Recommendation For Computer Speakers

[Callum B]

After many years I am planning to replace my original computer speakers for something just, better.
I have already found one possible replacement (GigaWorks T40 Series II 2.0) which my friend also has so I know they have terrific quality, the price is around right at £100 so I was wondering if there are any better suggestions as to what I should buy?

Actually they're £83.98 with free shipping in UK. 👍

I can't recommend anything, sorry.

Still, giving me a better price is always a great help, thank you.

I got a set of these. They are awesome and have great sound quality for the price

They do look rather good, thanks for the suggestion they've been saved in my favourites for a time I can afford them.

2 speakers and 60watt sub for $60?

Damn, that's a sweet deal.

I have these for 3 or 4 months now and absolutely loving them.

Before I had a 2.1 setup also from Logitech:

Yep also at one point a few weeks ago they were only £43 on offer. I think they sound really good for the money and as you can see from the reviews people who know more about sounds systems seem to like them to. When I got them for the first time I naturally had to crack them to the max and even then they had very little distortion.

 

[Callum B]

I'm not sure if surround sound will work due to there not being a an awful lot of room to put them but still thanks for showing me them.

It was just a experiment but it was blowing my mind and it is fantastic
I have replaced my 2.1 teufel system with 2 of this great speakers.
So clean and so mutch pressure. Its pure joy for the ears and stomach.
Cars feel more alive because more sound detail and you dont need a buttkicker anymore

1,600 watts and $1,400/pair.

No thanks.

A reasonably priced set-up would be a pair of Dayton MK402 speakers with a mini-amp like this one:

This is something I'll probably be getting, though ideally I would need to get the computer tower off my desk.

That would cover down to 50-60Hz. I'm not sure how easy it would be to get a subwoofer to cover the lower frequencies.

1,600 watts and $1,400/pair.

No thanks.

They are on sale here in that Thomann Music store(330€). I would not pay the full price either
Power consupmtion when turned on 17watt each (35watt booth)
Power consumption while racing(loud) is arround 60-80watt
Power consumption while music(loud) is arround 40-120watt

Output volume on speaker is set to 100% and input volume is set to 70%, Tv output is on 10/100
Maybe you can rise the max peak power by playing some testsounds but at normal using(gaming&music) they dont need mutch power!
Just tested it for you this morning with my power meter.

If you find them on sale... grab them.

If I need good sound, I skip the computer speakers and go to my theater room.
