How much does a EPROM burning set you back around?
i got lucky w/ that... my cousin grabbed this from work... they dont use it anymore - so it was free

KRK's are over bassy, don't get them if you want accuracy.
They are perfect for cheap decent ear candy though.
for the price and for what i do with them i can't really complain. but they are definitely not super stellar. i also don't have them located in a good place. they're way to close to the walls in a corners. but i know how they sound and i'm used to the room so it works out for me.

Then you need a well acoustically treated room with good proportions to begin with. Otherwise it won't matter what monitors you put up.
this is very important and totally ignored by me. i just don't have the time / money / time to get it set up correctly right now.
Wow! I feel so little thing right now. I've just started making chip music and your set-ups are so professional compare with mine!! (Only have a Game boy advance... Nothing more...)

Yup, the most ignored fact about studio setup, usually.
I am trying to acoustically adapt my room to the best of my possibilities.

This is what everyone says, and is definitely true if you want a "flat" sound or are making a pro recording studio and especially if you are charging people, but here's a story to illustrate my experience with it.
My first monitors were NS-10M's (with an underpowered amp). They sounded like shit. After using them for a month, everything I did sounded spot on in the car. Then I got some Mackie HR24 MKI. Everything sounded TOO good, and after using them for a month, everything sounded spot on in the car. Then I sold it all and got some half-assed Mackie desktop speakers in a trade. After using them for a month, everything I do sounds spot on in the car.
Shit, maybe I just need to start mixing in the car.

Seems like everything will sound spot on in your car.
But you have a point there. I know ppl who make excellent mixes on a pair of socks.
I actually love the NS-10's, but you do need a good amp to go with it.
One thing I'd say though, if you're setting up a bedroom studio or whatever in a non treated small room, think twice before getting a sub.

/me goes buy a pair of mastering socks
Subwoofer is out of the question for me. As I said, I like flat sound.
I have learned for a bit to mix with a pair of headphones (Sennheiser HD25-II) but it's not the same, I want some speakers.
is that a casio DG-20 MIDI Guitar i spy?
that thing always reminds me of "boom king"
by flight of the conchords now. lulz...
ahahahah that video.
..btw it's not a DG-20.
It's just a cheap DG-10. (basically a dg-20 without the midi out/in)
I bought it on ebay.es for 45€.
It really sucks. It's totally un-usable. lol.

::bows:: if you can mix on headphones and come up with a mix that translates well.... I have some Grado's but mixes are unpredictable...
I am about to try this thing: http://refinedaudiometrics.com/products-hdphx.shtml

The HD25-1 IIs are very cool, unlike other "dj favoured" headphones, they don't exaggerate stuff and they bring a lot of detail to your attention. I remember putting them on and going through my old stuff and finding sounds I never heard before. Suffice to say, I did a lot of track fixing since then
If I make good mixes, it's for someone else to judge. Feel free to check out my releases
That plugin sounds interesting!! Thanks for the link.

@Akira: Plus they play LOUD!
I have a pair when tracking drums. Drummers tends to like them.
