Looking for an OUTSTANDING computer speaker system.

[mrpotatohed]

I need a little tech help here. I want a really good subwoofer/speaker system for my comp. I listen to a lot of music here and these little crappy stock speakers just dont cut it. I'm willing to spend a little more for them but I want show stopping, "OH WOW" power.

Anybody into speakers and such and can tell me what to look for and what brands are the best? thanks

I reccomend this, best bung for your bucks..plus you can use them with any nextgen Console too with the included adaptor.

Amazon also has this with free shipping I think..

Pfft. If you really want good sound, then don't use computer speakers at all. Run a line from your PC to a quality component stereo system. And no cheap stuff or gimmick stuff. Older speakers are best. My dad has some insane stuff...

and I play call of duty I can hear every single bullet cut the air and hear it pass from the front to the back movies and explonsions make you think you are there. great great speakers. A good sound card is important as well. music is awesome on them as well. not the best looking but geat sounding.

huh I only got mine for 50 with s&h included :?

btw anyone know if this speaker support EAX or advanced stuff besides dolby digital? Or does it only matter for the sound card? I'm not sure if both the sound card and the speakers need to be EAX compatible in order to get that fuction.

EAX and advanced stuff is all sound card dependent.
