I have a subwoofer now for my computer audio system. It is a Yamaha HS8s. With this subwoofer's 8" woofer, I won't need the HS8, but could use the HS6 or even HS5, correct? I don't want to splurge on these to get the big boxes when the smaller units would sound better than having all 8" woofers, right?
I have a set of powered studio monitors now with a 6" woofer, and it seems to do just fine in the bass dep't. Does anyone have any hands on experience with the HS8s subwoofer paired with the HS8 monitors? Is it too much bass?
Is there any benefit to getting a pair of "non-studio monitors"? I have seen pairs of JBL and Klipsch self powered speakers that may be better suited to use as a computer sound system as far as many commenters on here go. How am I going to see if the speakers/monitors are better suited for my use without having to purchase and return/keep?
bootster1My local Guitar Center has a room for testing studio monitors and they have all 3 sizes of Yamaha HS*'s. You could call around and see if someone near you has something similar.
