New 2.1 System
I should be getting my new PC in a week, will need some new speakers to go with it. I want a 2.1 system not too expensive.
What would you recommend?

Re: New 2.1 System
Indeed they do look odd.
You can just hide the sub on the floor, and leave to left and right speaker on your desk.

Re: New 2.1 System
Check out the reviews for the JBL Creature II, great!
iLounge gave it an A, and Amazonf has very good feedback.

Re: New 2.1 System
Got my creatures from pc world and yes they do sound really good, the sub is hidden away under the desk because the volume is controlled by touch sensitive buttons on the tiny speakers and they auto remember the last volume setting the next time you switch them on, also really loud for the size. For the price they just cant be beat
