Good Monitors for no more than 150?

There might still be a pair of Celestion 7s on Audiogon for $150. I believe they have an 8'' woofer and might be a little too big. However, I really liked my Celestion 3s and 5s. I don't know if the 7s are as tuneful in the bass. I'd risk it for $150.

KEF's Q-series. I still miss my old Q15s. Midrange and soundstaging magic.

wow thanks for all the responses, my buddy has some phase techs and they sound wonderful for such small speakers. I will look into those for sure. Does anyone have any info or experience with the dayton br 1? They are do it yourselfers.

I have an additional Q to this post. I'm curious if Wharfedale and Triangle can consider as "good" for bookshelf at this price range?

Maybe a used pair of Paradigm Atoms? Any version will do. For new speakers in that price range, some Polk monitors give decent bang for the buck, IMHO.
