Much appreciated!



Audition two sets of speakers at once.Set up a switch or better yet,
an additional amplifier to make transitions between the sets. If using
an additional amplifier, be sure to match the levels exactly or you
will prefer the louder set whether or not it sounds better. Start
with what you have and what you are auditioning. Find the strengths
and weaknesses of each.
Just listening to one set won't tell you much because listening
memory isn't very long.

I would suggest getting the following record from Chesky. It has their
LERD listening test on it and will really open your eyes to which
speakers and room conditions affect your monitoring.
