Any good recomendation on monitors in the $1-2k price range

Sure but, what do you have available to you locally or are you going the
a'gon route?
Revel M20, Linn Katan, Polk Lsi-9 are a few examples that fit in your
dollar range.
The B&W 602's while a floor stander and nice sounding are only $750.
They're also the only B&W in your price range or even twice that amount
I've heard that doesn't sound disjointed. If you really like the B&W
805's then listen to the M20's before lunking down your cash. The M20's
are a much better sounding speaker even though the cost is the same.
A-gon has a used Sycamore covered M20 set for around $1200.
Best,
John

Depends on what you mean by monitors.

Do you mean some kind of 12" 3 way that one might find in a recording
studio, or simply a good pair of speakers for listening to 2 channel
stereo?

NHT, PSB, B&W, and several other companies make excellent speakers for
the latter application.

Being of a DIY bent, I would pick the D'Appolito designed kit available
at www.madisound.com the Thor. It's an MTM with excellent frequency
response that will go to 30 Hz in a typical room.

Absolutely: Spendor 3/5se's or Spendor SP2/3s (perhaps used). You'll never look back.
