Stand mounted speakers

Dynaudio C1's.

Sorry as a C1 owner I think they are great. Should have mentioned Dynaudio special 25's if you like a more little forward sound (uses evidence drivers). Another good one is Sonus Faber Cremora Auditor M. Little more laid back than the C1's. Those are all the best monitors I've ever listened to. Personally I like monitors that are not forward but natural sounding without being too laid back.

PMC AML2's fully active monitors. No sub required. Outstanding sound and well worth a demo.
