I have a pair of these: http://www.decks.co.uk/products/krk/rp6_g2

I love them, really nice rounded sound and very loud and punchy. Pretty sure my neighbours hate them tho

A pair of KRK Rokit 6's and a set of B&W's running through a Dennon amp.

I have Behringer B2031As for my DJ setup. Loud, fairly clear and pleasing sound.

I have KRK RP-8s and an RP-10 sub on my studio setup. Harsher and less pleasing but better for the studio...Picks out more flaws in the music.

I wouldn't want to mix on the KRKs though, they're not very pleasing to the ear.

Well, seeing as I have a regular hifi system, the KRK RP-8s/10 and the B2031As in the same room, I can tell you that the KRKs are alot more irritating to listen to music on than either of the other systems.

If I feel annoying everyone in the house, I will hook up my 2 JBL 15" Eon 2 and blast them loud enought to hear it upstairs.

Only Personal opinion mate. Used to have my standard hifi hooke up to my mixer but didn't find it punchy enough.

Good stuff mate. :) Mine sound spot on, love them.

Regarding the KRK's... Dain-Ja is right. They're designed to help you be critical of music, they will never stand up to a DECENT hi-fi setup for listening pleasure.

Yeah, I have a set of B&Ws on my hi-fi system too, with a Harman Kardon amp. I like their sound for classical music but I don't find that EDM sounds very good on them.

Strangely, the Behringers seem to make hardcore sound the best out of any of the speakers in my house (which range from 80$-8000$).

Intresting, i thought the krks would sound really nice especially 8" ones? I was looking to buy them for my dj set up. Got me thinking now tho, ive read on other forums there good for djing, have a really good sound? Anyone else use them?
