Which computer speakers for $40

[Perry125]

I need speakers for my computer to listen to music.

They have to have a powerful, adjustable subwoofer and good mids and highs.

I want the sub to be able to shake my room when I want it to.

I was thinking about these three, please tell me which would be the best

Just do what I did and get an old receiver and a set of speakers and headphone to stereo cable. My whole setup cost me about $15-20 after you add in the cable and the audio cable extenders I bought. From my experience you won't be able to get a good system for your pc that will shake your room as you said for anywhere near that much money.

I thought about that but I think it would end up costing much more. I think id need a fairly new receiver to receive digital sound, then add in a sub and good speakers.

I dont need crazy bass just somewhat impressive. I think the 12" tall sony sub in my basement is pretty good.

OMG I have these for my computer and I was blown away at the sound quality and bass for the money. I would 100% recommend these hands down! They go friggin loud too.

logitech THX are the only computer speakers i'd suggest buying.

They're really worth saving up for.

Newegg.com - Logitech Z-2300 200 watts RMS 2.1 Speaker System

Sister has these... they rock.

I had these:

Rage3D - Logitech Z-5300 Review - Introduction

Decent, but i nuked them pretty quick.

Get the Z 2300...

$100 isn't bad at all...

Summary is... anything thats not logitech THX is prolly chit.

even the new logitech THX look ****ty... the Z 5500/5300/2300 series were good though.

I've got the Z-2300 setup.

The sub shakes my room.

Is $40 on the low end?

[Perry125]

$40 is about what i wanted to spend, i guess i might should wait until xmas to get them.

I thought the $40 Logisys would be pretty good, they have a 35w sub with a 6.5" driver but the z-2300 has an 8" 120w.

You guys are probably right the little 35w subs will not be good enough. The one in my basement is 8" 75w and i think it is just good enough.

Thanks, ill probably just get the z-2300 or similar for xmas

You could always get a cheap surround sound system and use the audio cable I mentioned before.

[matt5112]

cheap surround systems would sound worse than the ones I linked.

Especially if they're anywhere near the price.
