Samoth- full circle

Still pertaining to ESP- I recently searched for old Emperor pictures hoping to see them in their face paints or maybe a glimpse of how Ihsahn looked like with longer hair, he, he... Yes, I found them but I also found out they started with ESP guitars. In the collage above, you'd see Samoth wielding a black M-series type ESP, we know these are the early ESP models because the headstock was the Jackson type design. He then embraced a BC Rich, mostly seen during the IX Equilibrium era, moved on to Jackson & finally back to the ESP.

yo sub,

why would you use monitors over bookshelf speakers?
i am interested in getting a pair to hear finer details in my CDs but not sure if monitors are overkill for the job.

bro :-) studio monitors were conceived to manifest more appealing audio details. computer speakers by Creative for instance, can do the job equally well for regular audio experience (CD) but not for guitar works.

Do you have any monitors to recommend? Im really stumped on this one.

bro, if you are using them for music appreciation, the desktop models are more than worthy. however, if you need them to double up as guitar monitors, check out the models by Wharfedale & Kurzweil :-)
