I'm thinking about investing in a set of in-ear monitors. I know nothing about them. The guys in the band have talked about it forever. If I'm going to take the plunge I want to know as much about cost vs. options/pros vs. cons as possible. Do any of you guys use in-ears or know anything about them?
They have also talked about striking amps, using in-ears and direct units. I'm a guitarist turned bass player for the gigs and the $$$. I love the sound and feel of amps. Especially the bump of big bass amps. I usually play loud just for the bump. If anyone has any ideas about a good/great bass direct unit that would sound like my Ampeg 8 x 10 I'd appreciate the suggestions.
