If you go used
Proac tablets
Proac response 1sc great if you can find a set most people keep them
sonus Faber has a bunch of nice small speakers that can be had under a grand now consertino domus comes to mind
ls 3/5 as people mentions but they need more power then most small speakers
Monitor audio and Dynaudio have some wonderful speakers under a grand too
That's a start so many moreĀ
