Passive Monitors vs Active Monitors
Hello all!
I'm looking at the Event Studio Precision 8's to replace my current
Berhinger Truth (don't ask) monitors.
I already have a nice Hafler amp that puts out about 125w/ch and I don't
mix at high levels as a rule. I also have a Samson amp that puts out
around 150w/ch and to be honest I don't hear any difference between it and
the Hafler although the build quality of the Hafler is much better.
I know Samson has a miserable reputation, but.......
So my question is, should I go with the Event actives @ $1,100/pair on
sale at GC or go with the passives @ about $650/pair at Swee****er (I
think that price is a wee bit high!).
Thoughts?
Anything else I should consider at the $1500 and below price point?
