Speaker recommendations for Audigy

I'd like to find some decent speakers to go with my Audigy soundcard. I read somewhere that in terms of sound quality, digital is really the best way to go, but I don't see much in the way of digital speakers around except the really expensive Cambridge Soundworks. I'd like to try to cut things down to about $100USD if I can, not sure what's out there that's good for that price range. They'll be mostly used for listening to music on my PC and playing games -- I rarely watch movies so it seems as though 4.1 is probably the way to go?

Anyway, looking for suggestions.
 
Logitech's THX certified Z560 4.1 a bit more then you want to spend but well woth the difference, especially if you have a nice sound card. $160 shipped newegg.
 
Well, despite what some may think, I personally think the older Creative FPS2000 digital speakers aren't too bad for the money. I thought the sound quality was actually pretty good considering the cost. This place has a liquidation price of just $45, and yes, these are DIGITAL speakers.

You'll find a review of it over at 3dsoundsurge.com.
 
I did look at those Z560's and they do look good. Are they digital though? Is that what the THX certification means? I'll obviously have to do some homework to figure out more about this. And should I bother with trying to get digital or does it really sound much different?
