I don't have a hell of a lot of experience with monitors, so take my advice accordingly. My first (and only so far) monitors are the KRK 5" active ones, the first gen. of these: http://www.zzounds.com/item--KRKRP5G2. I really like them, as my mixes on them translate very well to other sound systems. I mix in a small office room, and the 5" speakers are more than enough for my needs; they can get suprisingly loud!

Apparently I'm not alone in my opinion (though admittedly there's not a big representation of brands in that poll): http://www.studio-central.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=15977

Subject: [Csnd] Monitors (Yamaha S50M)

Hi All,

I'm looking to get some monitors to use and was wondering what
everyone's opinions are on the Yamaha S50M's:

I was thinking to spend around $800 and these seemed like they would
do nicely from what I've read, but I haven't yet had a chance to hear
them in person.  I'd love to hear anyone's opinions on these or other
monitors in this price range.

Thanks!
steven
