Samson Mediaone 5A vs M-audio DX5 D2

[Lazerbacon766]

I do dance music and my studio is in my bedroom. Simple question, Which is better(and are they better than my numark pair http://www.amazon.com/Numark-NPM5-Activ ... o+monitors)?

Edit: what about this one also?

The Medias are PC Multimedia Speakers rather than Studio Monitors. If you want to replace your PC Stereo Speakers, go ahead. Anything other from that ... I wouldn't.

I can't find any DX5 D2, I only know about the BX5 D2, and they're solid entry-level (Home-) Studio Monitors. Nothing special to get overly excited about, but if you haven't got a lot of cash - they're a very decent set regarding the amount of money you put in.

srry about the typo i meant bx5 but anyway, what about the bx5 compared to the berigner and are both these pairs better than the numarks

Behringer have a cheapy kind of image.
They do things with an emphasis on cheap price,
personally my Samsons have really clear treble.
They are the r6a. I blew one bass driver,
and got it fixed. They do run too hot though IMO.
I would get 8" drivers mate,
you can pump them up then and enjoy the sounds,
as well as do critical listening.
Cheers

If you're looking at Samsons, check out their resolve series, not the the media series. I preferred the Samson resolve 5 over the m audio bx5 by just a hair when I heard them side by side at the store. I haven't heard the numarks, so I can't compare.
