Small studio 5.1 monitoring
Hey guys. What monitors are people using for small space / home studio for 5.1?
Currently using KRK rokits for stereo mixes (from my dj days). I don't think more rokits are the way forward. |

Genelec sub and compatible satellites. As far as my room is concerned, it means 7060B sub and 8040 satellites.

How small is small?
I love the 8040As, but the even smaller Genelec systems are useful as long as you have the sub.

Re: Small studio 5.1 monitoring
I'm not even sure how big the studio is now. I did the acoustics so long ago. I'll need to measure it. But think comfortable double bed room or small lounge.

A pair of 8050's is also useful without the sub, but the (stereo) bass response is reference level in a tiny spot.

5 JBL LSR 2328 speakers and a Klipsch subwoofer. I haven't yet hooked up the center speaker and the subwoofer (or calibrated any of them). My home studio is about 1,400 square feet (including a mezzanine sleeping level), it's not really small in that it has very high ceilings (15 foot or 5 meters).

Dynaudio BM 5 Mk III or BM Compacts and a sub. See my review on Pro Tools Expert.

8030a with 8020a satellites. It does the trick just fine.
