Its really critical to know what you'll be using these monitors for. I actually used a pair of Yamaha MSP5's in my bedroom for a year (I now use HR624's in my m8's studio).
The MSP5's have a very clear/crisp presentation for the money. BUT they lack lowend. I use them for fuking around on my synth.....you could just about work with them...but it would be an effort to get it right.......personally I wouldnt want to.
IMHO u are stuck in the void. With the kinda money you want to spend....you'll have to make a compromise between clarity and lack of bass end or vice versa. When you move upto the monitors like 624's you get good bass presentation and mid/high clarity.....but thats what you pay for!
As an alternative to the bass light Yamaha MSP5's.....you could consider the Alesis Spirit MKII's. They pack more bass weight, whilst retanining relatively decent mid/high clarity.
