Valgua Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Hi! What speaker would you recommend for an hx stomp user playing at home? The alternatives that fit my budget are a Headrush Frfr 108 or one single JBL 308P. I aim at putting either of those on a desk about 10-15 cm from a wall. Which alternative is best? Are there other options to consider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 If you're never gonna leave the house with it, get a good pair of studio monitors and call it a day. Stereo FX are glorious... you'll thank me later. Size will be dictated by the size of the room and/or the footprint you want. JBL LSR305's or LSR308's are excellent, and not terribly expensive. There are tons of good choices... these just happen to be the ones I have the most experience with. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 The FRFR108 is not really a bedroom speaker, it's a PA speaker, made to put out a lot of sound into a large area. When people use the term "Studio Monitor" they mean "near field monitor", made for close up use in a studio. Different tools for different jobs. And, as cruisinon2 suggested, get two. Much more fun!

MusicLaw Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 If your desk space permits, strongly consider going with two LSR305 rather than one LSR308. B&H Photo and likely other resellers just had the LSR spkrs on sale. Two LSR305 as compared to one LSR308 will give you a much fuller, wider and robust sound stage for backing tracks to play along to as well as for exploring HX Stomp's many stereo FX. FWIW, I have sets of both the LSR305 and LSR308 (amongst other spkrs) and they are outstanding near field studio monitors for their price. YMMV.
