fwiw, i've also been looking to upgrade my monitors and have recently auditioned the concertinos as well as proac tablettes, jmlab profile, paradigm s1, rega rs1, various dynaudio, quad 11L/12L. to my ears, the concertinos, while by no means a bad speaker, were less appealing than all but the entry-level dynaudios--somewhat slow and boxy, without the precise imaging of some of the others. the concertinos are also an older design; i imagine speaker technolgy evolves quickly. the real surprise was the regas, which are also the cheapest--despite a disconcertingly lightweight cabinet and generic-looking drivers, they sound really good--detailed, big soundstage and nice integration of highs and lows. i'm still gonna try some others (psb, usher, etc.), but i was impressed.
of course, just my opinion on a rainy saturday--trust your own ears.
