NFT: Anyone know of some affordable decent computer speakers?
 

Been searching around and dont really know what's best for the buck. Maybe in the 50 dollar range, give or take. Ideas?

Craigslist always has computer peripherals (sp?) for cheap.

Didnt think of that one, will check it out. Others?

$60.99 + Shipping (5.1 Altec Lansing)

$55.99 + Shipping (5.1 Creative Labs)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16836116012

Any certain brands that have bad reps? Altec and Creative labs are all over the place.

Not bad?

Those are a good deal.... jump on it.

Either of those will do nicely. I have these:

Also available in 5.1 (I don't have a 5-channel card so I got the 2.1):

Those 2.1s are all over ebay for about the same price. I have NO idea if I can handle the 5.1 so I'm betting I should not go with them.

I have my PC hooked up to a bookshelf stereo system.

I'm betting you're just using motherboard sound, and don't have 5 channels.

Personally I have no use for 5 channels anyway. 2.1 is fine for me. I use my headphones quite a bit anyway.

Do you have a soundcard or built in sound? The majority of soundcards are 2.1 tho so if you have not put money out on a soundcard then you should stick to the ones on ebay to be on the safe side.

Either way..... Logitech makes good stuff.

Thanks alot for your help guys. I'm watching those 2.1's on ebay...could buy 'em now for a good price but will wait a day or two.

I got these for $49 at Circuit City on Saturday. They sound excellent!
