Sounds like a solid pick. I just wonder if the noise is bothersome in the new models. Of course I can cut it some slack due to being budget speakers.

Undoubtedly a very interesting speaker. I could easily imagine them in my main system together with some well-integrated subwoofers.

Project Lone Pine - 2nd Wave
Kali’s celebrated LP-6 and LP-8 studio monitors just got a major upgrade. With improvements in the noise floor, output level, frequency response, and distortion, the 2nd Wave of Project Lone Pine are the best monitors you can buy for under $ 500 / pair.

Starting at $ 199
