Thx. Man, it sounds WAY better. Before the room sounded somewhat hollow... a lot of wall to reflect and the angled wall itself can be a worst enemy. So, this is much much better. I still want to get corners behind me taken care of and add treatment to the very top of the ceiling and side walls. But this is night and day... I actually underestimated how much of a difference this would be.

I want a better soundcard (audiophile 2496 right now), better monitors (got behringer b2031 now) and a better dj mixer (also cheap ass behringer). I expect a big check coming in, but I don't know when it's coming yet .. I'm aiming to buy a motu828 and some dynaudio monitors... Still debating between Air15 or the lot cheaper bm15a... I don't know... Maybe something else :P
well then if u want to change from cheaper brands look forward to a quality brands this what will make u feel the difference

Storyteller, I would make the Monitors the last priority - they're probably the best thing that Behringer has made.
The mixer should go first I reckon as it's a dog......
The soundcard (same as mine) is actually not bad at all but you do hear the difference when you use something like a Motu.
Sweet set up though - Have you though of China Cones for the speakers?

Yea I got the old ones, the first batch. They're better sounding (less bass-heavy) than those currently in the shops . However I'm really looking forward to something high(er)-end. I really notice the speakers are holding me back at this moment. They'e just not working for me anymore... Once I have new monitors these will be connected to my dj set :P

Probably going for a passive volume control or none at all again when I get that MOTU. I'll probably be buying it somewhere next month if I'm lucky . The speakers will def have to wait as a pair is going to set me back at least 2400Euro (max 4000E). Pretty steep price hehe, but probably worth every penny . I want it to be a long-term investment which will make me happy for at least 5-10 years.

yeas . I had the creative audigy (1) platinum before I got the audiophile. In retrospect the audigy wasn't worth it's price (250Euro), it kept causing blue screens, crashes etc.. The audiophile offers way better sound quality for way less. I love the audiophile card, my computer has never been more stable since I got it .
Really looking forward to the motu though, 4 stereo ins/outs and superb quality... can't wait

damn, that looks so sick...
tortoise - for some reason, i really like this mixer... but i'm still getting used to the eq, and the mixer in general. -i've tried recording my self mixing w/this thing, i hate how i sound, and i make mistakes i wouldn't make w/my other mixer.
i think i still prefer my pmc-55 w/the rotary kit, but i'm still having a good time w/the pmc-37.

Fuck. You just made me seriously jealous. Not only do you have a PMC37 which is a good mixer anyway, but you have PMC55 with rotaries - my absolute favourite mixer, and quite possibly the best mixer ever made.

A rare beastie too nowadays

nice to see some pmc-55 fans on here! =-)
the rotary kit literally changed my life. -this is the holy grail for me. =-)
it's a shame that the people i usually play with, don't like rotaries. i end up having to slap the fader kit back on everytime we do a party because the rotaries don't jive w/the derek may/stacey pullen/claude young way of throwing it down.
the pmc-37 is nice, but it can't touch the pmc-55 w/rotaries when it comes to smooth mixing. here the rotary is king.
