It's just for a small room. The 8s would be adequate but the 10s is a better value.

I will probably have to end up covering all my walls with sound foam.

Don't buy that, OP

>Don't buy that, OP
Fuck, thanks man. That was a closey.

Srsly, though.

Is there some much better sub I should be getting for the same price or lower?

If you're gonna shell out $600 for a sub you might as well just get a good set of monitors, imo.

Subs are nice and all if you're watching movies, but generally for music you want everything coming from the same source.

I have two KRK rokit 5's that I just bought.

Are you actually mixing, or just using it to blast faggy anime ost?

Never understood the appeal of Rokits. They're coloured and the staple "monitors" every bedroom producer has. The second I see someone with a pair of those I instantly know they know nothing about speakers.

Might as well get it I guess if you're already this far in. The system would probably last you a while.

pls don't mix on Rokits

faggy ost
they're great for my small space. far enough from a genuine studio monitor that stuff actually sounds good, but you can still pick apart all those little nuances that are lost on lesser speakers.

Fair enough. I guess my reasoning if you buy that sub you've probably sunk around $800+ into the setup, which you could've got a really decent pair of monitors for that price. Maybe even some Focals.

I've been looking at a pair of Focal Alpha 65's for a while now. A pair would run you around $800 and Focal is a pretty solid brand. Worked on Focal Solos and Twins and hooo, they good mane.

Continuing, probably coulda even got some HS8s for what you'd pay for this whole setup,

The rokits were $550 for both, including extra warranty (yes, I fell for it)

I mean, you've got what you got. A sub would definitely bring that low end up. If you do end up grabbing the sub try to place it a little further away from where you'll be sitting.

It's gona go right under my table. I might have to buy some foam to prevent my screens from vibrating off the desk.

This is what we're working with here

Hmmm, yeah I guess it isn't really possible to move it much further.

In an ideal world you'd want your sub around 4-8 feet away from you because them lower frequencies take a bit longer to develop.

If the 10 is a better deal than the 8 you might as well just grab the 10. Having a system that can suit a bigger room is always a plus.

My thoughts exactly.

Any other input?
