Suggestions for a monitor speaker

Suggest ATC SCM12; absolutely stunning

I like the the ProAc ISc at under $2K, and the PSB Stratus Mini at about $1K-- both are mellow and easy to listen to for long sessions. Good Luck. Craig

spendor 3/5, linn tukan...for less than a grand...maybe pair of ls3/5a

Don't make a buying decision without considering the Sequerra Monitors. Check them out here:

Not "exciting" at first listen, but you learn to love their overall tonal accuracy. And, they have "real" bass - acoustic suspension - so they are much more room positioning friendly. They do vocals really well, especially female vocal and piano - the two toughest things for a small speaker to do without getting harsh & grainy.

Just my .02,

If cost is not an issue, the best "moniter", and one of the best speakers I've heard period, is the Kharma Reference Monitor 3.2.
