I don't have a big budget....at all....even $350 is gonna be a stretch right now...but I need some decent reference monitors for doing my mixes. This is something that I've stupidly gone without for awhile now. But I'm currently working on a record I pln to market and sell, and would like to get the best I can out of the small resources I have.
So, basically, what are some good options for monitors for my DAW? I'm running an M-Audio Delta 1010lt sound card, if that makes a difference to anything. Also, my style is dark, aggressive death/blackmetal, with ambient/gothic textures, if that also holds any relevance.
I just want something thats gonna give me a good representation of whats going on in my mixes....something pretty neutral, and clean/fairly uncolored sounding I suppose. The M-Audio BX5a's have been suggested to me, but what else would be my options...anything better? What should I be looking for, spec wise and so forth.
So, hopefully I came to the right place...
