I recently spent a few weeks vetting through many many reddit threads and customer reviews in the same price range as yourself and these passed all the ticks and boxes. Most reference monitors in this price range had glaring issues that people would reference in the low rated reviews (turning off randomly, blowing out easily etc) and these seemed like the least likely to be problematic in any way. I've had them for 2 weeks and i'm completely satisfied. https://www.amazon.com/Monoprice-Powered-Multimedia-Monitor-Speakers/dp/B00DIGC5NS
