I too had the same problem.
Floor standers were way to big in my 11" X 13" room.
Went to a pair of monitors with stands.
Less bass was the trade off,no more standing bass waves.
I have tube traps and acoustic panels that i'm also using to dial in the room.
Small rooms are not the best but can be made to sound good with a little time and patience.
In your price range the selection is huge.
Try to audition the speakers in you're room with you're equipment and with you're choice of music.
Just my $.02 Rick.
