    What kind of compressor are you looking for? Something tht can do heavy duty character?

    Some of my non-free favorites:

    Red Phatt Pro --http://www.jeroenbreebaart.com/audio_vst_red_phatt_pro.htm ... this guy makes cheap but good stuff

    IK T-Racks 3 compressors:

    Fairchild emulation --

    Opto Compressor --http://www.ikmultimedia.com/trsingles/moreinfo/moreinfo4.php

    Voxengo:  http://www.voxengo.com/ -- lots of goodies for decent prices... e.g., Crunchessor, Marquis Compressor to name a couple...

    SKNote Q796 -- http://www.sknote.it/software.htm

    http://www.kjaerhusaudio.com/ makes some good stuff too, but there's been some recent questions as to the status of the company... http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3854533

    +10 om IK's compressors.

    Also Bootsy's Density mkII is amazing, sadly for you it's free so it's out of your preferred price range.

    Sadly very reduced studio equipment as it is... ASUS G750J, 8 gb RAM, Win8, Roland Quad Capture.

    +1 on Density MkII

    Blockfish is also good (and free)


    If you want to spend a little money, take a look at some of the UAD plugs. Now that they've been superseded by UAD-2, you can pick up the UAD-1 cards really cheap (off ebay, etc) and the basic 1176 emulation that comes with them is great. The UAD store always seem to have offers and vouchers available so you can add a few more nice plugins (LA-2A is good) at a fairly reasonable price.

    +1 on the Red Phatt Pro from
    http://www.jeroenbreebaart.com/
    buy the bundle and get Smash Pro (multiband comressor) as well.

    +1 on Voxengo plugs.

    most authors of novels regarded as classics are dead, classic novels are, therefore, most likely to be written by dead people.
