I have 2 sets. A pair of Edirol MA 15D's and I just bought a pair of the Kali Audio LP-6's. If you're on a budget, I couldn't recommend the Kali's higher.
Youtube them. They're getting rave reviews.

If music is the food of love, play on and play loud!

My monitors were delivered yesterday.
After researching, I thought I’d take the plunge with a pair of Adam Audio A7X’s and an Adam Sub10 Mk2, to use at home with my Kronos 2-88. I only picked up the Kronos a few weeks ago and so far had only been playing it through my DT 990 headphones, so didn’t have particularly high expectations for monitors in comparison to the DT990’s. I needn’t have worried - wow!!! Piano is superb and all other electronic sounds are reproduced very impressively.
My room is quite small but purely used as my music studio. The Sub10 Mk2 is capable of delivering more than I need, so have it turned down a tad to create a natural and balanced sound - I’d rather have spare in reserve than be running at full to get the desired effect. The package works brilliantly together and I’m extremely pleased with my choice.
