Best small, desktop speakers, $500 or under (new or used)


What small, nearfield (3 feet) desktop speakers do you use or like?
I'm looking to fit out my desk with something good but not expensive.
Music tastes are varied and I don't care about deep bass. I'd rather have good mids, highs.
Spending is capped at $500 max. Open to used, new. Would power these with Adcom separates, 60wpc.
Elac? Ascend? KEF? What would you advise?

"Sony bluetooth? Sound good?"
They include DAC (USB input) and really more than good headphone amplifier. They do sound quite good for size and that is why I recommended them. I assume you want to have more than speakers on the desk. Some of the recommended ones must be better, but seem bulky. Of course, it depends on the size of your desk.
