Inexpensive $200/pair Active Monitors


I am looking for inexpensive, less than $200 a pair, active monitors for my PC to listen to music in my office. These are not for critical listening but should sound good. I prefer to stay away from 3-piece combos as I find the bass to be one note boomy in this price range.

Through numerous searches I have found references to Audioengine a2, Swan M200 MKII, Alesis M1Active 520, M-Audio Studiophile AV 40 and iKey Audio M505 in this price range.

Any recommedations from this list or any others worth a listen?

Thanks,
Martin

I picked up a pair of Audioengine A2's a few months ago. No complaints. Far more musical than what I was expecting. Volume pot on the back is a bit annoying, but only a minor inconvenience relative to their great value.
