Here are my options. What should i get?

Will do! Just curious but when you say the JBL’s are harsh, what do you mean by that exactly?

They are revealing and if you have poorly recorded music, it might not be the most pleasant listen lol. The atoms are also revealing but don’t emphasize flaws as much like the jbl do at times

Yea I feel that transparency in the JBL’s is something I would value a lot with music production. Plus I was looking around and found a really good deal on them. I just find myself being attracted more to the Paradigms because its the best of both worlds. They have that transparency I need and yet still pleasurable in music listening.

is this a good deal?

IMO yes actually, that’s pretty good

Hey M0N do you know if the Paradigms get pretty loud? do they do well at loud levels?

They aren’t high spl champs or anything, but for me on a desk I could get them to fairly uncomfortable volumes and they seemed to still be pretty nice

oh ok that’s great. I’d assume the JBL’s are a better speaker for louder volumes right.

Yes I would agree with that

Which speaker would you have gone with between the two?

For more music listening most likely the atoms, for more studio the jbl

Oh ok gotcha. Thoughts on the Kali LP-6s?

Solid budget monitors, good performers overall for the price

Hey m0n what sub would you recommend me for these. Not getting it now but for future reference. Im willing so save up $500 or more for a good sub like you said.

For which speakers?

For the paradigms

Ah, well I would say something like a Rythmik L12 or Paradigm Defiance V10 would be nice

alright so the topping pa3 wont get here till june if i order it so any other recommendations lmao?

Hmmm, smsl sa300?

is this just as good?
