I'm wondering what everybodys current speaker setup is for there computers.
Mine:
I have 2 Bose Model 31 speakers hooked up as fronts, using my Regent HT-500 to give them power. and I'm using the woofer that came with my dvd player, I'm also using a Logitech Z-640 subwoofer and center speaker (in matrix mode).
It sounds pretty good, gets pretty loud to.
2 cheap ass speakers in front of me and a wimpy little sub underneath me.
headphones :music1:
creative 5.1 speakers, sound really good, cept my rears are at the side of me so it gets a little strange when the surround sound kicks in. :P
Also I am using my onboard sound and for some reason my speakers won't output as they should as in front left ain't front left etc etc. Good for games where you hear something behind you, turn round , only to find it in front of you :blink: :rolleyes:

Yamaha YST-MS201
My boy's got some newer Labtec 5.1 (but only stereo sound) because after buying those I found these sound so much fucking better.
Logitech z-540's.
i also have some logitech z-640's, used to use them, but i use headphones (sony MDR-G57's) more often than speakers so i let my dad have them for his computer (at the time he was using the 540's).
when i get to teh basement im also gonna hook up a 400watt stereo behind me...i'd do it now but i don't have speakers for it yet. :lol:

:D 800 watts of pure power, and a 200watt sub on the side :D
For the record...you don't need alot of power to get good, loud sound.
Meh, wattage means nothing to me or anyone with gray matter between their ears.
Wattage is used as a marketing gimmick. Don't be fooled. The true specs can easily be manipulated to sell product.
Go to a fine audio store(not Best Buy, Ciruit City, et al) and listen to truly good audio equipment and you'll learn something new.
I use a simple pair of JBL Pro PC speakers and they sound particularly nice.
