Volume levels are not too much of a problem for me. I mix at conversation-level volume. And occasionally take the volume really low so I can hear what instruments are poking out of the mix too much.

The other monitors they have are some big Dynaudio mid-fields but they are the exact opposite of the NS-10s. A very smiley-face EQ sound – no midrange at all. Too much room acoustics interaction. And they are going to be sold soon, so I won't be able to rely on them for long. So I might as well as use the Yamaha's and get used to them, but I've only ever checked my mixes on NS-10s, never mixed through them. Any ideas?
