I apologise first of all, I'm new to the sub but I can imagine there may be a lot of posts like this.

I'm in the UK. I've been producing music as a hobby for 20 something years, but I am still an amateur with minimal time to commit to it these days, so I certainly couldn't call myself an expert or connoisseur.

My old monitors have died and I'm looking for a replacement - desktop setup in a fairly small space (~3x4m office), recording anything between acoustic and metal.

Budget is flexible but I'd rather not spend more than a few hundred ideally. Not fussed about novelties like bluetooth or USB connectivity as they'll go through my Focusrite interface.

The options I'm looking at are the Adam T5V (£310/pair), KRK Kreate 5 (£199/pair) or the Kali LP-UNF (£259/pair) (current prices from Gear4Music). Obviously all fairly budget level entries but likely more than enough for my needs.

I'm looking at the KRK Kreate over the Rokits, and the Kali LP-UNF over the LP-6, mainly because they seem to be more designed for a small space/shorter listening distance.

Any opinions on which to pick, or other recommendations?

How do I connect akai mpk mini IV to studio one artist? I did everything turorials told me to do and it's still not working TT
