Title: PC speaker set
Post by: Reb on June 25, 2014, 10:50:45 AM
So I forgot to add some kind of audio while building my PC.
I thought that I would handle it with headphones, but it turns out I would like to have audio without me putting something on/in my ears.

So, is there a simple 2.0 speaker set you guys can recommend me?

My Logitech Z-10 speakers are awesome. It's worth paying a little bit extra to avoid that horrible tinny sound.

I would go with a 2.1 set also.

2.1 definitely:

If you have the dough, you could also just get two monitors:

I do like the set, but since the entire machine cost me around 450 EUR to build, I think it's kind of excessive to spend 200 EUR on audio.

Also, the Logitech Z-10 are no longer being sold I think, after looking around.

These are 2.1 but they are so good I've bought them twice in my life:

Co-sign on this. On the lower-end side, Logitech's Z323 is pretty good as well.

Very nice looking for the price. Nowhere to be found in Holland though.

I think those are more my price range, although they look bad now I've seen the other ones.  :)

You might use those longer than your pc tho.
