Hello.
Love the forum, videos, and measurements here!
I'm now hooked on the idea of powered dsp speakers and would love to buy a set for 5.1 home theater.
However, after what seems like millions of hours reading and watching videos, it seems that there are basically only two options of near field monitors for sitting a foot or two in front of - or PA speakers meant for garage bands and weddings.
The other ones, like the Dutch and Dutch, that actually seem like they are made purely for listening purposes are well beyond my budget.
Is there even an affordable far field specifically for listening and not music production speakers that exist for less than several thousand dollars?
(I was just going to buy the jbl 308 mk2s until I read that they were not loud enough, especially for what movies require, thus sending me on this endless research spiral that only seems to end if I spend my life savings lol)
