The Best PC Speakers

[ddferrari]

I've been very pleased with my Creative GigaWorks T40 II set for several years. I recently added the desktop Schiit Fulla 2 DAC and headphone amp (yes, the "fulla schiit") for $99 and now they really shine. Smooth, balanced and punchy with a cloth dome tweeter. Bass isn't rattling any windows but what's there is tight and musical, and one could always add a sub. They look good, too.

I have $0.99 cents speakers bought at Goodwill, I just want to know what people say on youtube and im happy

So did I somehow missed the 5.1 and 7.1/7.2 speaker section? Or this isn't a thing anymore?
Luckily my Edifier S760D ( http://www.edifier.com/int/en/speakers/s760d-5.1-gaming-speakers ) speakers still work perfectly, but... if I had to start looking for replacements?

So I stopped buying this type and moved up to real studio monitors. For only a tiny bit more money http://www.alesis.com/products/view/elevate-5-mkii Alesis Elevate 5's are quite the improvement in sound and I don't need a subwoofer anymore and the power brick is inside the speaker so only a cable going to the wall. Just a suggestion?

I would definitely be buying the Logitech Z623 speakers again if I need more. There is also the Z625 version that has an optical input, but it's not worth an extra $40 just for an optical input.

Is there a section for Dolby speakers for PC?

Dolby does not make speakers.
For PC speakers just get Swan M50s, I've tried the Klipshe the Altec Lansing, Logitechs all have boomy bass and little midrange.
The Swans hit it right on all the points, Easy 1 button puck for on/off volume. Nice sub that is musical not boomy, accurate performing satelites.
Companct yet smooth sound with decent bass fill.
And they are good looking too.

They should sound head and shoulders above the competition since they are almost twice the price of the Klipsch Promedia and three times the price of the Logitech Z623

I'm still using my Logitech z-2300 2.1 system. I bought this on ebay refurbed in 2007. they still sound fantatic.

Yup, my old Logitech Z-2300 speakers work great too. My only complaint with them is the highs aren't bright enough but other than that, they're wonderful

My Bose companion multimedia speakers sound is superb at only $200.

I bought a pair of these Klipsch R-51M bookshelf speakers back in December 2018. I am glad I did and for the price of 124.99 a pair. The style and the quality is what caught my attention. And I said now these are speakers that will give excellent sound for a long time. So im using these on my laptop and was recommended to use with a Lepai LP-2020TI Digital Hi-Fi Audio Mini Class D Stereo Amplifier.

I hooked up these two and I was blown away .......the sound is excellent, no doubt.

Bookshelf speakers and an amp aren't computer speakers. In every thread about computer speakers people try to tell us what we really need are bookshelf speakers and an amp.

Funny - I'll read articles like these, think I'm missing out on great sound, buy them and realize that what I have has always been better. Klipsch ProMedia 2.1.

The last thing I had was the Creative T4W, which is their top-of-the-line speakers and didn't sound half as good as the Klipsch speakers. Plus they crapped out after six months.

No more experimenting. It's Klipsch for me until I can actually see and hear something better.

I used to buy Klipsch until I realized that all ended up having problems with the amp and out of warranty- with all the money I spent I could have bought 2 sets of MM-1s and got a wayyyyyy better sound.
