Monitor Audio speakers have always been a favorite choice for me. Smooth roll-off the highs, very tight sounding bass response without being overpowering, and mids that make your favorite vocalist sound even sweeter.
Nice job of picking components that won’t break the bank.

Really – you found Monitor Audio speakers rolled off at the high end – not what I normally hear about them. What amplifier or rest of the system, source for instance, did you pair them with, or heard them paired with? Not saying they are harsh, but the RS6 I’ve heard had a slightly thin airy high end. Good if you were looking to hear the room in a recording, but definitely didn’t help with a black whole for a stage.
There is lot of PMP that sound better than iPod
for less than 800
For those of you who have trouble justifying big speakers to your significant other (like me), try the Silverline Minuets. They are small enough that they can sit on a desk and they absolutely rock. They go low enough that they don’t demand a sub but I recommend one.
Hi all,

Best Regards

I currenlty have Apogee and for my they are not surpassed even today in the planar range.
I miss said that full planars like Apogee is very demanding on room space and position
But when they are paired with a good power amp is IMHO one of the more realistics speakers
A few years ago change the olds ribbons with new ones (manufactured in Australia) and sound even betters than the originals.
More extended, transparency, air
For full potential the Divas must be actively biamped
planar speakers all sound wimpy and apogees require a amp you could use for arc welding to drive them properly. maybe there ar PMP that sound better than Ipod but they’re not tha good either. the Hifiman is a real audio product and with it’s versatility is a bargain reelly
