PC Stereo Speakers

Recommended Posts

I'm looking at getting some decent 2.1 speakers for my computer, and for general audio love making. I've been looking at these for the past couple of months but i'm not sure if there is better out there for the same price . . .

 

£129

They're pretty sexy, great sound quality as far as i can tell from just listening to them in the Apple store.

 

Price range is under £200, which should be plenty.

 

These have also recently got my interest, and they're £30 cheaper than the soundstick ones.

What do you think? And what do you use for your PC/Mac/Linux based behemoth?

I have some Bose ones but there £199...

 

I compared the Bose ones that cost £199 with the harman kardon soundsticks in the store and for bass and fuller sound the JBL ones just sounded better and louder without distorting. Can't say it was far as it was a busy store, everytime i went to look at them.

 

These will be a Christmas present for myself, from my mom, so i want them to be good enough to last for 2-3 years, hence the £200> budget.

I was looking at the Harmon Kardon set up until I came across this...

I've had these hooked up to my iMac for about a year. Absolutely beautiful. They can pack a punch (although thanks to moving into a puny apartment I can't crank them up like I used to) and are THX certified. There's alot of reviews out there that really praise them - there's something to do with the speaker shape gives them really good clarity, plus the sub provides ample floor shaking bass.

 

Having heard the Harman Kardon ones, I can say that the Logitech 2300's are far better (performance and price).
