The Top Speaker for less than $500

Looking to get a new pair of speakers. The budget is not amazing but I think there is some good speakers for this prizes.
My top selects are:
AXIOM M3 V3
APERION INtimus 5B
PSB B6 or B5
PARADIGM Mini Monitor or Atom
MONITOR AUDIO BRONZE BX1

Hope you guys can advice me on what to buy and if someone know second hand or good places to get them it will be perfect.

Thanks

You might be able to pick up a pair of newly factory refurbished and upgraded OHM Ls for close to that at www.ohmspeakers.com

Or a used pair of OHM Walsh 2s, or 3s and maybe even 4s have a lot of bigger speaker sound to offer and might be had for that amount either here on occasion or regularly on ebay.

You can put my vote down for the PSBs. Great speakers for the money. Also consider NHT Classic 3. They are going for considerable discounts these days, and sound very good.

Behringer B1031A Truth Monitor. A pair of powered 8" monitors for $400. Well designed, well balanced, smooth on and off axis response.

Behringer B2031A 7" active monitors, even better accuracy than the B1031.

And if you don't want active, the B2031P is the passive version.

Pioneer also has some well thought out monitors, using waveguide loaded domes.
