I would recommend that you look into one of the many metal ILF risers. Limb options are unlimited and they are very tunable and you could probably get more bang for your buck vs some of the other bows mentioned.
I just took my first foray into the metal riser recurve arena. I got a 15" sky archery Riser and put a set of windstorm carbon limbs on it. I got it all tuned up and its as quiet as any of my other bows now. It is much heavier but its absolutely dead in the hand at the shot. I even put a stabilizer on. I was really fighting the stabilizer because I have made fun of my compound shooting friends for years about them. It really quieted the bow and balances it out. I hate to say it but its one of the better shooting bows that I have, definitely the most forgiving.
You can get into a setup like mine for under $500 and some of the tradtch combos even cheaper.
