came back. I've had JBL powered monitors that were ok. Just be aware that most powered monitors sold are targeting the home recording folks who tend to use them as near-field monitors.
Frankly, I went back to good 'ol UREI/Altec monitors run with either tube or SS gear. I tend to run things in mid/far field and like it better that way.
Those are the things you'll need to consider in your purchases. As to the volume control issues, I used a Presonus FireStudio audio interface and it supports a wired remote management device that sits on my desk where I do the work. The balanced XLR outputs directly drive my power amps.
Cheers,
David
