I also bought cheepies, and am not happy with them. Actually damn tired of them. I got Alesis M1 active Mk2 second hand for $40. The value for money was there, but the low end was tubby as hell.
Personally, I've found Behringer a little less fatiguing than KRKs, though I've not heard the KRK model you are considering.
It's true that some people have found Behringer speakers to suit them. There was also a rumor (yes, just a rumor) that the design/manufacturing may have changed post law suit.
The truths are famously poor for build quality and EM shielding. I think many tweaters have died. Personally, I can generally accept part replacement for cheap kit. The EM issue, with picking up radio stations is probably a show stopper, if it happens to crop up. I'm wouldn't know if it had been addressed.
Perhaps some reasonable quality headphones and whatever hi-fi speakers you happen to have, may be OK in the interim. Also, patient research can still turn up some bargains in used markets.
