which speaker shld I get

[aceMan]

Hi guys,
I ostly use my PC to listen to music. My sound is onboard AC97.
It is Direct Sount and Blaster compatible
Full Duplex 16-bit record and playback (as on MOBO manual)

I would like u to suggest which speakers are good. I wld like one with subwoofer. I dont listen much to pop and never rock. Mostly new age and classical so I think this onboard is ok.

Now for the speakers my budget is only abt 65(singapore) that is almost 35US$
Here are the stuff near my budget. So which one shall I get

1. Altec Lansing ACS 33 Sub-woofer Speaker System
2. Altec Lansing ACS 65IU Sub-woofer Speaker System
3. Creative Inspire 2400 2.1 Sub-woofer Speaker System
4. Creative PC-Work Sub-woofer Speaker System
5. Creative SW320 2.1 Speaker w/Sub-Woofer

Advice please thx.

Go somewhere,stereo store ,computer shop ect. and listen to them. Then buy the ones that sound best to you. Everyone hears a little diffrently , my spending alot of money on good speakers is a waste. I can't tell the diffrence ;to much Pink Floyd, or Alice Cooper in my past I guess. :D

Thats the problem.
The comp shops I know dont demo sounds from speaker.

Base on quality which one Lansing or creative?

Hi aceMan,

I have the ACS33 setup, best budget (under $50) speakers in my opinion and I would highly recommend then.

You wont be disappointed with Altec Lansing. Pretty much any of their speaker sets sound great. The Creative Inspires that I demoed at futureshop do not have as full sound as the Altecs. Personally I own a set of Boston Acoustics and I think their about the best computer speakers on the market.

i am EXTREMELY happy with my Altec Lansing ATP3 speakers (http://www.altec-lansing.com/product_details.asp?pID=ATP3&sID=2) They sound great and were pretty cheap too.

Also, you might want to check out the Logitech Z-340. Retail in the states for $39-$49. For the $$$ the sub will blow you away (and BTW, I Own a set of Altec 621's and ACS 295's, and love 'em....so not knocking Altec in the least).

My vote is for the $50 Labtec Pulse 424.
Best 50 bux you will spend....good thing they have a volume control on the sub.
