JBL 305P MkII on sale at Sweetwater for $109 each. This is the updated version of the JBL LSR305 monitors which were highly thought of as budget monitors.

Yamaha HS5. My feeling on Yamaha HS series monitors is that if you can get your stuff to sound good on them, you're in good shape because they're a bit unforgiving so far as hiding your problems. I do find Yamahas to be a bit fatiguing when mixing for long stretches.

Mackie CR4BT. Some people like these but the reviews are mixed. They're probably a step up from what you have now but I'm not sure how much. They have bluetooth capability if that is an attractive bonus to you.

At $109 apiece this month, the JBLs are real bargains. I suspect you'll be amazed at the difference between those and what you're using now.

Thanks Jim.
