I'm currently using a pair of Spirit Absolute 2s as reference monitors, but
I'd like something a little more meaty bass wise for dance music. I'd
appreciate any suggestions

Thanks

PMC. Buy according to budget - 600-700 quid should get you into a pair of
TB2S+, if you've got more cash spare go bigger!

You need to stop reading, and find a dealer for a demo - take your current
monitors with you as a reference point.

Look at the Dynaudio range as well.

May I just add that PMCs are the dog's ******** ( English term of endearment
) in the monitor dept. Utterly fabulous. Clean and delightfully extended real
bass. A true renaissance of the transmission line school of thought and
design.

100% recommended.

Depends entirely on budget.
I just use big old KEF speakers for oomph and have Dynaudio BM6a for mixing.

My favorites that are not astronomically priced are
1) Dynaudio
1) Quested
2) errrrr
3) that's it

The BM15 might work for you or the BM6a with a subwoofer.

Hi,
We use Quested F-1's for mixing Dance and Rap music. And Meyer HD-1's
for the stuff we record with microphones; bands, choirs whatever. The
Questeds seem to handle the hard attacks of those 'savage kik drums'
).
The house music stuff seems to translate well from the studio to the
club when mixed on the questeds, just don't go mad on low end. I mixed
some backing tracks recently for a rapper at large outoor gig, I went
along to check it out and was really happy how well the tracks sounded
over a large PA. Blah Blah Blah.
I think though you should try a monitor that isn't ported for a start.
Regards
DS

Superb - thanks for all the suggestions!
