Here...here...I agree...I learned the hard way to get some superb near field monitors and be prepared to be blown away!

My T2 and PA2XPRO both sound amazing through my Mackie HR 824's ...250 watts per channel ( L,R)(about $650 each). These things ROCK!

Untill I got these I did not get the sound quality of the instrument.
I think you can get a pair of good monitors for about $1,000.
