Studio monitor for stage piano 3

Postby Jaqpot » 24 Oct 2017, 20:29

Dear all,

I am about to buy a nord piano 3. I would like to know what type of monitor you would recommend for a home use.

I was hesitating between:

- Yamaha HS5
- Adam A3X
- Neumann kh 80 dsp

Any recommendation ?

Thanks in advance.

I feel that the Ayana's are a bit Harsh, I really like the Neumann, cannot give a fair recommendation on the Adam bcasue I heard them in a studio/recording/mixing set up, not for Paino listening but they were great on that configuration too, so, you could assume that they will work well just for Piano listening....I use the Genelec 8040 by the way...

I run Yamaha HS8's in my music room. I also have HS5's, but the 8 is so much nicer.

I have the Yammy HS80M which are quite similar to the HS8. I can recommend them as long as you position them correctly. It took a little bit of effort but once there they are great.

Focal, Focal, Focal... and for piano Focal !
Keyboards = Focal Alpha 65, 80
Keyboards + pure piano = Focal Shape 65, Focal Solo 6 and up...
