    No. Are you having trouble with your mixes?

    Does it worth it? :dunno: I don't know... i mean... instead of paying extra bucks to improve some budget speakers.. it's not a better option to wait and save some extra bucks for a better studio monitors pair? I just ordered the Eve Audio SC 307 3-way monitors which they cost me 2200 euros together. If i wouldn't wait to get them, i had in mind to buy the Yamaha HS8 monitors instead. Now i feel more fulfilled with this Eve Audio purchase instead of Yamaha ones, but for the budget guys who can't spend patience for a better future-proof purchase, the HS8 are great as well IMO :dunno: .

    it's a small fee since i already have the monitors, to get the perceived dynamics range and compression lifted off of the monitors seems like a benefit if it truly works. I guess it would make the monitors a little more truer.

    I think the monitors are excellent as sold. They do lack heavy bass rance, but that is intended because they sell a sub for it. Is your studio acoustically treated?
