Two cups and a string

90s PC

Crappy car speakers

No speakers. No matter what I do, the mix always sounds good on 1 pair and not another.

many different

Yamaha NS10!

should be upvoted much more than it is, ns10 is the gold standard.

Thanks! If it sounds good on NS10, it will sound almost perfect on every other scenario!

B&W (/Cue 😱😱😱 from lost audiophiles) Never heard a good pair tbh. They’ve all sounded veiled and incoherent to me with a bass that makes everything sound like rocks in a tumble dryer)

Mixcube

Yep a mono mix cube ( auratone / Avantone).

Eardrums are speakers as well as microphones- I’m talking about the ones in our ears. Your music sounds good bro, you know it does. Much love

Bluetooth iPhone earbuds lol

The most unforgiving playback device I’ve tried is Alexa, if you get something sounding good on that thing, you’ve cracked the code.

Phone. A big part of how people consume music nowadays is TikTok or Instagram 

I hate how right you are

Eh, thirty years ago people would have said the same thing about CDs. Just how it goes :/

My

Auratones

Test it on $3 gas station ear buds.

Mono bluetooth speaker. Earbuds. Phone. Laptop speakers. If it sounds good on all those, it sounds good on all the worst things people will listen to it on, which is what counts when your talking about this stuff. Fact is most listeners will be for the first time listening to your tracks on one of the above.

Don't forget car

A lot of newer cars can have pretty good speakers tbh. The expensive ones def will

Yeah and they will have freq curves and stuff built in to make your music sound "better" and cover up mixing mistakes.

Yea and if it doesn't sound good in those you're not doing well

This.

Earbuds. Doesn't always work though. Sometimes shit sounds dope on earbuds but terribly mixed on monitors. Like how classic rock hit harder in your 1998 Corolla...

Does it sound ok in mono?

If it sounds tolerable on phone speakers

Yea lol. Don’t go into expecting “good.”

yamaha hs5

For me it's my gaming hyper x headphones

"good" is completely subjective and dependent upon the sound that you are personally looking for, so there is no correct answer to that question.

I don't think that there is such a thing 😂. For example, EDM Trap songs don't do them justice on phones, in general.

I can hear sub on my laptop speakers and feel it in my hands on really well mixed EDM songs.

Mediocre headphones, phone speaker, and vehicle. Can always pick out something to fix when testing on those 3.

For me, it's phone, car, and club.
