Originally posted by Rebel Brown Rann I was thinking of getting some Mopads for my HS80Ms, are they worth the money or would a cheaper/homemade alternative be just as good?

They are actually worth it. I've seen a couple of people try to make them with varying results and it's not as simple as just buying foam and bunging it under your speakers. The foam has to be the right density and type. Honestly I would just buy the mopads. They're like $40 and it's just not worth the time to fuck about making your own for that little money.

Thought as much. Thomann had some cheaper copies but after postage they were only �5 cheaper, so I might as well just buy some proper Mopads instead.

Looks like I need some foam for my stands then

Coming along. Girlfriend's dad gave me a free area rug, so I went ahead and put that in.

Also, per usual, forgive the shitty iPhone pics. The accent wall and desk are actually dark blue, even though it looks kinda black in the pics.

Still have a lot of "finishing touches" stuff to do... put up baseboard, trim, edge-pieces of the drop ceiling and floor, clean up the cabling...etc.

Looking good, coming along nicely indeed

Thanks! I'm admittedly pretty proud of myself, as I've never taken on a home project of this magnitude before... so all the little snags and mistakes aside, it's turning out pretty well. It actually "feels" like a room now instead of a junky cellar... so once I get the hallway/bathroom/laundry room/jacuzzi area of the basement completed, it will start feeling like true living space instead of a project...that's exciting!

Just having the "studio" part of the basement usable is pretty nice... I've been working on tracks again and it feels like it's been ages, but it's nice to be back into it. I've already scrapped about 10 projects because I couldn't really get anything going, but now I've got a work-in-progress (deep house track) that I think sounds pretty good.

I would be proud too, Yes this thread dates back a bit now which shows how long its taken, but Im sure its worth it.

Im jealous..

Well done!!

nice job tim the toolman taylor. something tells me those speakers are too small for that place, how do they handle? perhaps some sort of cable-management system would be ideal.

Hm... okay. They sound nice and clear and I don't have trouble mixing on them.... except the bass, as you probably guessed. Makes me wish I had a sub just so I could hear what I was doing.

I will think I have a perfectly mixed track, and then go listen to it in my car or something and can't even hardly hear through the mud.

Most definitely!
