RICHARD HUTCHINS Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Hi all, I need some small speakers to listen to tracks after mixing to see how they sound on a normal setup, not headphones. I don't mean £££ Studio quality, this isn't a studio, just decent ones to stick on the shelf. Any suggestions? ( I'm UK based) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martsave martin s Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 do you want to go on 3" speakers or 5" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICHARD HUTCHINS Posted December 28, 2021 Author Share Posted December 28, 2021 No sure! Time and again I mix a song down, sounds good on headphones, play it on my phone or laptop ( as many people do these days) and it sounds all wrong. So something deliberately "normal" I suppose.

Alan Tubbs Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Yamaha. They don’t even have to be the M series for musicians. They will provide an alt source that is different and kinda medium. Not the car or a boom box or headphones, but what use to be the “average listener experience”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RBH Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I would recommend JBL LSR305's. Low cost and very good sound for the price, second recommendation would be M-Audio BX5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the most expensive high-end studio monitors in the world aren't going to fix that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
