You can for sure get a pair of professionally-decent audio monitors for $300-$500 US. They won't be great and I wouldn't use them to finish audio for Netflix or whatever, but for most corporate work, YouTube, and lots of other stuff, there are a bunch of good options. Here's a slight edit of a post

I really like my Kali Audio monitors. Very good value across their lines. For $900, you can get a new pair of IN-5, or for $1000, a pair of IN-8s, which are great three way speakers. You might try those and if you find the bass lacking, add a sub. Or for $600, you could do their LP-8.

Yeah, should also mention the monitor speakers are actually pretty decent too. I use my Mac for some music stuff, so when I want more oomph I turn on my studio monitors (kali audio lp8-v2 connected via a Scarlett 2i2 interface). But for everyday YouTube use, the monitor speakers get the job done.

i think recommending speakers is really tough, because everybody has way different wants and needs. For me personally....I use my mac as an audio interface for my bass guitar. So, I have a scarlett 2i2 audio interface attached to my Mac. I have a pair of Kali Audio LP8-V2 studio monitors attached to

Kali Audio LP6 or LP8 V2 will probably give you the most sound quality at this budget.

That’s bit small budget if you want to fill out your whole room. Usually that budget active studio monitors are intended for desktop usage (i.e. about arm’s length away). Like e.g. Kali Audio LP-UNF (EAC review) (Thomann listing). JBL or Adam active studio monitors could be slightly bigger in your b

I've been using the Kali Audio LP-8 V2 for a while now and am quite content - nice price/performance ratio. Not as loud but a bit cleaner sounding than the KRK's i used. I think the best tip i can give is that once you get to understand your monitors and your room it really doesn't matter that much
