Looking for a good PC speaker review website

[Polishwonder74]

I'm looking for a good, trustworthy site that reviews PC speakers. There are very few sound reviews at Anandtech and Tom's Hardware these days, and the old place I used to frequent, 3D Sound Surge, hasn't been updated in a while.

Even if you don't know of a cool place to dig up reviews, I could use some advice. I'm thinking about going for aLogitech Z-5300e 5.1 setup, does anyone know of any better speakers in the $150 - $200 price range?

Thanks for your time, fellas!

Did you try the 3dss forums? I find some of the advice from the regulars there to be very helpful.

Everything I hear about the Logitech's (all of them really) is fabulous, and above that you have the Klipsh speakers. I don't know what goes in between, or how much you would be looking @ for a Klipsh 5.1 setup. I think their 2.1 Promedias are priced in that range, but alas they are 2.1s.

I second that for the excellent forum there, though they don't seem to be updating the speaker reviews much anymore. The BA7800's on their main page were released a couple years ago. Link

OMFG, I didn't even notice the forums! 😱

hahaahahah, I'll have a look. That was a KILLER website back hen it was being updated, hopefully the forums are equally good.

Any others?

I got the Cambridge MegaWorks 550 THX speaker from Newegg for $200 in August and I love them. The speakers in general sound very balanced--no overpowering bass or highs or anything. The subwoofer is not boomy at all, but is natural and punchy. The satellites have good midrange (due to 3.5" drivers). Some may not be too happy with the highs since they don't have tweeters, but I think the highs are good. I think these speakers were discontinued for the Gigaworks (about $350), but you may still be able to find them if you look around enough.
