I have an audio sequencer. This software I installed for my own electronic tracks. I wonna buy some like studio monitors but really good for near distance. Know that active studio monitors better as for compatibility (amplifier+loudspeakers). I need true studio sound. Does it possible with little budget.

Please make an advice from your experience what would be better to buy.. active/passive (passive monitors require external amplifier) monitors.. Lets start from 150USD per each.. if available good sound..due to start price.
Thanks in advance!

So your budget is around $300.00US. You should be able to find these:

for under $300.00, on the net.

I mean its a start price. It will be more than 300 usd. Important the quality and true sound, but no priced at 2500 per each
One of my friend (radio technician) said me that i have look for monitors with a ribbon drivers (know that it has some lacks) - any suggestions?
Will try to listen Studiophile BX5a Deluxe ///

Here are some more suggestions:

Studio monitors are by definition near field monitors.



The monitors in the links that I have posted are used in studios everyday.

Please keep in mind that if you look around, you will be able to find them far cheaper than the listed prices.

For "true" studio sound -- meaning nearfield frequency response that is as flat as possible -- you'll likely want to consider investing in some sort of room correction system, be that measurement equipment and equalizers or monitors that feature some variety of built in room correction. JBL produces some reasonably good 6.5" monitors called the LSR4326 that have built-in room correction features.

I don't have extensive experience with these monitors, but I have done some work on their slightly bigger brothers, the LSR4328, and found them to be fairly good monitors with what I perceived to be fairly flat, accurate sound. Your mileage may vary.

There are also midfield monitors and "main" (far field) monitors.

For the original question, give a try to ADAM A7. Play a piano recording, and one with percussion. And a harpsichord recording. Beware, after that you may want increase your budget to $575 per monitor.

Ah, thanks for the info- I stand corrected. I am used to a home studio situation. To the OP, here is some info:

I like these a lot and they are close to your minimum price range.

Ascend Acoustics CBM-170 ($348/pair)

would need an amp or receiver though.

500 for the set new, you will never look back
had them for over a year
ever customer service is great, one fell about 5 feet.
got a repair/replacement.

they are great.

still never got an interface, so just using them with unbalance inputs, sound great.

Next week try to listen all models you wrote.
When I heard monitors with ribbon drivers I was surprised more clear sound. Its really due to technology. But this type of drivers has a lack - less radius of action (little angle). When you move more to the left or right side - fail preference of it. What you can say about this type of twitter.

AMT/ART tweeters are not exactly ribbon tweeters, but at least to me they produce very clear sound. It may have something to do with their very linear phase. I don't know. But as I said, I think that they really shine in reproduction of sounds rich in harmonics - this is why I suggested auditioning ADAM monitors with piano, percussion and harpsichord. Of course in general timbre (which is a perceptual quality that relies much on upper harmonics) is reproduced very well. I do not notice much problem with directionality of my ADAM tweeters, moving around causes probably more variation in the lower range due to room interaction, and obviously, in source localization ("soundstage"). Maybe it's more of a problem with classic ribbons. The other thing is that you typically would not walk around the room while doing audio production.

Thats true - think that will not move during production cause unnecessary
