I ran around doing a good bit of comparrison when I wanted some actives under $1k. I ended up getting the Event 20/20 BAS, which I do not think they make anymore. However, I compared them to the KrK's, Mackies, Alesis, Tannoy "Reveals" and a few others, and preferred them for spread of field, low end response, and tightness in the mid-range. They do seem to have a little more fatiguing upper-mid and high end reproduction than some others, but overall I remain happy with them in my arsenal.
Best,
KT
