Just read your post. Guys here recommended VRM Box for mixing your song. They also recommended Song MDR 7506 headphones also, although I'm going to save £20 and buy the near identical domestic version - Sony MDR V6 instead. I guess once you get a good mix it should play well on any sound system? The other thing to consider would be how well your sound system reproduces compared to the sound you get from your computer bedroom or office. That's why I started this thread and I've come to the conclusion that whilst most sound systems will do, I'm looking for something Hi Fi like with nice smooth deep bass as if the bass/drums were live. So far the Bose L1 seems to offer that, but I haven't heard it yet and the system is very expensive.
