I'm just getting my home recording studio, and i have everything except monitors and mics. I heard Tannoy Proto J Plus monitors were very good, besides being inexpensive.
I was also wondering.. the only mic's I'm familiar with are shure's.
Should i got with an AKG or a Behringer? Any specific models? I figured 2, one for vocals and one for micing instruments. Trying to keep them around 200$ or 300$.
Help me out, here.

Jul 11, 2004 11:28 pm Hey Jues! Good to see you typing again! Long time. Wondering bout you!
And yup reiterating Jues, AKG is definately a better choice than Behringers for small diaphram condensors. Oktave makes an 012 small D. that is nice usually. Not a great amount of QC goes into those however. Most are real good. Rhode also makes an NT5 I think if I remember right that is a good small d.
