I just bought a CM30 yesterday and I love it. I have a set of Alesis M1's in my recording studio and I love them also. For recording I think I prefer the M1's. But I'd never take them out on a gig. The CM30 really puts out a clear and ballsy sound. I would definitely recomend the Rolands for a louder, more in your face setup. I'm getting another one tomorrow so I'll have a stereo pair. I'll try them as recording monitors and let you know what I think.

Ciao,

Joe
