Older polk speakers as "B" monitors?

I found some older Polk Monitor 11s at goodwill and those are not only big, but staying in my room cause they sound great-and are big. I then picked up some monitor 10s (slightly smaller) and I don't really have any room for them in my room( they were cheap as well what can i say, i buy stuff), and was wondering if they'd make a good monitor?(hell the're called monitors, haha) I usually use KRK V4s but those are a bit small and light on bass, and sheer loudness. Should i move the monitor 10s downstairs and try them as "b" monitors?

I wouldn't replace your KRK's with them, but I don't think it ever hurts to have some other sources to check your mixes with. I was in a studio that had a boom box they could hook up and check mixes with. That and a little shelf system in the lobby the could patch to also. They did this once they were about done to double check things.

i'd say go for something a little more lo-fi for a set of B monitors. We incidentally had a pair of huge Polk Audio speakers acting as monitors in a B studio I worked in, a room we used mainly for editing. As far as mixing goes it was one of the most miserable monitoring situations I've ever encountered:p
