Yes, they are a fall back for when the monitors are not an option, and they are not the best available, but they do provide a wow-factor when it comes to bang-for-buck.

Honestly even with the monitors, my studio is far from ideal or capable of top notch mixing, its just not an issue for me because these days when I get time for music activity it is purely recreational, I can't even remember the last time a complete track emerged from my gear. I can burn hours just trying to recreate a synth sound, or get a better understanding about the workings of a single instrument. Wish I had time for more.
