Best speakers for a computer
Get yourself a pair of powered monitors. Whatever fits your budget. Yamaha HS5 are a tried and true option, that's what I personally use.

Headphones that sound like a HiFi?
Absolutely agree with this. My studio combo is Yamaha HS5 Monitors and Sony MDR-7506 monitor headphones. This combo is really unbiased and when I switch between them, the difference is small. If you mix using a particular HiFi then it will only sound great in that HiFi. every HiFi manufacturer build

Why do people say Yamaha HS5 (or the entire HS series) is uncomfortable to listen to?
Yes. But the HS5 does have a boost around 1khz. Which compared to a speaker (or headphone) which has a more neutral mid-range response could make them seem a bit shouty. And they're a little bit too flat. People tend to perceive speakers (even studio monitors) that have a little bit of tilt in the f

O que usar para tocar com pedaleira?
IR’s reproduzem o timbre de gabinetes (caixas específicas, alto falantes específicos, cujos sons são capturados por microfones específicos). Imagina você plugar a guitarra em um cabeçote Orange (pre amp e power amp), ligar esse cabeçote em um gabinete com dois alto falantes de 12” Orange, depois mic

New guitar, who dis Amp?
You want a FRFR speaker (for example, HeadRush, Valeton) or a powered studio monitor (for example, Yamaha HS5). Your GP-200 already acts as a preamp/amp.

Speakers for my DDJ-FLX4
Lot of bass = big speakers. And these aren’t cheap. For learning you really don’t need a ton of bass. I think ur budget is pretty low tho. Lowest id probably recommend would be a pair of the Mackie 5 inch studio speakers (200 for a pair). You could also get a single Yamaha Hs5 (also like 200) and pl

I'm 90% there, what else can I get dialed in
They are the best i've heard under 600, definitely a little bit more balanced than something like a yamaha hs5 which tends to emphasize the mids a little bit more. I have a subwoofer as well but it's just for the really low end, the speakers have a surprising amount of low end
