Yeah Bob, get one of the pair of $1,500 Sennheisers, let her listen to them, and then hand her a pair of $4 Eye Candy ones.  Just kidding, of course. I still love my AKG K240's. Gary
I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!

Well I went and did it........ The pots and switches cleaned up pretty well on the old receiver, so I decided to keep that and the KLH and Bose speakers for playback, then I ran across what I hope turns out to be a decent deal. Like I said, budget concerns force me to take advantage of deals when they come along. After reading reviews on things, this is what I ordered today for basic mixing / recording etc. The fostex monitors are minimal, but the reviews are pretty good in general, the MXL 990 is a decent budget mic, I use one already, and could use a second for the rare duet, haven't used the 991 before, so I'll see how that works out. Didn't really need more headphones, but they are basic senheisers, so how bad can they be for a singer to hear themselves. The mic stands I have one of these already, and they serve the purpose in a studio, they would hold up for a lot of gigging, but what the heck for the price they work fine. Anyway, I got the whole deal as shown plus a two year unconditional warranty on the mics and monitors, and a shockmount for the mxl990, with free shipping for $283.00. I guess it doesn't do the job I can always return it. http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/Musicians-Gear-PM0.4-990991-Studio-Package?sku=600656Thanks for the advice. Rob

Holy cow,
Forget what I said about, keeping the receiver and the KLH and Bose stuff. Well I may keep the speakers for future home entertainment stuff. I cannot believe my ears.........
The little Fostex monitors blew me away.......
Apparently there are Much MUch better monitors out there, and someday I work up to them, but compared to the old receiver and bookshelf setup I was using, I am in awe.
The whole package was a deal, even though its all pretty low end stuff, but I know the MXL 990 works for me cuz I already have one. The stands and cables were a bonus for gigging from time to time, but I am very pleased with the whole package and price.
I really cannot believe I spent so long trying to work with the old receiver set up, it's a crying shame.
The olny problem is that Now I can really hear how bad I can be at times........:)
Seriously if you need any equipment, and are on a tight tight budget, check out this package.

When I got my present set of reference monitors, I recall thinking, "Hey, the old ones weren't so bad--if I had my ears stuffed with cotton." Seriously, I was and am extremely happy with a purpose-built setup and I know you will be, too.
Congratulations on your new rig. It's a better tool, but adds greatly to the pleasure of the process as well.

Yeah, having that balanced sound in the design of the amps and crossovers really does make a big difference.
I'm happy for you. I remember that exact feeling .. a couple of times!
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
Make your sound your own!
