whta speakers are those? i'm looking around for some but really i don't know where to start in terms of brand and price. Looking to get good sound but low price. ideas?

oh and a nice sound card would be the audigy 2 or whatever it's called but for that price u could just buy a new motherboard with a nice soundchip on it

They are Mission 702e, bought them a few years ago for about £200 I think, have a really nice sound to them and cos they're floorstanding you don't have to find a shelf for them. Take up a lot of room though.

These are obviously home audio speakers rather than computer speakers, but if that's what you're after brands like KEF, B&O, Mission, Yamaha all do good stuff. Best bet is to look at the amp that'll be powering them and try and get a good match.

Amp is a Dolby Digital Sony STR DB940, but I only really use it in stereo unless I'm watching DVDs.

@mattesca, what amp and speakers? Are those speakers Pioneers, my mate had a pair similar to that?

Mission pseakers of some sort - 763s?
They&#39;re a British company, as are all the best speaker manufacturers.
