My apartment is built right next to the railroad tracks, and when a train goes by, it makes a lot of noise.
I'm trying to start a podcast, but I can't record during the daytime because the microphone picks up the sound of the train.
So I came up with the idea to clear out a room that is used as a storeroom and a storage room and turn it into a recording room.
After clearing out and throwing away the routers, scanners, broken amplifiers, and empty boxes that I no longer use, I set up the desktop computer I had been using a while ago and the monitor I had been using.
I bought a new 27-inch computer monitor for the computer I bought last year, and a new chair.
As a result, I moved my old computer and chair to the recording room.
The problem was the speakers for the computer. I pulled out my Bose speakers from about 10 years ago, but the sound quality was a bit problematic for monitoring recorded material.
So I decided to buy some suitable computer speakers.
I did some research on the web and found that the JBL ones had a good reputation, so I bought them on Amazon.
When I connected the speakers to my computer, the sound was very natural. The sound quality is clearly different from the Bose Companion 20 that I am using now.
I like the Companion 20, but it has a very Bose sound with a lot of emphasis on the low frequencies.
Compared to this, the JBL104 is a little lacking in low frequency sound, but I felt that it had a good extension of sound from the mid-range to the wide range, and I did not get tired of listening to it.
It's cold in the recording room, but I bought a far-infrared panel heater for my desk, so I'll be cooped up for a while, practicing my narration and working on my podcast submissions.
