Someone mentioned using crappy speakers to monitor your mix. I think it was George Porter I heard in an interview say that the Meters would line-in to a little jam box with 2" speakers to monitor those old classic funk hits. The idea was that most people would be listening to the songs on a car stereo, which back in the 60s and 70s weren't very good. If it sounded good on the jam box it would sound good in the car. I guess these days most people listen to music on wireless ear buds. I've always heard that monitoring a mix on ear phones was a no no. So I don't know lol.

Even high end studios keep crappy monitors around. They want to know that things sound good on all kinds of speakers.
