I've been recording a pretty wide range of projects, but it seems lately my clientelle has been all "hardcore/post-hardcore" kids.

I use the JBLs mainly because the SL6 has great highs, but they have virtually no low end. The G500s compensate for this.

Acoustically, the room was professionally treated to have zero resonance and no audible reverb. I do all my tracking in the one single room. (building is hangar shaped with a flat roof and angled slopes connecting the roof to the walls. About 30' long, 18' across, 10' tall. Control room/isolation room is basically one corner of the building walled in with double insulation to block outside sounds.)

What would be a better setup for achieving solid mixes?
I've been fortunate enough to have a friend let me handle my mixing at his place until recently, and I need to rely on my home studio for my mixes.
