Ok guys got a dilemma and I need your help because I am still pretty new to DJing and professional audio equipment.
My cousin has a pair of Event SP8's that he purchased when he went to music production school. He is now a personal trainer and doesn't use them. They are very nice Studio Monitors that originally retailed around $1200 a piece when he purchased them about 3 or 4 years ago. Unfortunately they are now discontinued. Both speakers are still in perfect condition, I have heard them, seen them, touched them so I know he is not screwing me. He is willing to sell them to me, as a pair, for $300. I know it sounds ridiculous but we are family and I know he is serious.

or....
I could just buy a pair of the highly popular, tried and true, Rokit 6's for around the same price and have a little more customer support if something breaks or goes wrong. I hear they are a great deal for the sound quality and a lot of people stand by them.

My question(s):
Should I buy the SP8's or the RP6's?
Are the SP8's obsolete these days?
Is it a big deal if those speakers are discontinued?
If you have experience with the Event SP8's let me know what you thought.
