The AudioEngine stuff is very good, both good gear and good value. There are a lot of powered monitors in the <$400 range, although these primarily target professional music & recording applications.
I bought a pair of Alesis M1-520's for $199 last December. These are nice little monitors. See www.alesis.com for details. I just recent found a source for these refurbished for $149/pr. The finish is less pretty than the AE gear, and the inputs are 1/4" 3 conductor ro XLR. So you'll need an adapter cable to go from RCA to 1/4" Michael -- mgraves ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mgraves's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4078 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=44767 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
