And I must add, it's not only country music producers using these.
Yeah, but the issues that I found are:
1) they are discontinued
2) I do need something that I can monitor a bottom end with. The NS-10Ms are lacking in that frequency range.
3) The HS80s don't have as much wiring because they are active, have a larger woofer, and allegedly will cost less at the end of the day
4) The NS-10Ms will be GREAT if I was more involved in this recording and mixing stuff but what I do is amateur/young-pro level stuff ---- DEMOS and for that I don't have to have a perfect mix even though I would like to get as close to pro as I can

So... I will leave these to the pros... I posted an add on craigslist and hopefully he will buy them.
