What's a good monitor these days?

[F5D]

Which ever monitors you're going with, use an analog volume controller for them (passive if possible)! I just got an M-Patch 2 passive volume controller today and the sound is now alot better than before when I used my 828 mk2's digital volume control. At the worst case (when playing at low volumes) the bit depth of the motu's output was only 10-12 bits. Now I get full 24 bits and maximum output signal from d/a to the mpatch2 and to the monitors. The bass is more dynamic, powerful, goes lower almost as if I had just added a sub. The highs are alot clearer and transparent. My BM15's sound just amazing now!
