Will try some of our home audio stuff instead then I think

This will have the advantages of
1) providing a familiar listening experience.
2) already being paid for.
Anything with a "woofer" measuring 6" or above will be an improvement over the Fostex pair.
My taste is for the Acoustic Research AR-18 with the Graham's Mod.
Or just bite the bullet, you could probably get them for £200 if you shop around.
Very versatile little things, and they sound surprisingly good, proper studio monitor design.

@thecolourbox - you know mate, you could do a lot worse than just use some headphones. I did this for ages too. As long as you remember that things sound a bit different through them, and you will need to use your Fostex's too, you will be fine. Plus, it's nice and unobtrusive for everyone else!
there is a lot to be said for a set of proper monitors, but for most of us hobbyists, if you are working to a budget, just use your headphones and whatever you have. Better to wait til you have the money for something half decent than buy something crappy in the short term.
When I did recording as mixing etc then headphones were fine but not for playing music

I'm thinking of going down a similar path ... multi fx direct in to active monitor speakers using amp / cab sim or whatever is required. I already have a pair of M-Audio AV40s. Will they sound okay-ish on a small bedroom setting?
