Takes a while to get the hang of any new speaker, in a moment of  
madness I went and blew a lot of money on a pair of Genelec 1032s  
which are amazing, but my mixes still sucked for two years.   Just  
about cracked it now, well it's a lot better anyway.

ps. We had some 824s in the studio sat on top of the Genelecs at one  
point and it was difficult although not impossible to tell the  
difference but you don't get a lot more quality for an extra grand  
and a bit.
