Hey guys,
I'm buying a new PC this season.
I talked to a guy from Boxx, and while he was incredibly helpful I wasn't sold on the unit he suggested for the price I was quoted. It felt $500 - $1000 more than it should have been, even after their customized engineering. More or less, he recommended their 3D Boxx 4850 Series PC.
With that said, I read a great review about a workstation from StoneWave, the StoneWave Pro Studio i7 PC.
Why the comparison between these two? I'm unconvinced, and it's a lot of money. I record music about as much as I edit video, and I don't have the money for two machines (we're talking about dropping the rediculous $2000-$4000 as it is). The StoneWave is much more affordable, and doesn't appear too different.
I've built my own for years, and they never give me the longevity I get from purchasing someone else's complete, "engineered" unit. Has anyone here had experience using either a 3D Boxx 4850 Series or StoneWave Pro Studio i7 PC?
