Hi,
 
I have been looked at budget range studio monitors and can currently get a pair of Behringer B1031A monitors for EUR250.00
Have any of you used these or advise something different at this price point?
 
Thanks!

I assume you mean the B1031A (without the 2).  My advice is to search first at Gearslutz.com. There are some posts there about these monitors.  Then post a question there if you still want more info. This forum is great for questions or issues specific to CW, but Gearslutz has a lot more discussion about various gear and recording in general.  

Good choice for the price. The only other product I know of that's comparable in price/performance is the Alesis M1 Active MkII.

Just bought a pair of JBL LSR305's from Sweetwater, so far I'm really liking them, great speakers for the price! Anyone else tried these?

Yup, Sorry fat finger syndrome....

I hate those Alesis ones, they're so muddy. But it's a pretty tiny budget for good monitors. Can't judge on the Behringer ones, the only ones I've heard were the 2032 Truths years ago. Thought those were pretty good for the money, but I'm not sure I trust the ears I had back then. If you have the option, go listen to a few sets in a shop and bring a cd you know well, as well as some of your own work.

In that price range I thought the Presonus Eris E5 were a good value; accurate, reasonably well defined upper-mids, and the high-end was clear.  They aren't going to deliver thunderous bass, but they would work well in a small space - you could always add a sub later.  The acoustic tuning capabilities are pretty impressive for monitors in this price range.   

If you already have some monitors that you are currently using, please consider this: Not exactly monitors, but ARC 2 from IK Multimedia will improve any monitor area as it works to correct problems with the room and the monitors (to a degree, of course.)  This may provide a more cost effective solution than purchasing some new monitors that may not be that much better. (If you are going to buy new ones, go at least semi high end, Take a look at the new Adam F7's for example)

I have a set of Mackie MR5 mark 1's.  I've been very pleased with them and got them at a steal, as the mark 2's had been introduced.

Between these, the Alesis, and the Behringers, my vote would be for the JBLs and it's not even close.  And if you could push the budget a tiny bit, then definitely the LSR308s.
