I am on a very low budget approx £300 and I need monitors. What can anyone recommend? Active, or an Amp and monitors. Please help!

Add9 if you run the 1029 without the sub you're missing a lot of things. the monitors due to their size can't go down a lot and it's a problem for a lot of type of music. If you have the sub, then either the sub is not well placed/tuned or these genelecs don't suit for your ears.
