The mid-price home-stereo 12" three way speakers I tried to use many years ago for home studio monitoring for awhile before getting the EV monitors-- Those old home stereo speakers actually made music sound 'better' than the studio monitors, but it was just impossible to mix on them. I wanted something that would sound really bad if the mix sounds really bad.



And THAT is the purpose of monitors. Just an honest representation of the mix. That's all we need for mixing.
No 'extended super sonic bass' or other such 'enhancements' (coloring of the sound)..just an honest clear sound.

Good story James. Re-affirms my respect for EV, especially their speakers. One of the few 'permanent' PA systems I set up used EV loudspeakers that I was pleasantly surprised by. They handled the job well for years.. may still be doing so! They are only 15 years old or so by now.

I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
