Chiwalker Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I need some suggestions for speakers for my comp. Currently I use Bose QC2 headphones, but after a while I'd rather not have them sitting around my head a.k.a. I want speakers. Anyone know a good brand / pair that I should get? I'm looking for just the basic right,left,sub for <= $30 If you know of some great bargain for crazy surround gizmo boom bash speakers that is more than $30, then I'll take a look. Currently, I'm just thinking about going to Office Depot to get a cheap pair, but I thought I should ask here first since everyone is so sound/music savvy. Thanks!

phill Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I'm a fan of logitech speaker systems, the three different sets I have had have all been great. The S-220 is within your $30 range and has a lot of good reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiwalker Posted July 6, 2008 Author Share Posted July 6, 2008 hmm I woulda thought more people wanted to share the amazingness of their high-tech speakers...no one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unsung Plumber Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Well, its kinda hard to when your price range is $30. But I agree about logitech, they have some nice cheap speakers. these are the ones I have for my computer, very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalcyonSpirit Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 If you're willing to shell out a little more money, I'd suggest something from Bose. I have these. They're $70 online usually, but if you can find a BJ's or Costco or someplace like that, you might be able to find them for $50-$60 instead. What's great about them (and the other kinds in this line) is that they don't need a separate sub; the speakers handle that just fine on their own, so no need to waste space with a big sub unless you really want huge lows. Anyway, great sound on all the ranges, I think, and at a good price. But if you are really wanting to stay in your range, I'll have to agree with the others; Logitech has some good ones, though most are a bit more than $30. You'll have to shop around to find ones you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiwalker Posted July 13, 2008 Author Share Posted July 13, 2008 wow...now I feel like an ass for suggesting them... NAWW! They got great reviews...it's not the speakers, just a mistake - I'll give a more accurate review when I get ones that do work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiwalker Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 Phill - Thank you so much for recommending these! I got a functional pair today - I don't see how these $20 speakers give $100 quality. The subwoofer feels to good to my ears and whole body!
