i'd like to throw out a recommendation for the m-audio av 40 2 way desktop reference monitors

- they have a small footprint but feel quite substantial (weight and construction wise)
- they are powered and do not require an additional power amp
- they have both 1/4" and rca line inputs
- they have a pretty flat frequency response
- my home studio mixes translated remarkable true in an acoustically treated studio on genelec 1038's (head and shoulders beyond the 8 and 10" jbl and mackie monitors that i've also mixed with)

the downside
- they roll off drastically at about 70Hz (there is a bass boost but it just bumps the 70Hz a couple dB's it doesn't extend the range)

of course this critique is dependent on my mixing space and results can be completely different in yours
