I do jazz and big band mostly mastering stuff, not tracking.
Vinyl restoration etc.
Using miserable krks now.

So where would you go?

I've been listening but after a while.....well you know.....

So who is using what?

Good Jazz monitors, decent accurate low end but no hype.....
I need a good low end..so I am maybe looking at midfield.

Opinions(like assholes, we all have one) solicited!!!!

My Dynaudio BM6s are passive, but I don't think there's a significant
difference in bass extension between them and the active version. While they
deliver a lot of bass for the size, I don't believe that they would suit
your needs without a subwoofer.

I love the BM6a's but agree. They are not big monitors, but they are, to
me at least, great monitors and sonically a touch better than all the
others mentioned. The midrange is perfect and my mixes transfer fine
(and I have had 3 different rooms since using BM6a)

I just have a big old pair of KEF's for oomph and feeling the low end.

See how good they are, one would rather keep changing rooms than one's BM6s
)

I agree, they are serious speakers. I like them at least as much as the BM15
I had a couple of years ago. Not to mention the NS10's they replaced. After
12 years.
