    I've got an Audigy2 ZS just itching for a set of speakers good for gaming and listening to music. I was thinking a 5.1 setup, but 4.1 should be quite acceptable also.

    Any suggestions?

    I have the same card and I'm using 6.1 Inspire from Creative. They're awesome. The volume goes up to 8 on the volume control and I can't raise it higher than 4 as I'm scared my windows will break. The bass is also great. You can feel the power.

    If you play games such as Call Of Duty, during the battle scenes it'll feel like you're actually there. Watching DVD's such as Band Of Brothers is something to experience as well with these speakers.

    Also, I recently purchased a set of 5.1 headphones, and the speakers were connected to these so it's pretty much future proof for a while in any case.

    Hope this helps. Oh and because they've been out for a bit, you should be able to find these 6.1 speakers fairly cheap too, so it won't cost you. Try newegg.com or bestbuy.com
