The Monoprice monitors look like the M-Audio BX-5: http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=115&cp_id=11504&cs_id=1150401&p_id=605500&seq=1&format=2

Wouldn't be the first time Monoprice has rebadged another speaker design. Might be worth seeing if you can find some reviews/testimonials on them.

I think the Monoprice monitors were shipping for just a few days, but now they have gone to backorder status. I still haven't seen any reviews, but I think they shipped some because they showed available a few days ago. I think they are just starting to try to fill the pipeline with what is a new product (for Monoprice anyway), so hopefully we will see some reviews pretty soon.

You're right about the 3 inch model anyway, they are in stock right now and someone has already left a review.
