio.

I consider myself an audiophile and have two decades of studio experience and sound engineering. After reading reviews here I made the decision to give JBL a shot as I was just building a small home studio and couldn’t spend thousands of dollars on monitoring. I feel this package is worth a few thousand in sound. The speakers are beefy and the sound is crisp and seemingly flat, not overly colored. The mixes that I have that I know are warm, are warm. I’ve heard these mixes on top of the line studio monitors and am seriously impressed at how they sound on this system. You can’t beat the value you get here for this price. I plan on taking great care of these speakers and hoping for a long life, but can’t comment on their longevity until I’ve had them for several years. The sub pumps out warm low frequency. The kick sounds I’m getting are very accurate to what was recorded and how the drums sounded in the room. Go for it if you’re thinking about it!

I already was using some of these for monitors in my studio, but I find them really useful for miscellaneous use such as a table for a laptop.
