Check this entire thread, but I'd again recommend some Behringer Truth B2031A speakers. You can get a pair for under 400 shipped. Best bang or the buck out there, monitor-wise.

Ok I looked them up and they look pretty good to me. If I have a JBL EON speaker and another Mackie powered speaker plus a little sub for my djing could I still add these....?

You could add them as personal monitors but they'd be way overpowered by the bigger PA speakers.

I just picked these up because of a recommendation from my friend who is in a band.

When I heard them at guitar center I was floored. 1000W powered $650 each. Bass like you will not believe. Accurate as a studio monitor but loud enough to play any house party or lounge. No hiss either for such a huge amp. Weigh 25 lbs. each.

Take a listen when you go to guitar center. Bring your iPod and a mini to RCA adapter since these bad boys have RCA ins.

You will have to hear it to believe it.

Oh yeah. In 15 years of djing I haven't heard any speakers like these. When you hear them... You will get that club sound you are looking for. No BS just read the reviews.

Everyone here should at a min take a listen.

There are alot of decent speakers out now. These have the sound that we have been searching for since the beginning.

Damn so these would go perfect with my Mackie and JBL PA speakers yeah? Thanks for the heads up man!

Last night's house. Party was only getting started when I showed up with the K8 speakers.

Assoon as hooked them up people almost imediately started getting up to dance. For some reason the sound coming from these presses some button with people and magically they begin to move.

Even not so danceable songs had a beefy sound.

Crazy can't say enough about them.

Behringer products are cheap mass produced trash, for $400 you can get such better monitors. Mackies, JBLs, and KRK are all much better choices. Check out this super cheap pair of Mackies I'm selling on eBay, they've got less than 5 hours of use on them, original boxes + warranty too.

I've been using RP5s for production and for general listening for a few years now. They are more of a glorified hi-fi speaker and hopefully the Mackie HR824s they're being replaced with will actually let me do some solid mixing. Fuck KRKs low end.
