    This helped me chose the speakers I want to begin with. I'm getting the Hercules DJ Control Instinct to start me off these speakers will help me out a lot.

    @ridgemills Před 11 lety +1

    I'd buy the big brothers: the hercules 2.0 80's. They've won a few awards here in Holland and in Belgium because of the price and quality. A real bang for your buck. (I have 'm too, although that doesn't mean anything of course).

  • @DjCalliber
    @DjCalliber Před 12 lety +1

    Awesome! can you hook it up to an audio interface so I can use it as studio monitors? where can I find the best price? are they better than the numark dj speakers you recently reviewed? thanks!

  • @Jubbadubba
    @Jubbadubba Před 10 lety +2

    Very nice underrated speaker set. Not true reference monitors, but still great sounding extensions for home hifi! I also like the hercules xps 80 versions of this. This one has a sku of 4769226 and is extremely hard to find aywhere for sale. I found it on amazon, an dyet noon elese has it. Yet the older model 4769227 - the xps 80 is readily available. I would buy either one. But avoid the regular xps 60 version like the plague@

    thanks - the bass was what I was interested in cos I currently have the creative a60s and their bass is almost non-existant making home producing impossible. How do these compare to the numark n wave 60? are they good for laptop producing? (I don't have a Hercules controller)

    • @digitaldjtips
      @digitaldjtips  Před 6 lety

      Closest we've done is a review on the N-Wave 580: www.digitaldjtips.com/reviews/numark-n-wave-580/

  • @kagemusikYT
    @kagemusikYT Před 10 lety

    Do you recommend these speakers for Producing as well? (I'm looking for some real quality speakers for Producing)

  • @RomeoEditz
    @RomeoEditz Před 11 lety

    Hey, i have a question hopeully you could possibley help me :) btw before i start love the videos ive liked and subed for more :) soo basically i have a lil home studio, have a mic, stand etc, and a xexyx1002fx mixer, an have only been using the standard like 50 pound computer speakers, but id like to upgrade my price range is abou 100- 150, as i dont really have a clue about the technical side, im a pretty much self taught learn as i go trial and error kind of guy, what speakers cud u recomend?

  • @thegoynextdoor
    @thegoynextdoor Před 11 lety

    How's the bass? Does distort (my bookshelf speakers do that, but they're not designed for bass)? Looking to wire it up to 2-channel amplifier for music listening and maybe some audio production.

  • @ddjthemultimusicalrapper

    Can you use these with an audio interface

  • @0000maxx0000
    @0000maxx0000 Před 11 lety

    How much do they weight?
    Thanks!

  • @GuyRandom
    @GuyRandom Před 10 lety

    Can I also put the master speaker on the left side and still have normal sound?

  • @liamm4687
    @liamm4687 Před 11 lety

    Do the cables for connecting to your mixer come with it?

  • @cmichb2395
    @cmichb2395 Před 10 lety

    When I turned off, the speaker emits a noise (arc?) Is this normal? Can it damage them? How can I prevent it?

  • @georgegarifallis5761
    @georgegarifallis5761 Před 10 lety

  • @Dubelectroify
    @Dubelectroify Před 11 lety

    @ofirlavi6450 Před 6 lety +1

    the monitors good for home studio?

    • @digitaldjtips
      @digitaldjtips  Před 6 lety

      They're decent but maybe not the best for production - for a small room to practice DJing? Go for it :)

  • @kriss6420
    @kriss6420 Před 6 lety +1

    Is it good for a music producing? I am a beginner.

    • @digitaldjtips
      @digitaldjtips  Před 6 lety

      Wouldn't get these for production, maybe something like Adam Audio instead: www.digitaldjtips.com/reviews/adam-audio-t5v-monitors/

  • @spowie330i
    @spowie330i Před 10 lety +1

    is this monitor good for deep base music like hip hop?

    • @alainmulder1286
      @alainmulder1286 Před 9 lety

      spowie bee No, the woofers are too small to actually produce a decent amount of SPL under 65 Hz.

  • @vukota334
    @vukota334 Před 12 lety

    Hot a question not related to the video. I need headphones and I have been thinking between JB Systems HP2000 Pro or Sennheiser HD205. So what do you recomend?

  • @eliotperez8672
    @eliotperez8672 Před 7 lety +1

    • @digitaldjtips

    can i use them whit my numark mixtrackpro 3

    • @YouriHL
      @YouriHL Před 7 lety

      A bit too late perhaps, but yes. You can.
      I've been using these speakers for the past 4,5 years and they still work like a charm.
      I am however, using a very wicked cable (these were 40 bucks at Tessatronic in Hengelo, Netherlands, where I live).
      A bit of advice, if you order this (or already have), the supplied RCA cables are CRAP. C.R.A.P. Do not use them.

  • @Il_BaStArDo

  • @giwrgosapo
    @giwrgosapo Před 8 lety

    Hey , can i use these for producing? ( i mean do they worth it ? )

    • @digitaldjtips
      @digitaldjtips  Před 8 lety +1

      +Giwrgos JoJo Apostolou It might suit your production better to hold out for monitors designed for the job. A somewhat pricier option we can recommend are the Yamaha HS7 Powered Studio Monitors: www.digitaldjtips.com/2015/02/review-video-yamaha-hs7-active-monitor-speakers/

    • @giwrgosapo
      @giwrgosapo Před 8 lety +1

      Can they be used for DJing as well ?

    • @digitaldjtips
      @digitaldjtips  Před 8 lety +1

      +Giwrgos JoJo Apostolou Yes, they're fine for at home/studio use, but not as a PA for gigs

    • @vasiliskoutso1997
      @vasiliskoutso1997 Před 8 lety +1

      +Giwrgos JoJo Apostolou Did you bought them? I want them for producing and mixing aswell. If you did please tell me if they are good for that :D

    • @giwrgosapo
      @giwrgosapo Před 8 lety +1

      Will get them in like 1,5 month from now (and i am thinking of getting the 2.0 80 ones)
      will reply when i do :) ( let's hope i will remember it though O:) )

  • @joriseikendal4688
    @joriseikendal4688 Před 7 lety +2

    please look in the camera lens, not to the screen where you see yourself. But it are good speakers!

    • @digitaldjtips
      @digitaldjtips  Před 7 lety

      Thanks Joris! This is an older video, we've upped the quality a bit in the new ones :)
