Sorry I missed your post....I've got a set of Monitor 50's in my living room on my secondary 5.1 system (I've got a system upstairs and downstairs). For what I paid for the set quite some time back ($350), I've been extremely pleased with them. I like the dual midrange setup...and I get towers as I don't like the look of bookshelves on stands and I don't have shelves to place them on. My basement setup has a pair of older Polk Rti800's that are quite similar to the monitor 50's...they are just bigger (6.5 versus 5.25). Sound is nicer on my Rti's, but they were also over 2x the price of the Monitor 50's.

The only thing which is "future proof" is DEATH. Did I mention, I absolutely hate the use of the term "future proof".
