I'd go with this over the monster pro. I have this for our studio and I have seen furman everywhere I go. The monster is over priced and It did not review as well as the furman. I looked into it as well. It looks impressive but I think that is what your buying

Furman's are really nice working with sound equipment. I use one on my personal stereo gear and one on my PA (including wireless)Bigest advantage is noise suppression and also getting all devices running at the same level on the same clock. Pretty affordable for everything it providesYou will realize a maximization of frequency range.Herbert Bicknell HardySocio MuiscoligistMichigan

I have always used Furman so, I cannot speak on Monster stuff. Furman has never let me down! One thing the Furman will do for you is, isolate your wireless from the other equipment! You have a possibility of interference from the UHF signal. Unless you just have to use the wireless I, would hard wire. Especially for recording. Good luck, Bob

Hello, I would suggest the Blackstar ID30 or ID60 for a little more power , and much more ideal for the type of music and sound you are looking to get. You can give the store a call if you wanted to order one of those 856-384-2725

Use an internal Sound card to interface to your DAW or for a 3.5mm jack use a monitoring control to manage your flow like PreSonus Monitor Station Studio Control Center or the one that I personally have and like is the Samson C-control Control Room Matrix which is configurable to what ever setup you have. Depending on your desire you may need the Samson C-que8 4-Channel Headphone Amplifier, but both is cheaper than the Presonus setup (even though I have mostly PreSonus shop).

Dan, keep looking and you will find the Saffire for less than the PreSonus 24/96. Personally, I was focused on getting the Saffire Pro 40 and was monitoring the price every day here in Amazon. Found an awesome deal, pulled the trigger and never looked back. This is my current interface and my next upgrade is to pair it with an OctoPre from Focusrite. Can't go wrong with Focusrite.

Not an Apple hater so dont know about that, but I have HP dm4 its about a 2008 or 09 year model, my Senns kick butt its like your at a concert when watching anything on utubewith no amp just get a adapter plug and ur good to goI dare you to even try and turn the volume up halfway hahaIf you know anyone who is hearing impaired, as I am, about 80-90 percent deaf, set them up with this for music as well as videos of people talking on utube as can understand what's being said clearly, with the volume turned almost all the way up, THEY WILL CRY WITH JOY!

If it has ASIO drivers for windows or core audio for Mac you should be good to go

Can't really answer how the combination of the Fiio E17 matches up with the HD 700 head phones. If your're going to spend that much on headphones I would suggest checking out the DAT's and Amps on HeadRoom @ www.headphones.com

I just bought a Mcintosh MHA100 DAC/AMP and it is brilliant with the HD600. It completely changed the performance and took it to a level that in my opinion was better than $1800 cans I tried. If you like tubes Woo Audio WA7 has some excellent feedback

Yeah, man: as I wrote in my review, the MDR-V55 are practical for both indoor and outdoor use, they have strong-bodied sound and are are well built, so they're great at around $60. I suggest you compare the V55s (DJ style) with the XB400 or XB450 (compact style) and see which looks best to you, since they pump out the same sweet bass response.

It has some nice features for small situations like you're describing. Also does nicely as a mixer for a starter studio. This model may fit your budget, but I'd also look at the 14ZED60FX. 4 XLR inputs may seem like a lot. On my first outing with this I used every XLR, and I was sure 4 was *more* than I needed. This is a terrific mixer - lots of features and intentional quality.

I would advice you to buy the monster cable by Dr. dre ($7.00) because the chord included does not have a build in mic and music sounds better with the monster cable.

This is a good mic,no doubt, but I would go for a E935 or a Shure Beta 58 for extra high end.

I just got the Emotiva XPA-5 to drive M70 fronts, CS2 center, and M60 surrounds. The difference over my Onkyo TX-NR808 is quite amazing! If you're on a budget the XPA-5 is a good choice. If you have a lot more to spend I'd look at Adcom, Sunfire, and Parasound equipment. I haven't listened to them but from what I've read you won't be let down.I still think the Emotiva XPA-5 is one of the most underrated products on the market. For the money, it's an excellent option. 5 year warranty gives peace of mind.

Using macpro or computer device DAC Magic Plus, (has headphone output) just only dac DAC Magic 100 (no headphone output. Or under $250 EMOTIVA XDA 2 (I am using it now) (headphone amp, preamp, and DAC)

Don't have a Mac, so can't help. BTW, I too liked the Scarlett, but at the time it didn't have MIDI ports. The Presonus has been great though.

For sure! Thats a great home studio preamp. Just be sure to experiment w mic position for the optimal balance, and observe the 3-1 rule when recording the same source w two LDCs (google phase aligned mics). While you're at it, google "mid side recording" - the M179 has a figure 8 position that allows you to combine it w another ldc or sdc for a huge stereo spread on acoustic gtr/vocal!

If you want to take the astro mix amp + pc headset route, i'd recommend the Senn pc360. That seems to be agreed on as the best combo for quality surround sound. Pricey though. Honestly, save money and get the u320's. You'll be happy with the sound.
