They look nice with the wood effect finish and all but it doesn't look like many people here have taken a punt on them.
So maybe a rethink is in order?
What does seem to be very popular at the moment are genuine active (as opposed to powered) monitors made by the pro and semi pro manufacturers. JBL LSR, Mackie MR and Yamaha HS ranges are very popular worldwide. ADAM and EVE make slightly more expensive but better specified models. These last two appear disproportionally expensive in the USA but a company called Emotiva makes cheap copies which get good reviews (not heard them myself). Some people also like models from KRK and even M-Audio or Monoprice.
Sorry not to be able to offer advice on your preferred brand but the above really do seem to be a best bet for quality and value. A proper dealer network is worthwhile too just in case you do have issues.
