    I own a pair of Yamaha HS80m and agree with Johny they get tiring after a one or two hours of listening (to loud volume). They generate quite a lot of pressure for the volume they produce, but are actually quite nice if you use them civilized levels :-)

    If you want a pair of real monitors, I mean if you want to hear what you actually mix. I would recommend a pair of Yamaha's over Adam (too expensive) or KRK (I personally didn't like them, to boomy).

    Thanks for all your advice guys!

    Have to wait a few days for my salary to come in and then... I will order some F5's from Adam, can't wait :P.

    Made this choice because the Yamaha's become tiring ''fast'' (which is what I absolutly don't want!) and my room is to small for 7''.

    Will keep you updated on how they perform!

    Let me know how you like the F5's! :-)
    Did you listen them and compared them with the F7 and/or A5X ?

    I previously owned a pair of KRK RP 6's G2, looking for an upgrade now and I'm wondering if the bass
    response on the F5 will be lacking or not... Didn't have a chance to listen to them yet.

    I have the Adam F7's as monitors with my dj set. The sound is really good and never found them tiring at all.

    Only drawback is that I find them to be very sensitive to the position you are in when listening. So while dj'ing (as at least I tend to move around the desks from left to right quite a lot) you don't benefit from the higher quality these speakers can offer.

    My F7 replaced M-Audio monitors and I never encountered this sensitivity that much.
