Best 2.1 Speakers for under $150?

Joshua · 12-13-2003, 07:07 AM

I have to buy a client's kid a new set of speakers for his laptop. What's the best 2.1 (Stereo with subwoofer) speakers out there in this price range?

Any specific models? I looked at the Klipsch on Amazon and there seem to be two nice sets in this price range but the reviews seem to be conflicting.

Logitech Z-2200 only $99 AR at CompUSA. I love my Z-560's...

I ended up going with these. Decent reviews and all said that they have nice volume etc...

My cousin just got the Creative I-Trique 3300 and that sounds very nice but lacked in the mid. Now there is the 3500 model and they boosted the size of the speaker. I haven't heard them, but it looks like it can handle the mids better.
A nice feature of the 3300 hundred is the remote pod. It handles the master vol, bass vol and has a headphone jack. The 3500 should have a similar remote.
