No. ;)

Actually no idea, I've never heard them, and that's exactly what you
should try to do: Listen to some speakers in your price range, if
possible. Samson also makes some nice cheap ones (Resolv) and never
forget, duh, Behringer. Personally I'm very fond of my Tapco S-8
monitors.

One thing to keep in mind with active speakers budgetwise is, that you
also need something to control their volume. Either use a small mixing
desk like the Samson MDR6 or the Soundcraft Compact4 (which is very
nice!) or one of the smaller "volume knob" thingies like the C-control
by (again, sorry) Samson.

Ciao
