Adam A5's or A7's are the monitors I was talking about.
I know what you mean about smiling.
When you listen to a well recorded track on a revealing nearfield system.
The things you hear that most hifi's don't unearth can be amazing although a rough recording can be painful.
I like the idea of the ribbon tweeters on the Adams to give that life like quality to voices. It's the little nuances and half sounds just as people utter the words in a song that can really give you that sense of being there.
The other problem I have is that I like to extend down into the bass end of strings and this tends to mean a sub woofer when you are using small accurate monitors.
How are the Genelecs for extended listening, do they get fatiguing at the top end at all?

At the moment I'm usnig Event TR8's which are more of a budget monitor, and while they are ok, things tend to a little crazy at 2.6 Khz where the crossover is despite being bi-amped like the genelecs... With the sort of music I make tho, I need the bass to sound good down to 40Hz minimum...
