I don't have a specific suggestion for an under-$1000 monitor with wide midrange dispersion, but let me toss out some things to look for.
Dispersion pattern at any given frequency is largely a function of driver diameter. The smaller the driver diameter, the wider the dispersion. The logical solution would be a three-way with a dome or small cone midrange. I do sell such a monitor and it works well over a very wide area, but it's significantly above your price range.
If you must go with a two-way, obviously the smaller the woofer diameter and/or lower the crossover frequency, the better the midrange dispersion will be. You might look at the Amphion line, as I think they use unusually low crossover points in their two-ways.
Best wishes,
Duke
