I heard that the Monitor B2 are amazing in that price range..
Dont know why you dont like them. What is the reason.. Could I know ?
I found the B2s to be very colored on the highs, with really weak mids. Liked their bass but that's because I'm a basshead, some people might consider them a little on the boomy side.
Ipodpune, from your list I'd go with something from Acoustic Energy.
Im really surprised by that Edster. I compared, and not in the same room at the same time, many different brands. I even heard the Ascend 170's at a friends house. I thought the MA silvers and the bronze's were, for the price range, some of the best I heard. I guess different ears and different rooms comes into play. I would love to hear the Ascends again, anyone in Boston giving a demo???
LOL yes it can be a slippery slope. That's why I advise people to use reviews and forums as a way to narrow down their list so that in the end they are choosing between only say 2-3 things instead of 10-15.
