My Creative Speaker just die on me, I guess its too old thats why. So I need a new speaker system for my computer, but I don't know which one is good. I love listening to music, so I can't live without it lolz Any idea which one is right for me? Not too pricey plz ^^

Can we narrow it down a little?

How many speakers? 2, 2.1, or 5.1?

How much power do you want? Do you want to be able to rumble the whole house?

Whats your budget? $50 $100 $150+?

2.1 would be enough, no need to be able to rumble the whole house since I'm only using this in my small room

My budget would be around $50 - $70 , don't want to waste too much on a little speaker.

I think i bought my old one, which was the Creative Inspire T3000 for $50 the stupid thing dies.

Thanks for you help.

My dad has the logitech x230 in the living room on his computer http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-2-Piece-Spe...p;s=electronics I don't think its too bad but compared to the set you had, it might not be as powerful (looking at wattage).

The Z-2300 set

Is out of your price range but I have always wanted these. I like the bass from them but it is a tad large. The sub is approximate a one foot cube Its a bit expensive now, sometimes you can get it with a $50 rebate with $20ish shipping for about $70 total.

But hang around to get the input of others since I haven't replaced my speakers for a long while. I have had my Cambridge Soundworks (creative owns that company now) set for about 8 years.

I have the speakers that awdark mentioned in the first link. They are good, I've had them for a couple of months and it's really good for a small room. Although I wish I spent $60 on the same type with more speakers at Sams Club. -.-"

hmm have u considered headphones? anyway 2.1, i guess get a pair of altec lansing, they aren't bad. if ur budget permits try altec lansing MX5021, very nice sound.

thanks alot for your help guys

The Logitech X-230 looks good, but should I pay a little more to get the Logitech X-530 ?? ^^

My brother has a 4.1 set and I don't like it very much because he just has a small pile of speakers on his desk and I think its just a big waste of space. Can you hear the difference like that? Nope because they are all coming from right there. If you were to wire them properly with the back speakers behind you and all the effect is wonderful but who would put speakers behind your chair?

There are many who say woo why not go for more speakers... but I like the simplicity of 2.1

i have the logitech X-530
i got them refurbished for 32$ shipped
they work awsome....my room just doesn't have correct placement for speakers....if u have a semi small room u can find good places to put all the speakers
the sound quality is awsome for the price

If you don't want your whole house rumbling (and you like to listen to music)
i'd say, take the zalman 5.1 headset (i dont know if zalman is an international product) but, like the name says, its a headset with 5.1 built in. ^^

[TrainDriver]

5.1 is a gimmick on headphones, and apparently the zalmans are rubbish.

[aznfishyfart]

how can u have 5.1 on headfones?
doesn't it only have 2 sound outputs? and seeing how u only have 2 ears....

[XTM]

well, the headphone has a couple of extra speakers inside, which gives you the surround-effect

I think I would go for the 2.1. I just found the Creative I-Trigue 3300 at Wal-Mart for $54.88 .

Don't know if that one is good. But it looks pretty decent, let me check the reviews

thanks for ur suggestions. I might go for the Logitech X=230, cheap and good ^^

[aznfishyfart]

id say go for the logitech X-230
they are cheaper than 54$ and they sound awsome
