Actually, I have a set of the Monsoons on another computer. I definitely agree that they are head and shoulders above any mainstream multimedia speakers I've heard. My first thought was to find another set on Ebay, but there isn't anything listed right now that caught my eye. I think I'll keep watching for a while before I pull the trigger on something that I'll instantly regret.
I have an old pair of Koss Pro4A headphones gathering dust, so I might as well give them a try.
I was really hoping you guys would try to convince me to go for the Audiobytes. I'm a little disappointed!
