    Are you looking for a very detailed monitor or more of a listen-all-day non-fatiguing pair?

      Monitors are usually designed for a specific task. What are you going to be monitoring?

        i'm definitely looking for a non-fatiguing pair. i'm currently leaning toward the statements monitor but would like to try a different sound since i already built the statements.

            I'm hoping that the Zaph SR71's I'm building are contendors... they're well within your budget... I'll letcha know when they're done.

              paper cones since i understand them to be smoother sounding. yes i am also very interested in SR71 along with the fountek 6.5" kit from madisound. i am curious as to how SR71 would justify its higher price with its inferior tweeters. i experienced with 27TDFC but having owned the statements, i can't imagine any tweeter being as good as neocd3.0 at half its price...
