I currently have 2 JBL 120Ti monitors. They've got 12" cones, and some tweeters, but the 12" cones are crumbling, so I figured I would buy some new monitors, as I have no clue what cones to replace the broken ones with.
I just got back from guitar center, where I listened to KRK RP8G2, Yamaha HS80M, a couple Mackie's, M-Audio, etc.
Does anyone have experience with the KRK RP8G2? They sounded really good in the store, and at first they sounded better than the Yamaha HS80M. The Yamaha sounded hollow in comparison, but it might have just been a volume difference. Anyway, I couldn't really tell if maybe they sounded so good b/c they were coloring the sound.
Also, is there any difference in sound quality between active and passive monitors? I've been looking at actives because they seem convenient, but my current JBLs are passive, so I already have poweramps, and thus, would be able to use passives.
thanks
