your best bet would be to go to a music store and listen to the results and see which output you feel better with or if music stores in your area aint doing that then maybe there are music technology conventions or something where u could
i dunno what they specifically have in USA but in UK we got Sounds Expo every year around the end of febraury. see if u can find info on those sorta things happening in your area |
