I'm starting yet another monitor thread to avoid cluttering the other topic.

As I said my original speaker / desk layout did not work out. Consequently, I use headphone more than I prefer (and as being discussed on yet another thread gives you a somewhat skewed viewpoint). I am wondering if any of you have had experience mixing with speakers suspended above or behind you. Of course I can try many things - but I like to get input from those who might have been in environment where these things have been tried.

At the moment I am leaning toward trying the living room method of moving them around to the spots that seems to sound the best - and not worry about stereo imaging - or leaving that to mess with that at the end with headphones.



I have a little side question I have an older little Presonus HP4 headphone amp which sounds fine for my purposes. The one little issue is that when the mono button is engaged, the volume appears to double - is this typical of headphone amps?
