Budget monitor choice - Reveal 402 / Fostex pm0.4 / iLoud Micro

Hey all,
 
First of all I hope Santa's been good to you all. And if you speak to him, get him to send some snow to Scotland
 
Secondly, I'm looking for some opinions on budget monitors for my small room ( about 12ft x 9 Ft ).
 
I have limited space due to my budget triple monitor setup & stands, so I've narrowed it down to the Reveal 402's, pm0.4's, and the new iLoud Micro's ( which would push my budget out a bit )
 
I'm not going to be attempting any mastering as my room isn't treated. I'm just after decent sound quality that could make a mastering engineers' life a bit easier if it came to that.
 
My desk sits about 1ft from the wall, so the speakers will have about 2ft of clear air behind them to the back wall.
 
I am edging towards the Reveal 402's, mainly as there's more reviews out there for them, but was hoping for some opinions if I'd notice the difference over the Foster pm0.4's, which are slightly cheaper.
 
Or should I just go all out & grab the iLoud Micro's as the improvement in sound would be worth the extra cost?
 
Any advice would be appreciated.
 

The JBL's are just a bit too big for the space I have unfortunately.

boy, if i couldn't put anything larger than a pair of 5" jbl Lsr's in my space,
i'd forget about monitors,
and focus on some good high end headphones,
and find some where else to check final mixes on monitors..
monitoring on something that small (ilouds and the like) are not going to do you any mix favors.
 

when I was looking for monitors years ago, the reveals were on the list, and well I discounted them. can't really speak for them now though.
 
I do need some nearfields, but obviously NS10's are made any more.. I'd probably go with yamaha's or krk or genelec I guess.
 
don't be in a hurry to buy monitors ,  if you can wait , save up some more. it also depends on the music you make to what is a good choice. e.g. if it's bass heavy.
 
if you can go to a shop with a cd of something you know how it should sound.. then thats a good indicator.. there is at least 1 shop in glasgow that does pro-audio.. not sure about where you are though.
