You could also check out some Dahlquist bookshelf speakers as well, not sure of the newer model numbers, mine are Qx-6's from a year and a half ago. They have several options you could go with and should be well within your budget. I...

Why yes I did. Really enjoying the sound too. Good luck with you TV, it's brutal when it goes on the fritz. Cheers, Steve
