Equator D5 Near Field monitors: RIGHTEOUS!

Thanks... 

for the recommendation...going to check them out myself (will make a nice addition/contrast to the Event mid-fields I mix on). Jay

Interestingly.... 

Ted Keffalo, Equator's founder, was one of the founders of Event Electronics...

still waiting for mine to turn up. Hopefully I'll be able to agree with you when they get here. :)

A COAX based monitor for $300? You have GOT to be kidding! I hate this economy.......... :(

I tend to be impulsive wit things like this 

... and i just ordered a pair. I'm not terribly happy with the Samson Resolve 65a pair that I first bought.

I googled "Equator D5 Near Field monitors" and the first thing that comes up is this thread. I hate Google. :D

Sounds like a new standard to be had, provided the price stays the same - a good coax in this price range is a great thing IMO. Raising the price into the Mackie/Genelec range, or into the Dynaaudio/Adam range turns it into a blurrier purchase decision. Not to mention, it opens the door for Behringer to decide to "intervene". Car speaker: in actuality the reason I'm interested in these is *because* I've been thinking about getting a pair of coax car speakers - warts and all. It amazes me more studios don't use the Average Car Speaker as a reference. / $.10 // $300?
