So I will say I do not do any music production but I am considering getting some studio monitors for my office but just for gaming on my PC (mostly single player or playing coop F1 with the kids although I would most likely use headphones for that)

I am wondering if anyone uses has recommendations.
I was able to listen to some Adam T5 series at the local shop which I preferred over some other
options like Yamaha, Mackie, KRK and Dynaudio. I think I like the AMT tweeter perhaps for detail retrieval.

Is there a reason to perhaps move up the line to the A line or something like the Hedd Type 05 A-Core speakers. I don't mind paying up into that range but I can't go listen to any pre purchase.

I might have a dumb question but I have a pair of passive bookshelf speakers and Active. Can I connect one passive to my Marantz 60n amp through the speaker outputs and one active to the pre-out so I can play around with hearing the difference between them with the balance on the amp.
