================================
Seems the time has maybe come.
I got a decent Dell PC connected to the Digidesign Mbox and an MAudio keyboard controller. Much of the music is generated from a Roland JV1010 hardsynth, although I also record some electric and acousitc guitar. Also now have the room pretty well treated acoustically (thanks to some major help given here) with corner bass traps and a couple of broadband absorbers.
All along though, I've been hearing everything through these.....

The Mbox has digital output, so as far as new monitors that would seem to be a basic requirement (versus analogue-only).
Also from the ads around the web, there appears to be a basic class distinction between "studio" versus "desktop" monitors. My room is 13 x 15 feet, and is more-or-less dedicated to recording. I also have the current monitors up on fairly decent stands (although being so small, they look kind-of rediculous there). Assuming "studio" is the superior class, does my space and gear warrant going that route?
Finally, cost IS an object. Must remain under $500 for the pair.
Any recommendations greatly appreciated ! ! !
