My point is kinda both. Get very good literal "reference" quality sound at a very affordable price. Hypothetically. Mackie was just an example but Yamaha, JBL, Behringer, Genelec etc could be substituted of course.
Of course, the design of studio monitors is intended for mixing, but in that lies their strength for reproduction, within limits of course. Some are less likely to sound the same out of a nearfield environment. I know some popular home speaker brands across the pond were born from a studio product beginning. Leema Acoustics springs to mind with their Xero speakers.
Axiom makes good speakers, good amps......hmmm. Why not offer a fullrange "wireless" speaker system modelled after monitors?
Who wouldn't want to own a pair of "M80 Pros"
Say goodbye to amps sound the same/different arguments. We will have to argue about preamps! Ha!
Heck, you could just connect them up to multichannel rca outs on a bluray player...... what preamp. Scheming.......
