Best 2.1 Speakers?

The MX5021 has cleaner mids and highs w/ ample bass. Z2300 is all about bass and muddy midrange.
 
The Klipsch i-Fi's are the best computer speakers with a amp in the sub (making them computer speakers). This is because they use the RX-3 bookshelf speakers that have a lot more quality in them then any other computer speakers around, and throw in a high quality sub. You can get them for around $200 on ebay. After that, Klipsch ProMedia 2.1.
 
All of the above are decent stereo speaker systems - but, they are not the "Best." It may be out of your league - but the cool factor is obvious in addition to the technology factor.

Not computer speakers.... computer speakers have a amp in the sub (if one is included) or the right speaker (if their is only 2 speakers).
 
Thanks for all the replies 🙂 I'm looking into the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1's right now... unfortunately the iFi's are a bit too expensive for me! 🙁

Yea, the Klipsch iFi is pretty expensive, and the Promedias are really old, but are still some of the best quality computer speakers.

Where does he say "computer speakers" ?
 
Rediculous notion! All speakers can be used with a computer - and the fact is, they perform better than computer speakers. You simply connect an audio amplifier/pre-amp to the sound cards line out port. You'll get sound never heard by limited computer speaker users.

 
I use the Altec Lansing Fx6021. The bass is weaker and less defined than the Klipch promedia, but the highs and mids are much crisper and more well defined.
 
Microsoft made a really great set of speakers called the Miscrosoft Digital Sound System 80 back in the days and they were by far the best speakers i have heard. The highs and lows were very crisp. It featured 2 satellites and 1 dual speaker subwoofer made by (i believe) Phillips. You can find a few on ebay (Here is one)

BTW, i still have mine and they still work great!
