You'll be wanting to use that 10 dB of attenuation.

How are these Mackies on violins? I read somewhere that the Dynaudio had smoother highs.

One thing they do we is massed strings--which is something, in my experience, a lot of speakers struggle with. A whole violin section playing in unison can sound really harsh on some speakers.
I'm not sure they're the last word in smoothness or magic, but they do a lot of things right and not much wrong. They're especially good at sorting out complex recordings and making sense of ambience. I've got a couple of distantly-miked piano recordings that never quite made sense to me, acoustically, before I got these speakers; with the Mackies, everything fell into place.
A very good value (by high-end audio terms at least). Nice speakers.
Thank you. I am considering these for a multi channel audio kit.
