No offense, but what exactly are you trying to say?

Ok guys I am all doing u a favour, sharing my expertise with u hehe. No seriously, before u buy ne monitors ask a dealer to try them home or in ur studio. if u are not happy u can go bck and exchange it. in USA is no big problem as the dealers are very helpful. Neway, another way to test ur monitors is to listen to some transparent recordings. one excellent example is Norah Jones' Come Away With Me album. it was recorded  on a 2" analog tape and the sound is incredible. If Norah's voice doesn't sound real and intimate as if she is singing in ur room, then ur monitors are rubbish. It does sound absolutely fabulous on my Yamaha HS50Ms. If you don't have the Norah's album u can go and have a listen on this site: http://www.norahjones.com/   Just go to the media section and click on the turntable pic to get to the audio files and listen to either Seven Years or Come Away With Me. As I said it should sound as if the musicians and Norah are in ur room. If not, change ur monitors and buy Yamaha HS50Ms. U can also read about how this recording was made from the interview with the legendary producer Arif Mardin on this site:      http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/jul04/articles/arifmardin.ht m This is all from me for now, see u later my dear pupils...

Okay...you do understand, at a conceptual level, that monitors are a subjective choice to be made by whoever is using them, right?  I know that there are plenty of guys (yourself included) that DON'T like my Dynaudio BM6A's, and that's fine.  I really don't care what someone else likes.  I like what I'm using because it allows me to turn out mixes that sound the way I want them to sound.  I don't care that you think that your Yamahas are the greates acoustical invention ever.  They work for you.  Fine.  I'm certainly not going to go out and get a pair.  

And is this how it goes now?  Norah Jones is the new Steely Dan?

it's funny u mention Steely Dan, because drummer Rick Marotto on their track Peg says the sound engineers couldn't capture the nuance he was creating on hi-hats... my point exactly!  

U can watch the making of Peg on this site: http://youtube.com/watch?v=CH0JpBzi68E

To all the guys here don't know what they are talking about, why don't u all go work at the Starbucks or something?  Obviously u dont know nothing about music. Yamaha HS50Ms are the best small monitors ever made, for studio recording or Hi-Fi use. All the other manufacturers u guys mention don't have the resources like a giant Japanese manufacturer such as Yamaha, but they charge thousands of dollars for their poor products u guys rave for(this includes Genelecs, Adams, horrible Mackies, Dynadios etc). So I advise u to shut up and listen or go play in the sand. Yamaha HS50Ms are the most transparent small monitors ever made, if u can't hear it or ur music doesn't sound good  on them ur an untalented musician (or an engineer), get it?

I actually thought you were kidding. I saw you had just registered here so I figured it was a dummy profile to post a joke like above.

Some advice, since you are new here, this is a modestly professional forum and we are here to help each other, not to fight about stuff. Telling people to shut up and go play in the sand is just aggressive and immature. You will make freinds and have a better time sharing and gaining info here if you do it with professional respect...and that is not to be confused with gangster respect.

I am glad those yammy's work for you. I am curious to hear them myself.

[No longer a member]

has nebody asked for ur advice? and just where it says this is a pro forum? i don't think quincy jones would bother to post messages here.

im not an engineer so i can say what i want. but this describes me perfectly:

"Assembled here you will find some of the brightest minds from the creative and scientific world of audio"

and of course this:

"Here is your chance to participate in discussions concerning the elements of audio production that interest you most. Enjoy."

Are u still not heading to the nearest sand?

GOLDEN,

Are you saying that the thing you most enjoy about audio

production is getting on internet forums and calling people

stupid because the don't use the same $400 monitors as

you? Someone who freely admits they're not an engineer?

Whatever. I'll be biting my nails waiting on a well thought out

reply from your incredibly bright  mind.

Golden Ear, take it down a notch or three. I suggest you stop posting and listen for a bit, I'm quite certain you'll learn something.

Further posts from anyone attacking another will be deleted. Any further off topic posts will also be deleted.

Wow! I am pretty surprised with what is happening on here!LOL

In fact I have been in direct contact with Dynaudio Denmark and they have just released the BM6AmkII and the BM12.

BM6Amk2 has a better frequency response, output power, thd and a lower price tag.

If I have a chance to test them, probably I will pick a pair of Dynaudios.

I am having big trouble on testing their boxes in Brazil.

BTW.. has anyone had the opportunity to test the BM12s yet?
