i actually have a pair of the same ones hooked up to my internet/music library/ipod station/banking/miscellaneous old computer and got so used to listening to music on them that i got to know them pretty well.. that's what made me get a 2nd pair for the studio.. i got tired to taking mixes upstairs to check them on the crap speakers.. so now i just press a button and can tell pretty quickly if something is really out of whack. i also use old hi fi speakers that i've had for 15 years in another room... between those and earbuds i feel pretty safe.
Hey ignatius, are these the M-Audio speakers you were referring to?:

M-Audio Studiophile AV40 Portable Speakers from zZounds.com
