Need a decent 2.0 or 2.1 set of PC speakers

[Sarduk]

Hi all,

I currently have some Creative 5.1 iTrigue speakers. They look nicer than what they sound.

I've always had 5.1 speakers, but I have realised that I have no use for 5.1 - I don't play lots of games, I don't watch a lot of movies but I do love music - loud music at that.

So, I am in the market for some amazing 2.0 or 2.1 (preferably 2.0) speakers.

They must deliver crystal clear sound and good bass. I would prefer 2.0 speakers, but if they perform substantially less than a set of 2.1 then I will be happy with 2.1.

Looking to spend no more than £100.00

Thanks

Are you referring to the on-site reviews? If so, I really don't want to pay attention to those

Cheers

Hi C64,

All pc speakers are rubbish for music really because they lack midrange they are just subwoofers and tweeters more or less.
get a budget amp and bookshelfs for music even the cheapest most basic setup like gale mini monitors are better than pc speakers.
You could get a cracking little setup for £100 off that auction site.
If you must get pc speakers then aego m.

How do you connect a PC (X-fi) to a amp? Through the optical thing?

And is it really worth getting a sub-standard amp and bookshelf speakers, both within the budget of £100?
