    Maybe you've posted the wrong link, it goes to a youtube channel with 1.77k subscribers and perhaps 40,000 views.

    what if you cant afford the best ones?

    then you are stuck with what you have - correct? :dunno:

    Something what often is overlooked: Better monitoring can not often make your music/mixdown better ...

    There are clear evidences that a listening environment with certain standards raise the potential of a tonally more pleasant listening experience of the resulting material - independent of the consumers listening environment.

    Yes, one has to adjust to his budget and one can of course also equalize what he already has.

    People should just care about the evidently relevant things. Due to my observation, rejecting this results in their problems in terms of audio processing, which one can see here all the time over and over again. :yes:

    I mostly work on headphones as it's a controlled environment, but I do check some spatial stuff on speakers. If I was a professional musician I would be using pro mixers and mastering engineers, and I'd probably be recording in a proper studio as well.
