Point to Point III - Debra Soule

Rip Rowan

Once a year I write an article about a recording project, picking out one song and exposing the entire recording process from start to finish. The first Point to Point article covered an alt-country band called Four Mile Mule and their amazing niche hit, "Black and White Movie." It was released in 1999 and became the most popular article on ProRec.

Ten Powered Nearfields Reviewed

Rip Rowan

The last three years have been exceptionally good for powered loudspeakers. This is good and bad. Good, because there are so many excellent choices now. For the most part these speakers all sound great, and they're generally better than most of the midfield monitors available ten or so years ago.

KRK V8

Rip Rowan

The KRK V8 is a biamplified system with an 8" woofer and 1" silk dome tweeter. Probably the most remarkable attribute of this system is its unusual gold-colored woven Kevlar woofer cone. The system is ported with a long, narrow port that extends across the bottom of the cabinet. The cabinet has the typical KRK look with it's stone-like Zolatone coating.
