Does Anyone Use Pro Audio Speakers as their Main?

@engineears 

Bigger monitors geared toward mid-field listening or main monitors shouldn't have that issue, but they're not cheap. Just don't think that you can get away with the little desktop monitors in a full sized listening room.

Agreed.

Anything that's only for for near field listening is hardly going to work in a domestic setup and anything that can't get down to a solid 40Hz is probably going to need a sub.

For me, monitors aren't a way to save money, they're a way to get better accuracy and more control.

Yes, good loudspeakers do not come cheap.

Good accurate loudspeakers even more so.

But it's that word 'accurate' that's rarely ever mentioned when it comes to domestic loudspeakers.

As for on board DSP, I can see nothing wrong with having that option. In fact it's a growing trend for many domestic models these days of having some limited way of adjusting treble output built in.

Perhaps yet another approach is to look out for brands that produce models for both markets eg ATC, PMC, JBL etc?

no , too much treble usually ,, make the ear bleeding

@fac 

Surely that can't be right for all pro audio speakers?

Some of these manufacturers pride themselves on having the flattest possible frequency response that would make many domestic designs look positively skewed.

Their opinions are usually backed up by plenty of data too.

no ,, pro audio monitor too hazy  , too cloudy  and sometimes treble is high make bleeding ear   ,, i wish i have mini  h a  mer  to dest  oy all pro audio speaker
