When I searched my top two were Dynaudio and ProAc. You should be able to find threads on this site with titles such as "best spseaker under 3k" or "best monitors" with good info and suggestions.
good luck!

Speaker suggestions??
Hello,
As a relatively new listener too high and audio, I am having trouble deciding on a good speaker for my listening preferences
My new-ish setup:
I prefer to keep things simple.. So a very basic system
Amps: Simaudio M-400 (pair) via XLR
DAC: Wyred 4 sound dac2DSD (no preamp)
Media server: Mac mini
Speakers: Focal 726 chorus
Im not totally happy with the SoCal speakers in the trouble trains I prefer a softer trouble but I still like a full sound but no harsh overdone treble.
I generally listen from pop/ dance/ electronic to jazz, rock pretty much a little bit of everything alright like detailed smooth sound and generally listen at a moderate to high level in a 15x 12 room w vaulted ceilings.
one friend who is close can't say enough about ProAc the 28.
I want to stay under 6k
I am only able to demo the ProAc and a few other brands so your help would be very valuable to me!
Im fine with used speakers too.
I bought my focals when I had my beginner system with surround sound Denon AVR
