Hi Guys,
 
I want to apologize if this isn't the ideal place to be asking such questions; however, I am thinking of purchasing some bookshelf speakers under $100.  I am only a college student with a small income haha, but I only really need to use these speakers for a small dorm setting.  
 
I was thinking about purchasing a pair of Polk R150s after listening to them at Frys the other day and seeing that they are on sale for only $60 as opposed to 129.99 on Amazon.
 
I was also thinking about buying the Micca MB42s prior to going to Frys and also the Pioneer BS22 or BS21s.
 
Do you guys have any suggestions to what I should get? Thank you!!
 
Best,

PS: I will most likely be powering it with a Lepai 2020+ amp from Amazon.

Pioneer BS22 are under $90 at the moment on Amazon. I think that they are better than Polks and the Miccas. And that price might not last.

Hi thank you for replying back!

I was thinking about those Pioneers, but actually another speaker caught my eye on eBay.

Are you familiar with Boston Acoustics? Specifically the CR75, CR55, or the CR65?

Best,
