Im about to get get some hs8's from a guy locally, is fixing something like filter caps very costly? Any idea?
Iv never gotten monitors used so I have no idea whether its a good idea for or not. I have a someone noisy house I wonder if the unshielded thing is a true issue, I guess if it doesnt harm the speaker that could be ok considering how clear these speakers are. If I dont get em used I probably wont get em ever lol
