whats the best speakers out there for around 50 GBP? they have to be 2.1.

also do you guys know of any good £20 GBP speakers?
 
I like the Altec Lansing ATP3 system. It's a little old, but still very good. I'd also guess the Logitech offerings would be good, but I haven't heard them.

Sorry, i guess i should have used these: [sarcasm] D'oh [/sarcasm]

I a logitech 2.1 system arriving today (of fedex pulls their head outta their...), but it was quite a bit more than what youre looking for.
 
I just bought a set of Klipsch promedia 2.1's for $133 US. Overstock.com has them for ~$100 so thats like, what, 55-60 quid? If you want a little cheaper the Logitech Z-2300's are another great offering.

If you want to go even cheaper (sub $100 US) then the JBL Creature 2's get good reviews even though they are butt-ugly. Also the logitech Z-3's are decent and around $50 US. Not sure about the other styles, these are just the ones I recently compared before making my decision

To my ears, the logitechs tend to have more powerful bass while the klipsh have a more true reproduction of the music (much better highs).

Here is a thread I have in peripherals detailing my search for a decent 2.1 system. Check it out if you want more info.

These? This is the only set of Klipsch speakers Ive been able to find in the UK. My eternal search for their 5.1's continues.

Man, after doing some searching it does look like the Klipsch are hard to find in the UK. Strange, you english must not have enough computer nerds to make it worth it 😉

We had enough for Moblie Bartons, DLT3C T'Bred B's specifically available for order... we also have plenty of the useless stuff like flashy lights and cases.

We just dont have enough of the better makes like Klipsch and Panaflos are quite hard to find.
