Yamaha hs80m or Tannoy 800 monitors

Post by jrech »

If you had a choice for a monitor, would you get the Yamaha hs80m, or a set of Tannoy 800 monitors? Why would you choose one over the other? Do you have another preference? I have a set of the Tannoy 800's, but I am not sure I am digging them, and I am thinking of trading them in for something else.

Thank you for all of the feedback and advice in advance,

Have a great day,

I am using Hs80m with motu 828mk2 firewire and this is very good product for long sessions. I saw this speakers in many profesional studios. Probably very good working "horse" and not very expensive. Users are also Mike Oldfield, Cloude Von Stroke, Restrike Studios,...

Thank you for the advice. I actually traded in the Tannoys for the Yamahas, and I am very happy I did. They sound so much better.

Thanks for the help,

Have a great day,
