If you need a kit have you tried www.theloudspeakerkit.com.au?
Are you happy to build the enclosures and make the crossovers etc or do you want it in kit form?

If you are happy to make them yourself here are a couple of designs in your pricerange:

I wouldn't post my question on a forum called "diyaudio" if I'm not happy to DIY

thanks for the sites

Hi Jarthel
If you don't mind spending a little more you could take a look at the JV-800 kit from Jaycar Electronics.
Catalog number CS-0800, $1200 / pair.
Cheers

can't find it on their website.

can you tell me what brand of speakers are used? how about the cabinet? mdf? real wood (not sure of the correct term) like oak or some other hardwood?

thank you.

Hi
Apparently it's still under development and will be released to coincide with a series of articles to be published in Silicon Chip magazine. If you have their current (2006) catalog, it's on page 249.
If not, rather than quote chapter & verse from the catalog, email me and I'll send you a scan.
Cheers
Rob

To whet your appetite.
Just for the record, I have no affiliation with either Jaycar or Silicon Chip magazine.
Cheers
