I don't have studio speakers but I have a pair of the mackies commonly used as monitors for djing...i run my whole pa system thru it and mix reason tracks thru them would you use them for stufio reference monitors....????

they're better than HiFi-speakers for sure (there's the mackie label on them ) but i don't think you can compare them with the top of the line mackie monitors!

in the end you need to decide if you can hear the lacks of those speakers to work around them..
