    Cheers, Steve. I am mainly thinking about the Adam A7. As you said, their hiend stuff is the biz, and from what I've heard, these "low-end" monitors should be also great. At the moment there is a very good offer on these A7 in one shop in Prague, I think they are 450quid/pair. Problem is that I cant go to Prague just to listen to them.
    I have a chance to listen to the Mackies, Dynaudios, and probly also to these new Yamaha HS80M here in Brno. but it can be always very tricky to listen to the speakers in the shop with toally different acoustics than you have in the studio.

    It`s definitely worth listening to the adams mate.
    Their midfield and main monitors are total sex for the ears, very accurate even at stupid volumes.
    I`ve heard great reports of the smaller adams, but most of it comes out of real studio talk, rather than project and home studio reports, which is why you don`t hear so much about them.
    Really great speakers.
    Those tweaters are great.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    I feel like I am decided and will ge the Adam A7 babies. I will demo them in my place first and then I will buy them if I will like the sound. They are currently out of stock in Prague, so I have another 1 or 2 weeks to fall even more deeper into the articles, reviews and such things,hehe.. .
    On Friday I will finally go to get new soundcard, E-mu 1212M. They have probably one of best ADDA converters on the market so I am really looking forward to this new combination.. cant wait..
    thanks for the comments, mate. It helped me a lot..
