I have the same M-Audio monitors...you need to tweak them. Each of mine sit on 3- 2" maple blocks from mapleshade and have 1 small pointed mapleshade brass weight on top of them...it is a disgusting set-up now, a huge 3-d soundstage on my desk w/insane bass & imaging. I also have the m-audio 2496 card and decent IC's going into the monitors. Last, get a $40 furu f1-15 wall outlet, and a nice power cord...these 2 things are crucial for good sound in a tower pc in my experience. cooling down your processing chips with nice silver grease helps, and i stuck in a silent fan from www.endpcnoise.com, plus added a killer ide cord for my cd drive from www.granitedigital.com....made a huge and fundamental change for the better. my 2 cents.
