In the £500 price range they would appear to be the choice, but is it the 8030a by Genelec or the HR623 by Mackie.

Informed opinions most welcome

BM6A are fantastic. BM15A are for me, the best near-field monitor that you can buy. Evidently BM15A are outside your budget of 500 pounds but BM6A in its size also they are the best ones. You have to consider that the sound is something very personal. It is not possible to be measured.
Dynaudio sounds great, clean, with great diffusion of the image in stereo, bass deep, sweet and frightening. The middle are clear and do not tire. I recommend to you that listen the three monitors with a disc that you like and that approaches the sound which you want to do. Your ears will say to you as you prefer.
