I went out to some local dealers and tried out the Monitor Audio RS6's, the Dynaudio Audience 52's, the Focal JMLabs 716V,816V and some miserable B&W DM somethings.
I really need to find a dealer in Montreal who has the JMLabs and the Monitor Audios so I can do some testing between the two of them... I prefered the Focal's, but then again I heard the MAs in a diffrent showroom, 4 days prior to my audition of the 816Vs'.
Then there is price: I could pick up the MAs for about 1100, but the Focals are a full 800 more...
I have to retry the MAs because my first impression was that they were very "bassy", but I had miserable recordings that didn't showcase their midrange/high frequencies... 50 Cent "The Massacre" is definately not coming with me next time...
I also want to try Epos M22.2s? -- there is a HiFi show in Montreal next week, I'll go see what's up.
Have you tried Fillion Électronique ? They carry Focal and JMlab.
Also, when and where is that audio show you mentioned ? I went to some big-ass audio show 5 years ago at the Sheratton hotel (I think) and there was so much dream equipment ...
