does anyone have experience with the Alesis M1 MKIIs? they're pretty affordable and seem to get favorable reviews, but i'm just not sure if i should save a bit more and get the Event TR8s, which seem to have a much more powerful bass presence due to the 8" woofers. i'm afraid the bass on the Events might be a bit of the..."cheap bass", you know, boomy and not very articulate. if that's the case, then i'd gladly save $200, buy the Alesis, and get a sub later on if they aren't adequate.
i'm basically looking for something good for a wide range of music in the $300-600 range, powered. i listen to a lot of rock, some electronica, a little rap, some jazz, and some classical. i've looked at a number of the commonly mentioned monitors in the price range from a wide variety of brands including M-audio, Alesis, KRK, Event, Yamaha, etc. i'm just looking for some additional opinions on what might be good.
