"Studio Monitors" covers a lot of bases. The best are thousands then there are Yamaha NS-10's under a few hundred. Any ideas on Budget and size?

I've heard the Rokits in a decent HiFi system (for comparison) and they sounded pretty good to my (and my son's) ears.

Listen to some KRK Rokits, I bought the 8" versions but had to swap for the 6" due to space limitations, for a small driver they pack amnesty punch while the top end is still bright and crisp.

https://www.thomann.de/gb/genelec_8010_apm.htm?ref=search_rslt_8010_336276_0 is this a good price? Seems to be (not sure) free delivery for the pair.



What are you using them for/needs?

If you need decent imaging M3 8s can be had for about £450

A solid 8" performer. Worth a look IMO.

DV247 sell Genelecs but also sell Tannoy, Mackie, JBL, M-Audio actives well within budget. http://www.dv247.com/search/2940/0/ProductPrice/As...

Not sure where the nearest DV247 is to you but they hold a decent range at decent prices. Best way to chooses any speaker is to listen to a pair playing pieces of music you know intimately.

I'll clarify.

Free delivery for the pair as 1 speaker was only £160 odd quid, under the £200 free delivery threshold.

Price is now £228 for 1.

That's a big jump in a couple of days.

I'd go with the M-Audio if they can still be got.

Amazon have a pair of woodys for £460. So the price is going up.
