I favor Events & Tannoys.
I'm not playing them loud enough for them to distort, and the frequencies I'm assuming are coming from the tweeter and not the 5" woofer. Just EXTREMELY bright!
Maybe typical stereo loudspeakers are rolled off up there to make them sweeter-sounding?

i found my 5"s pretty uncomfortable at loud volumes I dont with my RP8's....but thats expected isnt it? i mean they distort quicker if the woofer is smaller??
yeah....i mean they shouldnt sound "good"...but "good" is a hard one to describe on the internet lol
Also, don't forget how freakin' important the amplifier is in the equation!
I don't use proper monitors. I have a logitech surround sound system plugged into the headphone amp of my Tascam us-1641. My studio is very basic.
I would say that near-field monitors are a poor substitute for some decent hi-fi speakers and amp.
