is this for spinning? or production....

if just spinning, i'd go for the truths. reasons:

1) 8in woofer provides more punch in low frequencies
2) cheaper

krk's might be a little more "accurate" in terms of a flat response, but i find that they lack too much in the bass region. i used to own the truths for spinning and they did great.

Yeah mostly for spinning, production takes too much time and effort, which I don't have right now


Maybe some time in the not too distant future though I'd like to dabble in production, but at the moment it's a bit daunting.

rp8's.

hmmm, lets see here. behringer or krk? do i really have to answer this question?

shouldnt we all know by now that behringer makes total and complete shit, made to imitate actual quality products.

but that's where it's debatable...copying a mixer is much more difficult then copying a speaker. the behringer truths look a helluva lot like mackie hr824s but to be honest, you're not going to be able to hear much of a difference unless you are under a controlled environment. mixers on the other hand, you can feel the difference and therefore much more risky with buying an imitation.

for spinning, the truths are more then enough. of course if people have the money, go for the more reputable product, but then the original question was only asking between rp6s and truths.

having heard both these speakers, i still think truths have more bang for their buck in terms of spinning without sacrificing audio quality. rp6s are good studio monitors, but they lack the bass.

When it comes to dj equipment we all know behringer should never leave the bedroom or go beyond being your "beginner" mixer but their studio equipment and speakers are actualy quiet good.
Iv got a eurolive behringer power amp for my party speakers and this amp can be pumping for hours and it still runs cool and smooth. Its very good quality especialy for its price.

FUCK BEHRINGER!!!! if you have any common sense at all you wont even consider buying these pieces of shit.

I can't respect the opinion of anyone who says 'fuck behringer' - Listen you halfwhit.. maybe their dj equiptment is pants but the truth speakers are brilliant. My mate has had a pair for a couple of years now and they eat my £900 system for breakfast in every single aspect. So much so in fact that i'm selling my hi-fi for a pair of these.

For djing in your bedroom or even a rather large room you will never need to go further than the Behringers. They are good speakers and they are reliable. For £190 you really can't go wrong.

I seriously hope your not saying that you wouldnt be able to tell the difference between Mackie 824s and Truths. Dude, please. Under any circumstances, there is a huge difference in sound. You pay for what you get.

Looking at expensive monitors for mixing seems un-necessary anyway. You dont want a flat response for mixing, you want the mix to sound as coloured and as enhanced as you deem necessary. Good bass and mid response is desirable, but who cares if it colours it. Your not fine tuning anything, just trying to pick out important details to mix with. In that regard, the truths would be fine I'd say. They have a pleasant enough sound, just not a very flat one which like I said, isnt important for DJing.

Ahh, ignorance is bliss.


The Behringers are actually quite a good speaker, but as someone told me previously - they are just a very high end bookshelf speaker - Strictly for DJing, they are good speakers. On the other hand, if you are thinking about producing - you might want to reconsider.

Also, you might want to try to buy from a US store rather than a UK store because you might be able to get a better deal.

Heres a thread I posted in the Production forum in regards to the Behringer's, as well as Event monitors.
