RE: Let's talk about "Monitors"

' what makes a speaker a "monitor" '

I think it's just as you pointed out ... a studio!

really, that seems to be the qualifier

it used to mean a 'smallish' speaker that was ruthlessly revealing + ugly

so, a minimal crossover box that tended to 'beam' right in your face

that's been lost along the way and the term is just 'marketing speak' now

as you said, it's become synonymous with the term 'stand mount speaker'

and added in to lend cachet for 'accuracy'

with regards,
