Great stuff. Man that's a killer amount of work to get together. I have tested my share of monitors from passive to active and currently really like my Neumann KH 120's. I have some Yamaha HS8's that I like for checking out my EDM mixes.

I had a pair of Adam's and loved them but found the upper register a little bright and brittle. The Neumann's don't have that issue IMHO. The Adam's are amazing but being a gear whore. The A3X's I had were great.
