Thanks a million for all the replies guys. I really appreciate it and the feedback from CM30 owners is certainly very positive.

I'm actually the manager of a music instrument retailer but unfortunately we don't really stock small monitor style speakers

I am actually hoping to get a Roland RD700sx digital piano so I want something punchy that will allow me to simply plug this up and a mic and crank the volume up at home and get back to ENJOYING playing rather than pressing buttons, learning the ins and outs of new VSTs etc..., but thats another story for another day!!

Thanks again guys, I'll make my decision very soon and report back with my findings.

Cheers
