New speakers

[Youngie1337]

£50-£80 for some new speakers for the summer baby. I am looking for some crisp sound speakers, with a bit of kick (bass). Crispness is the main thing.

I love the looks of the Logitech Z-5500 but that's way out of budget, unless someones selling some here lol.

Thank you.

Do you already have an amp or are you looking for an all in one system?

I'd say get a set of decent bookshelfs if u have the amp

If not, perhaps a 2.1 the same price as a 5.1 £80 - you'd get more quality for ur money rather than extra underpowered surround tweeters

No amp I gave everything away . Any suggestions on 2:1?

Anything by creative/ klipsh (or w/e u spell it) or logitech should be ok

for that price anyway

Thanks mate, that looks great. Can you explain to me how it connects to the PC and what I can do with the PC and such. I guess it's just line out?

What is the sound and bass like without your extra sub?

 

[sammytomjohn]

i actually have my sub knocked off most of the time as i find it bassy enough without it!! unless im playing a game like grid or dirt2 which has good beats! and yes its line out on my hifi to connect to pc!

Youngie, I've got an old set of Sony sorround speakers, like the type you get for your living room connected to an amp via basic speaker cable that can be found in Richer Sounds in all varieties. The best purchase is the 2 channel line in cable to go from the amp's input to the line out (green socket) on the mb/soundcard output (see pic). The link is the amp I have but any will do, check ebay for ur budget.

surround sound amp and get some decent bookshelfs. can be had with your budget, scope out ebay.

will sound much better than off the shelf 2.1 set.

 

[mrapoc]

hmm £50-80 is a bit low for a good stereo setup inc amp

•40mm horn tweeter to fill any room with rich blasting bass

Lol!! Do you even know what a horn tweeter is? The tweeter will not make a sound under 3.5Khz haha rofl
