is there a way to test the frequency responce on normal speakers?

hi, moniter speakers are on my list of things to buy, but they r after a 3 gig computer so it might take a while. so atm im using these hi fi speakers that were in my room that i havent used in ages. because there isnt much point in using subs to produce with, as you obviously dont get a good sound from them. so far ive learned that you need a moniter with the "flattest" frequency responce. but there is no information on these speakers as to the frequency responce. is there any way i can test the frequency responce?


any help is apreachiated (and so would spelling lessons ). thanks in advance.

Are you trying to find the frequency response for your current speakers or ones that you want? Because I know you can find them in the specification part of the manual or on the manufactures website in most cases. Please tell us what you are looking for because im also wanting studio monitors without breaking the bank.

The frequency response won't tell you what level of "flatness" the speakers have but rather what frequencies they will play. The problem with hi-fi speakers isn't that they don't necessarily respond to all frequencies but rather they represent some frequency ranges more than others. For example, the bass might be heavier to make them more popular for younge people playing dance music.

There have been a few threads lately about monitors, some of which I think are still on this 1st page, so have a read of them as there is some useful info in them.

im trying to find the flatness of my current speakers. they r probably shit cus they r from a hi fi, but i figure they will give out a better responce then a pair of 12" subs. they are form an old stereo as well, so i dont have the manual and they dont seem to have a site.

Easiest way is to listen to lots of pro quality cds thru the speakers. Than just try and copy them.
