whoa, bad call. don't buy anything from Behringer, that is total crap. buy anything else. buy Alesis monitor ones, those work great for mixing if you're broke, I know lots of producers that make incredible mixes with those. Do you want flat monitors for mixing? or colorful ones for crankage? they are kinda 2 different beasts, most studios have at least 2 sets of speakers for this reason, even home studios. (sometimes more than 2 sets, alot more, some studios have entire walls filled with speakers nowadays)
I don't think there is ONE set of speakers that can do both mixing and cranking, so you need to decide which you
want. I just got some vintage PIONEER 3 ways, from a thrift store for 30 bucks that CRANK (but I wouldn't mix on them)
