First off, I would like to introduce myself! I'm a new member here at the Head-Fi forums, although I've perused the information available for many months now. I'm a drummer, gamer, and budding audiophile.
Anyways, I recently treated myself to a new turntable to play the records I've had lying around for a long time and it got me wanting to build a nice listening environment in my bedroom. Currently I'm running all of my computers and turntable through a set of Klipsch 5.1 computer speakers, but as I'm getting into more mixing and music composition lately I feel like I deserve a set of studio monitors. I would be running a desktop computer, my Macbook, my turntable, and maybe a source switchbox for some game systems through them. If I got a set of powered monitors, I think all I would need is a little desktop mixer to run the sources into, correct? And that leads me to my question: what monitors and mixer should I get for >$300 to make a solid audio setup? I'm sure this question has been asked over 9,000 times, but I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!
