RE: Studio monitor volume controls rotation

Posted by Sumflow on July 2, 2012 at 02:09:04:
Thanks John,
It works off all the way left, louder +4, loudest -10. It is hard to believe a monitor used in so many studios would have the silk screen printing off and not have had it fixed by now.

When I set the signal coming through the computer to full blast, I want to know where flat is on the monitors to give me an idea where I am on the pre-amp. I don't want color from the monitors messing up the sound I get from my pre-amp. I would rather have the computer and monitors flat, and control any EQ from the McIntosh loudness controls. Why guess at something that can be known?
