Studio gear can be fatiguing after a while but very impressive initially - you really have to try them in your own room. Great for near field listening (which is what they are designed for).
Also depends what you listen to and your tastes in speakers. No question some active speakers are tremendous performers. The Adam Gamma in particular. Or the Harbeth M40.1 active's. Sorry just re read your target speaker group. Hmm try some Quad 12L active's - you might find them abit easier on the ear. Personally I don't care for uber revealing speakers (Pro Monitors). They just get tiring to my ears. -- tricka Transporter +/- Lavry DA 10 - LFD Zero - Harbeth C7 es3's "Harbethed" and lovin it ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tricka's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11614 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58179 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
