And it will potentially alienate anyone with reasonably normal hearing who will find your 'lovely and sparkly' top end excruciating!

I'm 67 and listened to a moderate amount of loud music over the years, my hearing is pretty shot over about 12kHz, it is likely that your hearing is deteriorating at the top end (it does so simply due to the effects of getting older regardless of the loud music/noises we all encounter in day to day life). Prolonged exposure to loud music will accelerate the decline and chasing more top end to compensate will just make it happen sooner.

They've greatly refined the design over the years and, at one time, they were the most popular monitor in UK studios. They also sell PA versions - I know someone who uses the older Wildcat range and they sound great.
