I am a road warrior, have a pro touring company, and travel 200,000 air miles a year supporting many live shows. I am always in the hunt for great sounding and petite equipment when I am killing time in hotels.
Have owned these for a year. The entire product line rocks. Works well with MP3s--pitch perfect with an Apple iPod or Apple laptop. I like the 5's over the twos--fuller, richer sound.
You should also look at Blue Sky Audio's EXO product. Has a better nearfield soundstage, is a serious musician/studio product, and you get 150 watts divided by 2 speakers and a subwoofer. Sold through Guitar Center. Perfect for a small room that is den proportions. I got mine wholesale for $200 and none of my musician friends can believe the quality.
I also like the Logitech mm50--best portable docking station--$100 and blows away everything else I have heard--just throw in a backpack and go.
I own all three. Can personally endorse all three as best in class for the money. For my tastes, like the Blue Sky more for sound--very neutral with better defined bass. Hip Hop sounds fantastic on them.
