![]() Mixing, recording and producing contain many many series of events and variables. I know the NS10s are going to be wherever I land and I know when they sound good. It let's me stay creative because I'm not frustrated with other technical elements. I constantly surround myself with things that I know well and mix in a bit of freshness (new bands, songs, instruments) into my safe world. The main reason I will never give them up is simply a control issue. They are an acquired taste but so are some of the best things in life. ![]() I do think people should try them and not give up on them so quick. I don't need something to tell me that I'm better than I am.įor me, it's not "fanaticism". They're not flattering which is why I like them. ![]() Life would have been far easier back when I was working a lot. I seem to be in a tiny minority with that experience, and I can live with that. I can get a good mix on NS10's as long as I check the low end on something bigger, but it's not a pleasurable experience. Studios always had NS10's and something larger, and often I could not use either one comfortably. I've often been annoyed with myself that I can't get on the bandwagon, because I always had to drag my speakers around with me. I can see Kenny's point that they are a staple in so many studios, they've become a standard that one can count on. To me, they are NS10's without the harsh high end, and with a usable bass response. I still have 2 pristine pair that I use regularly. Point is, there are so many speakers available that I can use for 5 or 6 hours without getting high end burnout, why struggle with NS10's? EV Century 100's are a good example of an old design that I can use all night long. I always found them difficult to use for more than about an hour.
