Adam A7 with Adam Sub 8 or BLUE SKY PRO DESK SYSTEM 2.1?

Which one is better for my small home studio (untreated room... :( ?
Price is the same... I cannot hear Blue Sky's, because it isn't in stores here, I can only buy it via internet...

Thanks!

Hi Siegfried! Have you heard the Adams in person? How you like them? Do you feel the need for a sub with the Adams and if, then what kind of music you do?

I'm thinking about the A7's myself and checking out the BlueSkys as well. I can't demo anything but Genelecs here in Finland... Sucks!

I haven't heard A7 yet, but here in Czech Republic there is new distributor of Adam, so I'm going to hear it. The problem is that I'm not experienced on monitors, I want to buy my first decent monitors for about 1000 euro. I'm doing electronic music with many acoustic instruments, dirty guitars, choirs etc... something like industrial noise gothic metal + gentle and sweet triphop + clicksandcuts... ,) so big bass response are important for me...

I don't think you'll get an answer to that question that could be described as definitive.

I haven't compared the two systems, but I did write a detailed Review of the Blue Sky ProDesks that might be helpful background reading for you.

Hello Siegfried:

If you are interested in purchasing or evaluation a ProDesk 2.1 system, please e-mail me your contact information. I will see what we can arrange through our main EU distribution office in Germany.

Cheers!

Siegfried,

I use Adam A7s, and I think you'd be surprised how much low end you get out of them. If it helps your bottom line, I think you'd be fine without the sub.

Just my 2 cents.

this is probably one of those rare times where you probably can't go wrong on the purchase of either (a7's or blue sky).

next on the list should be some treatment. then you'll REALLY find out how relatively beneficial the purchase was.
