I find that my old pair of Tannoy DMT II 12's give me a good foundation for what my mixes will sound like.
They are fairly cheap now-a-days...

One idea that helps some is to have a speaker switcher set up with your production monitors on one channel and an old marantz (my personal favorite, but any old stereo will do) console stereo on the other to hear reproduction sonics in contrast. If you have a third channel on the switcher box, get a 20 dollar pair of el cheap-o computer monitors...
Instant A/B/C real world translation.
