Default How consistent are studio monitors of the same make and model?

The reason I used to hear for having a pair of NS-10s to hand was that
you make the best mix you can on your normal full range monitors, check
it on cheap headphones and a car system, and then listen on the NS-10s
while looking at it and watching how the cone distorts physically on the
bass notes.

If it still sounds good and the bass driver cone doesn't distort too
badly on the NS-10, then the mix is okay for any sensible listening system.

They were the archetypal cheap and nasty speaker.
