Studio monitors?

Any recommendations for decent quality yet reasonably cheap monitors and best place to get them? In or around 100 quid would be nice, its just for my home recording.

At that price you're better off with headphones. Push it to €145 and you'll get Sennheiser HD25II, the budget version with the short cable and plastic ear cushions.

Id agree with the post above. For that price, you wont get a decent set of Studio Monitors, but I don't recommend mixing with headphones either, it never worked in my favour

Yes, it's not ideal, but it can be done.
