Main purpose right now is to use it for my POD HD500. My signal chain is something like:
Guitar/Bass > POD HD > Echo Audiofire 2 via XLR to Balanced TRS > Active Monitors via Balanced TRS to whatever is the monitors' input
Other purposes includes mixing and mastering as well as general use for music and movies etc. Music and movies are pretty secondary, I don't care much about that, most important is transparent sound for amp sims and studio monitoring.
So far I have identified a few recommended monitors:
KRK Rockit RP5
ESI nEar05
Wharfdale Diamond Pro 8.2
Acoustic Energy AE22
Budget is about $400-500, probably no higher. Any advise is greatly appreciated.
