Heard them at a show and they were very impressive for their size really good bass overall really good sounding powered speakers.
The KEF LSX are better but if you're willing to spend that much you should be able to grab a pair of KEF LS50 wireless on clearance. They have been selling at $2000 CAD which should put you under your budget in USD no problem. The LS50 seem to be picky about amplification so the active version sorts that out for you for still fairly reasonable dollars.
