Help me pick a new desktop speaker


Hello!   For the new year I want to replace the Edifier speakers on my desktop.    The problem is there are many many to pick from.    I am leaning towards the Fosi amp but very unsure of speakers in this price range.    I am a picky audiofool and dont want to thru a merry go round.   I am looking for something under 20lbs each.  and under $500.    Im leaning toward Dali or Elac.    What is your experience and which would you pick?     Many thanks for your opinion.....

My wife is a musician and sings in a Master Chorus. She needed (OK, wanted) a pair of desktop speakers for her work desk, which she also uses to listen and occasionally record sample tracks. I ended up getting her a pair of JBL 305P MkIIs monitors. Powered, CD horns (not al all honky) and designed for nearfield listening. Now that they are a little broken in at about 200 hours I can say that they sound great. Cost was under $300
