New speakers needed on a budget

Just got married, and new speakers are needed. We have a budget of $800 a pair. They need to be floorstanding. Jazz, classical, rock, and a few movies are our listening pleasures, but are never played loud. The room is all hardwoods, and is about 18 x 27. What would you suggest to get the best sound for the dollar (and I know this is not much money for the type of speakers discussed on Audiogon). We are considering the Swan's but haven't seen much feedback.
