One of my clients makes a computer-based system and has to supply
speakers with it. Their customer expects the speakers to be worth
on the order of $100-$150 a pair, and the client had a devil of
a time finding speakers at OEM pricing for any more tha $20 the
pair!

Surely you told them they are looking in the wrong spot?
They should be checking out the cheaper near field monitors available from
the pro audio manufacturers.
