Decent speakers for my laptop

I have a small office in my house where I listen to music via inbuilt laptop speakers.

I'd like to get something better and at first I was looking at the simplest solution and getting some Audioengine A2+s to plug and play. I don't need a sub since my room is small and it's a semi house and don't want to annoy the neighbours.

I have done a little more reading and looks like I could get a Yamaha A-S301 and Diamond 9.1s for £280. This does bring me closer to the price of Audioengine A5+ but not sure which will sound better.

They will be sat on my desk next to a monitor and connected to a Lenovo laptop.

Thanks I'll take a look. Noticed the JBL LSR305 are £128 on the rainforest.

Thanks Marsman. I've almost decided on Kanto YU2. They are £150 and have USB/DAC. They compare well to the A2+ and come in cheaper.

I'll take a look at those thanks.

Kanto are now stocked by the Rainforest.

Going to get the Kanto YU2, they also have a USB/DAC.

Just waiting for the matte white to come back in stock.
