Moderate to difficult depending on your ability to be creative, patient, practicle and precise. Are you on VSC?

To be honest with you, I'd just save that money.

Unless you are pretty well off and don't care much about the current economy. That explains the decrease in prices in our classified forums too.

Or you can wait for a few months (which prices will probably be even lower), then your purchasing power would be even more =)

those monitors look pretty good. but for the coin you could pick up a set of nice cheaper monitors and have a shop fab up some nice wood trim rings, probably would be a good bit under 500. then take the left over coin and pick up the neck pads.

Its a buyers market right now so if you have reserves-enjoy. Then again it makes no sense to drive a luxury car w/o $20 in your pocket.
