Silver Member Username: Gavbo211JL Audio 10w3v2, IL US Post Number: 697 Registered: Jan-05 | Alright guys so it's christmas time and i've been looking at some new computer speakers for a while. My budget is around $150. and i live on ebay, so ebay is fine. some brands ive been looking at are: Creative Labs Logitec Klipsch Altec Lansing I'm assuming these are the really popular brands, because they are the ones i could find the most info on. Also, keep in mind that sound quality is important, but i want something with a subwoofer that will really shake my dorm room and get loud. Thanks in advance for any help. |

I'de go logitech..i have the logitech z560s and the sub shakes my room and other rooms. I love the midrange on the sats too... If you dont mind going used..you can try looking for a used set of logitech z560s(4.1) or z680s(5.1) locally for that price or lower. |
