Here's one for all of you who play live, which do you prefer for monitoring, in-ears or floor wedges and sidefills? I have recently begun to use in-ears and there is a sub underneath my riser so I can feel the low end better. I don't miss having a wedge blasting me in the face at all and my ears don't hurt at the end of the set, it's great!

in-ear all the way!

I love it! After years of fighting with monitor techs and trying to enjoy playing music without permanently deafening myself, I can hear exactly what I need to hear at just the right level. It has taken so much of the aggravation out of live performance for me.

In ear are great. I learned playing along to records with headphones. So it isn't awkward for me like others have told me that in ears can be at first.

I've never used in-ear monitors. I know its the best thing for a drummer, but I don't even know how they work.
