If you hear flutter in the room, try and identify where it's coming from. You should sit in your mix position and play a loop of a dry rimshot or very short, dry snare. They're good for quelling reflections, high end reflections. Putting up things like acoustic treatments in your room (like auralex) will NOT help at all with bass frequency absorption. Sure enough, their mixes translated well to the outside world. Several engineers told me that one room (I think it was 'B') sucked up bass, so they'd compensate by putting more bass in the mix than they might do in some other room. Perfect example was a now defunct studio called Platinum Island in NYC. Engineers who worked in such rooms enough would sometimes find - from listening to their mixes outside of those rooms - where the sonic strengths and weaknesses lay and compensate accordingly on future mixes they did in those rooms. Even in some multi-$100,000 control rooms there can be problems.

I'll probably keep the Mackies, tho, as it pays to have mutiple pairs of speakers when mixing to get different perspectives on the sound.Д¬ompensating for sonic deficiencies in a studio space is a skill that full time recording engineers are very familiar with. Still, I'm in the market for something else. But my room suffers from an 80Hz dip (it's 19x25 with 12' cathedral ceilings) so I've learned to compensate for the bass, and am now learning to compensate for the high end. The low end response is very decent, very decent indeed. I've had them for years but over that time I've found that the high end is hyped, at least within my studio listening environment. Then you get to know YOUR room, and how it translates to other areas. I haven't yet invested in room treatment, but one thing you can do is burn your tracks to disc, and then try them in different environments. Try to have at least 4-6 inches from a wall.Дў) They should form an equilateral triangle from your head when you are in your normal listening position.ДЈ) As far as height, the height of your head should be level with the area in between the tweeters and the woofers. I am definitely no expert as I just recently asked a similar question in the Control room area, but here is my effort to help (I could be WAY off):ДЎ) Having your monitors against a wall is a bad idea. Room treatment is soooo important in getting a good monitoring situation. I wouldn't worry that you made the wrong choice in monitors. Hopefully there are some sound gurus out there that can give me some advise.

Perhaps the Yamaha's would have been better? Peoples thoughts and suggestions much appreciated. Have just forked out a lot of money on these suckers and want to be happy with what i purchased. They are currently running of a MAudio firewire solo interface (could this be a factor, is this an Ok Audio interface?)ДЄny suggestions and help much appreciated.

I have the speakers pushed up against the wall on my desk. The room i have them setup in is about 11x10 feet in size so fairly small.

I know that speakers will sound different in different locations and environments and different room sizes but was wondering if anyone had any good suggestions on how to get the best sound out of these suckers. Its not until i stand on the other side of the room until i can feel the bass or hear it. They sounded great in the shop (was choosing between the Mackies and the yamaha msp7 speakers) However, when i got them home the bass levels sound nothing like it did in the shop. I just bought a new set of Mackie HR824MKII 2-Way Active Studio Monitors. Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction to a sound/speaker/monitor setup forum. This is not so much a logic question as a technical.
