Just ordered a pair of Wharfedale Diamond Pro 8.2a's, they should be here Wednesday. I hope I like them, *crossing fingers.* If not, I'll pay the $15 to return them... :p
 
I hope you do like them. I've been very happy with mine.

What kind of set-up do you have?
 
Onyx 1620 w/ firewire, Tracktion, and a few mics. I really hope these monitors improve my mixes. I've heard mixed reviews about the Wharfes...
 
Some vintage Cerwin Vegas and a old Mitsubishi amp. They put out some really nice sound, but I don't think their very accurate for monitoring.
 
youll love them. They are a great first monitor.
 
I've also been happy with mine. I'm in the process of improving my room acoustics so they actually make sense. :D

Room acoustics play a HUGE part on your listening enviroment. $100,000 monitors in an untreated room will still sound like ass, expensive ass at that :D

The wharfedales were my first nearfield monitor aswell. I noticed a HUGE differece from the step up from old Hi-Fi speakers but I also started to hear the limitations of my room. I've currently stripped the whole place out and am in the middle of constructing outside in walls, bass traps, slot resinators, etc. Do a search in the studio building and dislay forum or have a look at the SAE site under acoustics.

Yeah, pretty much what Lemontree said. I did some bass traps and I am in the process of finishing up with some Auralex foam to tame the flutter.
