Behringer 3031A's 499.99 for the set

The M-Audio BX8's 499.99 for the set

I would need stand or desk stand with the pads and the ones I like are 149.99 for the desk stands Totaling 649.98


Then saw this

Yamaha HS80M Powered Studio Monitor - with Stand and Auralex MoPads 699.98
OR
Yamaha HS80 Studio Monitor Package with HS10 Subwoofer 1049.97 with no pads and no stands but comes with the sub...

So many options

What I read about the MS80's was in Geer Stutz saying there over rated and not better then the new M-Audio.

Sucks cuz I heard the M-Audio BX5's and loved the sound they didnt have the BX8's they also dont have the Behringer 3031A's and they dont have the Yamaha MS80's so I cant hear either one of them. I called another location and they dont have them. Sucks cuz I figred they would have somthing like that they have the Adams but I am not spending 1000.00 on a single Monitor
Haha and see what gearslutz has to say about behringer monitors... Take everything you read there with a grain of salt- there's also lots of praise for them too. If you want the maudios then get them.

Originals? You mean not being made like NS10s? Yeah I would hope so, NS10s sound like shit and I would never want them as a main pair of monitors or anything that sounds like them as anything except a 2nd or 3rd reference.

HS80ms are some of the best budget monitors you can buy in that price range before spending $1000+ on a pair and certainly are a step above the two you listed.

Any incite and recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

M-Audio BX8 D2's Link
Behringer B3031A Truth's Link


If you want decent monitors on a budget then get Yahama HS80ms or HS50ms

Or Equator D5s which may be the ultimate budget monitors, though like the hs50 they are 5" so will be a bit lacking without a sub in the low end

I don't have much experience with monitors but all the producers I know use KRKs, or M-Audio BX...

Choose whicherve fits in your price range and that you've actually lsitened to. In your case i guess I would recommend the M-Audios

I have a pair of BX8A's and they are great. The have some very serious low end to them. I will say that if your looking for very "polished" sound you would get from higher end monitors, neither of these will provide that. If you are looking for good sounding, loud, with a strong sounding low end. The M-Audio's are great. They are loud enough I've used them to play social parties before. They are much louder and hit a lot harder than I thought they would.

I thought behringer brought out a new range of monitors after the B3031As, is there a reason you're not considering them? I heard a few reviews saying they were pretty good for the money.

Thanks to all so far. I am leaning towards the M-Audio's but will keep my options open keep seraching before my decision I looked into the HS80MS and read bad things about them being hyped up and not the way the originals were made
