Welcome to the forum...
Given a limited budget, I am suggesting something different; a pair Reactor 900s. Yes, a pair of Reactors because a pair of Phantoms is much better than a single lonely one. To me, they are the value for money option.
I have compared a pair of Golds with a pair of Rector 900s. The Golds have a bit wider sound stage, a bit more detail with better mids and high end. It was my preference because I had a pair of Golds. BUT putting aside the comparison, and listening to the Reactor 900s by themselves, I could most definitely live with them, very clean and had details that a lot of systems cannot match. Excellent sound for such small boxes.
However, if you still want the Premier range, go for a single Gold rather than a single Classic. I prefer the Gold sound to the Classic. Most importantly, get the second one as quickly as possible...
