BJD3 Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Like the vast majority of people on here, I really enjoy listening to music. Normally, when I am listening to music on my computer, I just use headphones, but that can be somewhat inconvenient, especially when trying to let someone listen with me. Anyway, I'm looking for a 2.1 computer speaker set. I'm mainly using it to listen to music, though they will see the FPS every once in a blue moon. I don't want anything extremely extravagant (i.e. building my own system using home theater subs, etc); I want a system in a box that I can unpack and hook up. My price range is relatively flexible, but I'm looking for something that is $100-120, though if it is cheaper, that is definitely a good thing. I'm mainly going to be listening to rap/hip hop/R&B, though playing various sub-genres of rock, techno, and another genre that is a mix between folk and blues won't be uncommon. Basically, lows are my main consideration, but not at the expense of mids and highs. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Quote Anti Peel and Seal...lol You may be offended by the above. Don't take it personally, I'm just abrasive. 2002 Buick Park Avenue DC Level 4 M2 12 D2 Car Audio Bargain 1600.1 Eclipse CD3200 ~2 cubes @ 34 hz.

thephanatik Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Logitech Z-2300: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00...P2/ref=dp_olp_2 My friend has these, along with a set of Logitech Z-5500 (~$400). The bass is much cleaner and much louder on the Z-2300. Does start to get distorted at ~90% volume though (most I've heard in this price range do).

The bass is much cleaner and much louder on the Z-2300. Does start to get distorted at ~90% volume though (most I've heard in this price range do). Those are actually what I was looking at. Couldn't find anything that I thought was better than that without jumping up into the $150-$300 range. Just wanted a second opinion before I pulled the trigger. Now I need to decide whether I want this or Rock Band more. I'm still open to other suggestions. (Though I doubt anyone is actually watching this thread.)

Because I can't find anything about it on Logitech's site. And the only thing I'm coming up with related to avi and speakers is this: http://www.avihifi.com/index.html And that's just a little out of my price range.
