I'm very close to buy some studio monitors (tired of mixing with the headphones :-). Is the YAMAHA MSP5 a good choice?? (caus' they are pretty cheap.. aren't they?) Or have you dancetech users find any another studio monitors (not in the GENELEC 1030 price-class) that kicks more ass than YAMAHA's MSP5??

How about Alesis Monitor MK II's or Tannoy Reveals Actives? Having an amp inside the actual speaker really DOES make a difference. I have Tannoys and can listen to them for 18 houa day without getting bored.

Don't know what your budget is, but I'm very happy with my HR624's (the little brothers of the HR824's). I upgraded from Event 20/20p's, which I think were replaced the the PS8's (?), and were VERY good for the price. The 624's are a significant improvement, but again, the Event speakers are a good value.

Just my opinion but I personally hate the sound of KRK's. The sound is too coloured.

Ok, thanks for the tips. Now I have something to choose from

.
I've heard from different sources that Yamaha NS10 is the 'worst' monitor, and the next generation of NS10 is MSP5. Hmm..

The best way to find it out would be to listen to a lot of monitor speakers. And compare them by playing the same record on all of them.
I think the most important thing is that it sounds 'true' and not 'fake' (like home-stereo speakers do).

I didn't like 'em either. Sounded harsh and sizzly to my ears, but that's just me I guess.
