Are you looking for them best studio monitors for begginers?

Best Studio Monitors For Beginners? Choosing the right studio monitors when you’re starting is probably one of the hardest things you will have to do, you will probably spend days or even weeks looking online at several reviews, and several tips trying to find out which monitors would be the best choice for beginners.

To be honest, it all depends on your budget, what you’re going to be using the studio monitors for, and also the size of your room, imagine putting the huge 8″ monitors in a small little box room, now that would just sound terrible! probably have your neighbours knocking on your door, or worse kicking your door down! auch! let’s not go down that route.

So let’s cover what you will need to plan many music producers skip this part and end up learning the hard way, it’s always good to plan. Check out more about studio monitors on our page here.

Set your budget for studio monitors

What you will need to do is set yourself a budget for the studio monitors. Are you in that 50 to 100 bracket? 100 to 200 bracket? 200 to 400 bracket? or 400+ bracket? Whatever your budget is please stick to it, don’t make a rookie mistake, and start looking at high-end professional monitor speakers by spending 10,000, wasting all that money to only spend the next 3 years learning how to use FL Studio/Logic Pro and probably even worse giving up with the hobby later! Be reasonable but don’t overdo it, if you’re a beginner we would recommend spending around 100-200 on your first monitors.

What you’re using studio monitors for?

Ok, what you will need to do is make a choice, are you going to be using the studio monitors for music production? audio reference? Mixing and engineering? plugged into your TV or pc? or for general gaming?

If you’re using the studio monitors for gaming, tv, or pc, in fact for simple and general things like listening to music, playing games, or just simple general sound output, you should not worry too much about the sound quality as you will not be mixing or mastering a track for some big artist who just spent 5000 so you can craft up their next big EP! so anything between 50 to 100 (dollar, pounds or euros) will do just fine for you.
if you’re going to be using these monitors for mixing, mastering, audio reference, or just general music production, you should be looking at spending at least something around 150 to 300 (dollars, pounds, or euros)

Studio Monitors 5″ 6″ or 8″?

This is the size of the monitors, they generally come in 5 inches in diameter, 6 inches or 8 inches, of course, the bigger the size the bigger the sound output and watts.

We highly recommend small bedroom studios go for 5″ or 6-inch monitors as 8″ would create too much noise, and it would be very hard to mix/master and get an accurate audio reference. 8-inch studio monitors would be for larger rooms something bigger than 5 by 6 meters at least, the bigger the room the better.

KRK Rokit range, they come in 5", 6" and 8inch monitors. If your buying the 5-inch monitors you might need to buy the KRK Rokit sub-bass separately to get that extra sub-bass kick for producing hip-hop or heavy on bass tracks, the 6" has more bass and it just perfect. Only get the 8inch if your room is large enough as the bass is very strong and perfect for mixing. KRK Rokit range would be perfect for any beginner music producers.
