When I saw studio monitoring, I immediately thought of the NHT M series. Of course,they are active but you could go direct from the Creek CD through any passive attenuator (NHT makes one) and then into the M00 or M60. I am using the M00s and they are very neutral w/o sounding dry. They were designed for monitoring and have a nearfield and mid field switch and a -10 dB attentuation switch as well for pro use. They accept RCA, TRS, or XLR connectors.
