How are they different from normal audio speakers? In this episode I talk about how studio monitors are not meant for easy listening, but rather to reveal problems in audio. Ordinary speakers are meant for audio enjoyment in a multitude of settings. Studio monitors are designed for one specific purpose in a single, highly controlled environment. Woofer color is not important except for the brands to differentiate from each other in the marketing space, studio monitor audio personality is much more important. Before you purchase studio monitors you should know what type of audio you are going to check. Dance music? Vocals for a documentary film? Video game audio bits? The next winning Eurovision track? Listen to this show before you buy your studio monitors, then, if you can, go to an audio dealer where you can listen to a variety of different brands, keeping in mind the type of work you will be doing. This episode is NOT sponsored by any speaker companies and we actually purchased the studio monitors we ended up choosing. Sponsor wanted: We are looking for a sponsor for the show. There’s only a single sponsor per episode, host read, and embedded deeply into content.
