Please can someone suggest any good pair of active monitors?
Not over 300 Euros please.
Thanks

KRK Rokit 6's

by far, hands down, best in that price range are Tascam VL-X5. They will have those KRKs for breakfast.

Seriously amazing for that price. The only game in town for that price, actually.

I`m quite satisfied with a couple of ESI Near 05 experience. Cheap and
sounding fairly good.

I`m thinking of swapping these for a pair of NHT M00.
Anyone know these? Any good?

I don't understand why people like those KRK monitors. I think they sound dull, not transparant enough and they lack linearity. But don't let yourself be disturbed by my words.

Save up and buy a good pair of Tannoy's. It's worth waiting to get a good pair of monitors. I've learned all too often, you get what you pay for, including sub-par monitors.
