These near-field monitors have gotten good reviews and they are not that expensive (around $300 for a pair).
Serious music engineers would not rate these as the very best, but for the money they are supposed to be very good near-field monitors.
Keep in mind that with near-field monitors, the frequency response is supposed to be flat in order for the engineer to properly mix.
When speakers have a subwoofer and tons of bass it is more difficult and, in fact, risky to mix audio on them alone. That’s why most music studios have 2-3 different pairs of monitors to allow the engineer to switch back and forth between the big huge bassy monitors and the accurate near-field monitors.

I may have to check these out. I have the MD7506 Sony cans, but have really wanted to get monitors. I’m sure my wife will love me editing with the volume up and blaring across the studio which is not fully sound proof. LOL.
I picked up a pair. They were 46% off. So $89 each.
Cool! And very weird that I didn’t coordinate the publishing of this post with their sale – it just happened 😉
