different people have different gear and will have there work flow responding differently depending on the gear, the room they use it in.
I work with adam and have no problem getting good mixes out, Some friends work with Dynaudio and they achieve the same success rate, another one with NS10s.
I have visited them while at work and I was sure there mixes were wrong during mixing sessions. It turned out to be god as gold. So....
Our ears get tuned and shaped by the music we listen the feel we like and there are monitors out there for each one of us that might not suit the neighbor.
As for top engineers, they often travel with there nearfields if they don't know or like what they are going to find in the studio. And at home there have there comfort boxes, the one they like and feel confortable working with.
Looking fr a new pair of monitors has nothing to do with one's ability to produce a good mix but rather doing it with comfort and speed.
My 2 cents
