Modern monitor that images like Celestion SL600 ?

Over the weekend I pulled my pair of Celestion SL600s off the shelf and gave them a listen. They're still amazing speakers 25 years after they were introduced. You can just reach right into the music, the imaging is amazing.

What modern monitors out there image really well ?

Do any have the qualities of the SL600 without the faults ?

Since I started this thread I bought a pair of Paradigm Signture S4s. Truly wonderful speakers on my Music Reference RM-9, particularly for the price.

However they don't even begin to image like the Celestions. So the search goes on.

Best imaging (most three dimensional) speakers I have found are Digital Phase EP-SM1. They are not on the website, but check here for contact: http://www.digitalp.com

I keep meaning to write a review on these, they are really special. Apparently DP is a longtime speaker company but not widely advertised or known. They will do 30-day trials.
