Hey, list, So, I'm in the market for monitors with a budget of approx $1000
I have a pair of Tannoy Reveal available for abour 500 Euros (approx. 700 USD). They are active and provide a solid, sober sound, up to mid/higher loudness levels. The only issue to me: they are a bit too sober. My first mixes with them tend to sound overdone especially in the higher ferquencies if played on common Hifi-equipment.
(CAD in my case) and I've been trying to do my homework about the better known models and brands in the last couple of days, mainly thanks to SOS's excellent series of reviews. I need small monitors, both because the room I work in is small accoustically, and because my actual space real-estate is very limited.
Well OK, the Tannoys are not the smallest speakers imaginable. But they sound even bigger than they are and in the end I always found enough space to mount them. Since they are active you also do not need to provide space for a usable amp...
As of now I have them in about 1.2 meters from my head while sitting in front of the screen.

Anyway, it suddenly occured to me to ask on this list what my fellow Linux Users are favouring these days. Cheers, S.M.
