Hi Fi speakers are designed to make the music sound good.  Nothing wrong 
with that, and if you know the sound you are supposed to get you could 
have good results from this.

The reason I have a set of nearfield studio monitors in my room, and not 
a set of High-end HiFi speakers, is that using monitors is like looking 
though magnifying glasses.  You gear EVERYTHING...  It is not always 
pretty either.  The other day I heard some background noise on some 
music I listened to, and it sounded like someone doing the dishes in an 
adjacent room... never heard it before, and it was very soft, so I am 
not sore the original engineer heard it either.  (Cant remember which 
track though - I'll see if I can find it again)

What I am trying to say is this.  Yes, you can drive in the 
Richtersveldt with a normal car, but if it starts raining, you will get 
stuck.  (Richterveld is an extremely dry rocky desert in the north-west 
of South Africa)  There are very little plant growth, and it is easy to 
drive there, but if it should rain the dry terrain turns into a slippery 
clay into which even 4x4 vehicles sometimes succumb.

I would rather pay less for something that sound right to start off with.
Nothing wrong with the HS50's but to get the correct sound you also need 
to buy the matching sub woofer, and this became to pricey (and much too 
expensive to take back to South-Africa - baggage wise)

Another pit-fall I saw recently.  You could have such monitors set-up 
incorrectly and this will negatively influence your mix.


Hope it clears things up a bit.
