Krk go aux 3
I believe you are looking for a decent bluetooth speakerAnyone have monitors/speakers they'd recommend for an extra compact AFX & laptop travel practice rig? I know headphones are going to be the best option for that sort of situation, but I've got those sorted, and would like something to use for situations when headphones aren't necessary.
AH! I should have thought to search in the FM3 section. Thank you.I believe you are looking for a decent bluetooth speaker

Yeah. It looks like the older version has aux in, so I might hunt one down on ebay.A different thought.

I have a couple of pair around but because they’re Bluetooth, I don’t use them for guitar
I swapped out my Dynaudio BM5a speakers for a pair of smaller iLoud MTMs. No regrets.Here's another vote for the iLouds. I have them in my home studio next to my larger studio monitors, and I think they are amazing value for money and size.
I must say, I prefer good headphones over small monitors for guitar playing.
May be worth trying those iLoud speakers if you want portable and don't want Genelec. I had a pair and they were okay for low volumes, didn't really wow me. But they are compact, should be durable for travel, and would be lighter weight. And they sell a travel bag which would be good. The 8010's were a slight step up but are twice the price.
Do you need stereo? You could also do something like buy one of the iLoud MTM speakers and run in mono, and then add a second speaker if you want.
How exactly would this work? Is running one speaker a dropoff in quality of sound? Or is it just a different listening experience?Do you need stereo? You could also do something like buy one of the iLoud MTM speakers and run in mono, and then add a second speaker if you want.
I think that would depend on whether you use stereo effects in your presets. Other things like panning amps or cabs rely on stereo as well.Is running one speaker a dropoff in quality of sound? Or is it just a different listening experience?
Many times I found that it is really fun to turn only one monitor upfurther down on the fun scale by going mono

True yeah. I have the iLoud micros which I think are cool. But if I was doing a lot of hotel traveling, one genelec 8010A speaker could be cool to tryStereo is a lot of fun especially for home use, but if you are on a budget or need to save space, a single monitor is just fine. I mean that's what we used to do with amps, although at much higher volumes.
I did not like these for mixing but they definitely fill a general purpose.Maybe KRK GoAux 3 or 4 are more suitable for your purposes. Not idea about the quality.
