Good speakers for a low budget

Hi, I am helping a friend find speakers for around $600. Aesthetics are a high priority. Thank you.

Just picked up a pair and am very impressed with them. Excellent pricing (almost 50% off) for certain speaker finishes. Regards, Rich

As far as specifics go, the speaker should be musical (she likes to dance), not too bright, and they should sound relatively good outside their sweet spot (she likes to listen to music while cleaning). Thank you for your suggestions.
