yes, most of the wharfdales are geared towards home cinema, but these are specifically made for production work.

The monitors i have used professionally are

Alesis active mk 2
NS10m
MSP5s
Tannoy reveals
Tannoy midfield
Ego sys near05
Mackie 624s
Absolute 2
Absolute 1

Monitors i have demo'd

as above plus

Them Tapco ones
M audio BX5 (same cones as the near05s...)
Behringer Truth


The list isnt exhastive i know, but out of all of them i would certainly rate the Wharfdales somewhere very close to the 624s.

Im sure someone will disagree with this, but i challenge you to go and give em a listen and decide for your self.
