Dynaudio BM5a's Vs Mackie Hr624's (monitors)

[Gopal]

F5D you have made some very good points that I think too many people in the industry misunderstand/overlook.

I work in the hi-fi industry and just as you said, the goal of hi fi is to accurately reproduce the source material. Everyone says "don't use hi fi speakers for monitoring cause they are 'coloured'. Well, newsflash guys, EVERYTHING is coloured. If they weren't then the Mackies and the Dynaudios would sound exactly the same as the KRKs and Events. But they all have their own character or 'colour'.

Besides you will find that Sony New York, Abbey Road and Lucas Films all mix and master their recordings on high end hi fi speakers and don't use studio monitors at all! B&W Nautilus 800 Diamond series speakers to be precise.

Worth pointing out that the whole point of everyone using NS10s is that they are such an aweful sounding speaker that if you get a mix sounding good on them, it will translate to a good mix on anything.
