thanks for your reply palm, i dont think they are monitor speakers they look very simalar to the tannoy mercury speakers but with a plastic front instead of wood, but i only paid �26 pound for them so theyll do just as an extra pair of speakers to hear my mixes on, i currently use headphones (beyer dt770) for my mixing but im splashing out on some yamaha hs80ms in a few weeks!

I strongly recommend against doing your mixing with headphones, very misleading IMO.
