Product Reviews

Clear, detailed, and LOUD. A total joy to work with. The monitors totally disappear and you find yourself skin to skin with the music. There is an exemplary degree of detail, but instead of overwhelming with nitpicky minutiae they instead invite you into FEELING the music.
They’re a snag bargain, too, in terms of usefulness. The obvious comparison to the MM27 will never be resolved; the 27s are more exciting and more bad*ss, and possibly more impressive to clients, especially for producers, which is something that has real artistic and monetary value - I feel like people are too quick to dismiss the importance of getting the folks in the writing/production room excited and inspired - but the stunning “realness” of the Two18 renders really good music at least as well; when the music is good and the technically stuff falls away and you’re listening to the music instead of two speakers playing the music, something magical happens in the listener’s brain.
If I was a pop producer I would probably go the MM27 route… but I’d buy a pair of the One18s to go with them ;)
Speaking of - the incredibly modestly priced One18s are probably the strongest competition for the Two18s. They’re a bit less muscular sounding, and the bass isn’t chest rattling, but if there is a difference in how informative the bass frequencies are between the One18 and the Two18, it is quite small. The primary difference is SPL.

The Benefits Of Mixing With Passive Monitors
11.30.2022Read More
Long before miniaturization made self-powered monitors with built-in amplifiers, crossovers and DSP chips a reality, passive speakers reigned supreme. In fact, active monitors have only become common in professional-level studios in the last few decades—and many, such as Blackbird, Power Station and Gold-Diggers Sound, still rely on passive monitors anyway. Certain passive speakers such as the Yamaha NS-10 have even gained a cult following among mixing engineers. Continue reading →
