Alright guys so it's christmas time and i've been looking at some new computer speakers for a while. My budget is around $150. and i live on ebay, so ebay is fine.

some brands ive been looking at are:

Creative Labs
Logitec
Klipsch
Altec Lansing

I'm assuming these are the really popular brands, because they are the ones i could find the most info on.

Also, keep in mind that sound quality is important, but i want something with a subwoofer that will really shake my dorm room and get loud.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Ooh... fun...

It depends on what you're doing.

If you already have computer speakers get something like a Klipsch KSW 10 or 12. That will be all that's needed.

hmm.. i might have to go with the logitech. it doesnt look like you can beat those for 100 bucks. plus i like the looks of them too.

have you ever ordered from newegg.com? or should i see if i can find somewhere else. if their service is good i may just go ahead and order them now. thanks a ton.

Andre.. i do have speakers but they are cheap as*s ones that come from dell with the computer and they are pretty bad. i like to crank my music most of the time and they are starting to crack and go out from all the punishment, so i'm looking to upgrade my speakers too.

agree with eric.. Newegg is great. I'de go logitech..i have the logitech z560s and the sub shakes my room and other rooms. I love the midrange on the sats too... If you dont mind going used..you can try looking for a used set of logitech z560s(4.1) or z680s(5.1) locally for that price or lower.
