Speakers for gaming/music

Hi all. Got everything specced except speakers. New PC will be mainly used for gaming with music and web browsing as well. Unsure on what speakers to go for.

The Logitech g560 look nice but the lack of base control worries me and they don't sound great for music. Budget is upto 150 at the most.

Don't waste cash on a 2.1 setup for that budget, get a decent pair of active speakers, something like the PreSonus Eris E4.5 will be much better.

They do look very good, thanks for the input. They seem to be 150quid without Bluetooth or 50quid more for BT not sure its worth it for BT.

Ended up going for the Presonus 3.5 as they were only £83. Thanks all.

Speakers turned up today. First impressions are there very good for music. Playing a load of different songs and there great. Im no major audiophile but there impressive. I will be trying Crysis 3 later so ill report back what there like in that. They also look very nice on the desk.

Sounded pretty good in crysis 3. You can adjust them a bit at the back of the left speaker, gives you a bit more base. Overall very happy.
