As far as studio monitors, I'm very happy with my JPL 4206 monitors
(I use them with Hafler amp). They sound terrific at a 4ft distance,
much louder than they actually are. In other words, your body will
tingle to the bass but your neighbours won't. Very good for reference
too if you compose.
I also got some Klipsh bookshelf speakers, they were on sale and
I was relying on the Klipsh reputation. Big mistake, they won't
do well with big bass...

Subject: Re: Which Speakers??
paradigm from canada... I brought a bunch of HEAVY bass tracks on Vinyl
&
CD to all the audio stores I could find and did a lot of comparison
shopping. No other speaker under $1000 a pair could touch them (most
distorted quickly sending the salesman running for the volume knob
screaming "what kind of music is this???" trying to save their
speakers.)
mine cost $700 but are the big ones, you could get smaller ones from
$300-$500 depending on size.
I use them to check out which d'n'bass tunes will sound good in the club
before I go out and spin. They're very accurate and can handle a
shitload
of bass without distorting. Any listees who've been to my pad care to
testify?
