Foot, I may buy the Logitech's for my wife. She's getting into music mp3s and Home Theater big-time. Thanks, Mac! I have several Logitech products and have been very happy with them.

I got confirmation this morning that my MS40s have shipped. Amazon now shows 9 pair in stock.

I doubt Don would hate the Behringer monitors, I've mixed on them, matter of fact they are in quite a lot of music schools these days, also Journalism and Radio/TV production classes and suites.

Likely the Beancounters, brother.

After all, the Berry's do represent a good bang per buck.

And, as I was trying to say up there, they really can get the job done just fine.

I noticed that Amazon has some used pairs at $120. Assuming they haven't had all of the smoke let out, that's a tempting price.

Bob, they are on the way. I was thinking more for the wee missus. She will want some when she hears QVC and HSN (the Shopping Channels) through mine. Giggle! Really, she is getting involved in music and has a nice Toshiba flat screen and a new laptop. She's getting the bug for better quality sound.

Not to disrespect any of the previoid posts in any way at all, just another angle to look at the subject: $100 for a pair of serious monitors is not a lot of money. $100 for a pair of headphones will get you out of the average consumer grade stuff. I'm not saying that you can mix a hittecord using cans and I won't say it's imposdible to mix s hitrecord on entry level monitors.
Just a thought.

Mike, this blinking capitalist already has good cans. The management encourages me to entertain the other residents so that leaves headphones out. I have old ladies park their wheelchairs on my threshold and tap their feet in perfect time to the music. If I try to sneak a catnap they give me that familiar "Where's the beef?" look.

Haha, yes what a stupid idea! I mean, the title of the thread says it all, doesn't it?

You should've negotiated with the management to get them to sponsor your monitors

I didn't read every post in this thread, just focussed on the main question. I also noticed a lot of typos in my post; the combination thick fingers and touch screen smartphone for posting on the net should be reconsidered

The answer we were looking for is ...

Maybe they are not as well known as I thought (?)

Okay folks, got my MS40s up and running today, finally. Wow, what a difference! Excellent bass response and they are crystal clear across the entire audio spectrum. I can't crank 'em above 20% so I have headroom to spare.

Thanks all for all of the guidance.
