[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 1009666, member: 59143"] I've not had a chance to listen to the M Audio's, but had a fairly good run in with the SS II's and even compared them to the much more expensive near field set by Focal, and thought the SSII's sounded great. The only 'negative' characteristic I could find, is that the subwoofer is a bit on the muddled side. But that's REALLY reaching. And I really mean a BIT. Hardly worth mentioning really, especially for their price. The one good thing about the M Audio's is that they're dual voltage compatible, so if you ever move to Europe or Asia etc.. they'll be good to go. Also, the Soundsticks have a much smaller desktop footprint, aside from the sub, which you keep out of the way in any case. On another note, I'd only have a Bose product in my house if it was given to me for free. I'd never pay the prices they ask for their over priced plastic garbage with BS 'scientific' patents. None of their stuff is worth the prices they ask. Not even half of what they ask. If you want to spend that kind of cash, there are much better options out there. There's a review of the AV40's at the bottom of this page: [url=http://www.tweakheadz.com/cgi-bin/zzounds9.cgi]Product Reviews of Studio Gear[/url] Here's a general page.
