chingon,

Would you be willing to do some basic soldering and turn a screwdriver? Kits are a great way to get excellent speakers for not a lot of money.

For speakers that sound excellent but at a decent price, I would recommend products from Paradigm. I have a pair of Titans ($170) and a pair of Atoms ($125) in my home stereo set-up. I can confidently say that they would blow the pants off of any Bose speaker.
 
barefoot, solding and turning screws isnt a big deal. What kind of kits are available?

Tex,

Here is a list of excellent kits with accurate bass performance in various price ranges. All of these would make great monitors, and trounce your NS10s. And, unlike a lot of commercial monitors, I would say the overall performance and quality of the kits in this list directly track the cost. The only caveat is that some of these speakers are not magnetically shielded (get a damned flat panel! ;)).

The dual woofer Speaker City and North Creek kits will give the deepest most linear bass. If you want more bass than any of the kits in this list, then I strongly suggest you get a sub. Two-way speakers with large woofers (8" and bigger) sacrifice too much midrange performance in my opinion.

North Creek - Borealis, Rhythm http://www.northcreekmusic.com/NorthCreekKits.html
Speaker City - Scan Speak MTM-18, Scan Speak 7 http://www.speakercity.com/scanspeak_kits.shtml
Zayltron - Attitude, Aria 7, Aria 7 Access, Wonder, Wonder R.... probably some others. http://www.zalytron.com/premium.htm
