I'm really curious about this. I have HS7s and I'm thinking of replacing them with HS8s to have more body. Would that not be the case?
I know from experience that the HS7s have more high-end than the Dynacord AXM 12As I use live when at the same volume. But I like that because it keeps me cognizant of the high-end of how my tone will be more shrill when I turn up.
On the other hand, I'm not entirely sure which is the more accurate one. The Dynacord AXM 12As are great and have a lot of body. I don't think I can really replicate it with monitors, but I'd like to get as close as I can.
I’ve go no experience with the 7’s outside of the minute I listened to them at GC when I compared all 3 sizes. I really wasn’t focused on them because as soon as I heard the 8’s, I was hearing all the stuff I was missing in the 5’s. They’ve definitely got quite a bit of body to them, there’s no issues there.
My entire issue is just translating what I’ve been dialing in on those 5’s for years now, in on the 8’s, in the context of a mix. Not solo playing or anything.
