Studio monitors sound thin compared to headphones
Two things; headphones are never going to be as flat as monitors can be and will always have some form of hyped bass, and the monitors you have struggle with what you're trying to do.

Studio monitors sound thin compared to headphones
Yeah I kept seeing people say how great they were ... guess not. Stop relying on what people claim about speakers based on their personal anecdotal evidence. Look at objective measurements instead to evaluate speakers. The lack of a crossover in the HS4 resulted poor directivity, which could be part

I have tested Yamaha HS3 & HS4. Don’t let these little speakers fool you. I got them because I use to have the legendary NS10s. All the major has studios has them to this day. There no longer available. I didn’t like them because they lacked bass. I would have visually look at the woofer’s movement
