17" was the first laptop i used for touring.... still got it but moved to the 15" core duo as it was more powerful... finally picked up the 13" as its much easier to travel with, easier to find space for in a club...

i use them for different things... macbook is now my travel / gig laptop

other 2 get used for day to day stuff and production work

Here is my studio. Very simple since I only use software, an Emu Xboard 49 midi keyboard, Behringer mixer and M-Audio BX-5 monitors. The PC is custom built and the monitors are Dell 20" wide screens. The desk is Ikea.

Heres a few pictures of my home studio (ie:Bedroom!!!!)


The obligatory Virus and my KS Rack


My Yamaha SY-85, Korg Electribe ER MkII and Rave-o-Lution 309


Soundcraft EPM12 mixer and Lexicon MPX550 reverb unit


Stanton T.80 turntable


My Numark Axis 9 CD decks and Beringer VMX-300 mixer (I love my Axis 9's sooooooo much!!!!!)


CD bookcase

are you finding a good balance between these two monitors? i myself also have the Adams but would like a 2nd pair of reference monitors(in the distant future) with a bit more punch in the 40-100hz range. were these two bought side by side on purpose?

your monitors stand on something, what is it and where can it be bought? ive seen others have the same too.

Is it not just reversed Auralex Mopads?

i need something like that, have problems with resonance from my desk

I have them myself, they're pretty good, you get wedges with them to angle them to your listening position, in the pic the guys are pointing up because theyre too low, mine are pointing down because they're slightly high. You may also want to checkout The Primacoustic Recoil Stabilizer i don't think you get wedges with these though, and they're a little more expensivehere
