Could be a bit of both, there are a lot of factors that can play into that,
speakers, sound choices, even the room can make things boom if there are
standing wave resonance points. I have heard several of the alesis monitors,
and I do feel that the events are engineered a bit flatter in their response,
but it's so situational, it's hard to compare. My best advice would be try and
find a store that will let you try something at home for a few days, and see if
it's better for you. Many retail places are starting to do that, it's really
the only way to make sure of what you're getting.
Hope this helps.

I've been using Alesis Monitor 1 MKii amplified monitors and they seem to
work well enough. Do you guys think the Events are better? I sometimes notice
my mixes turning out a little bass heavy when I listen to them on regular
stereo equipment after mixing on the Alesis monitors. I don't do any added EQ,
but my sound is bassy and I have to roll off the bass on my stereo. It could be
that my sounds are just that way out of the keyboards, though.

I vote for events also. I'm using the ev5's which truly are near field.
Some monitors are advertised as nearfield but they are really too big for that
in my oppinion.

I really like the event stuff, very flat response, and uncolored. They
blew away the genelex, in my humble opinion. There are several models, the
20/20's are great, but for around $100 new, maybe $700 used, the sp8's are
great. They're biamped, so you have complete separation, and the crossover is
great. They don't get real boomy, which I like, but the low end is incredibly
tight.
Hope this helps.

Hey guys my little dinky stereo speakers are not cutting it when it comes
to my sound quality. Gee, that's surpising. Anyway I amlooking to spend four
hundred ish on moniters that have their own indepedant power supply. I have a
m audio moble pre sound card. Any suggestions would be welcome.
