Default Near-field monitors

Anybody else heard the JBL LSR705P ? Amazing bass for a 5" driver -
don't feel any need for a sub. In fact too much bass (until I rolled off
the bottom a little) when used in a half-field scenario. Good for
near-field, or even medium-field, as they go quite loud too.

But the treble seems 'sweeter' (less tiring) with my LS3-5As, but a sub
is useful there as they roll off pretty much by 80Hz ....
