that's true, they are kind of one in the same in my mind for what I'm
doing. that is, to make the sound as natural as I can is to hear the
detail that wil aproximate what I think the original may sound like.
That's one way to look at it. The other is to say that you want to hear
the mix as the mixer intended it, but they kind of overlap too. Am I
reading your message right at all?

Dave,
I don't know exactly what kind of restoring you are thinking of doing, but one
thing I will throw into the mix is that your
goal probably isn't going to be to get the most natural sound from any set of
speakers, it is probably going to be to
make the sound as close to the original as you can. That means that what is
most important is that your speakers can
reproduce sound with enough detail so you can hear subtle changes you might be
introducing when you apply noise
reduction and such. . Of course, if you are making recordings, then the need
is different as you will be modifying the
sound to make it sound best and it is much more subjective.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson

Hi folks,
I'm looking for a pair of studio monitors, or monitors that can deliver
me a flat frequency response, no enhancement of the frequencies so that
I can hear the original mix as it was done, for restoration and
mastering purchases. I have it narrowed down to two, maybe 3, I'll put
all three options below, was wondering what sorts of systems people had
and why, whether active or passive, what sort of config they had, room
size and setup, things of that nature. I realize that the bottom line
comes down to what the individual sees as the ideal setup. I haven't
listened to any of them and will of course do so before making my final
decision.
1. the neumann kh 120
2. adam audio, a7x
3. the maybe. the blue sky one 2.1 system.
I've been talking to the folks at
www.vintageking.com
and they sell all three setups, the blue sky they weren't too keen on
and the adam audio one sounded, according, to this guy, not as natural
as the neumann speakers.
