I have a pair of the mackie HR 824s (similar to the 624s). I like these monitors a lot as my mixes translate a lot better than they did when I was mixing on a pair of NS-10ms. Though ultimately you need to know your acoustic space for proper mixing. One drawback (if you can call it that) is that the 824s are simply too much power for me, meaning I had to turn the amps down to a minimal setting just so I can monitor at a decent level. These puppies get very, very loud - which is not good when you live in an apartment complex. Also, they are not as flat frequencied as Mackie wants you to believe, but once you know them you can compensate in your mixes.
