    Sony, Philis, Magnavox, creative.

    All are good but some have different specifications. when you show just compare voltage and AMPS etc.

    There are some great USB jobbies on Ebay from China. All good prices.

    Forget about buying computer speakers. Get a decent audio card, and run your signal out to some real hifi components.

    I've got an M-Audio Delta-66 PCI card, they're insanely cheap these days and worth every cent:

    True, but you can get some pretty decent computer speakers on the cheap.

    The Delta 66 is USD 239.95 MSRP. I paid over $1000 AUD for the same card in 2001! :eek:

    You may as well buy something good once, instead of buying an endless stream of the latest Logitech and Altec Lansing junk. Top end audio stuff from the mid/late 90s is practically being thrown out on eBay these days.

    Sony is the best. Creative is also good and affordable. Bose is costly i think..

    lol that is not true at all. Technology has come a long way since 10 years ago and it has become a lot more affordable to get something decent. The Logitech speakers I used to own were more powerful then most standard hi fi systems and the clarity was good. When you get the neighbors in the apartment downstairs complaining that the music is too loud, the system can't be too bad. :p
