    Which, incidentally, is why they rock as office speakers. I'm always sitting around looking at the screen. . .

    I have CSW MegaWorks They are like 550W total, I got em a couple years ago for around 200 bucks. Sound is good to me. Alternatively you could get a separate subwoofer and then a couple monitors.

I coudn't be happier with the speakers. i use them in our bedroom for my ipod and for the television/dvd. They are the best sounding for the money. There was a set of logitechs 2.1 for more $ but they did not sound as good as the Klipsch.



    Let me second this by saying that these are the absolute best sounding speakers you are going to find for the price and outperform many sets over the $200 mark.

    Not too much bass?



    It seems like most everyone likes the Klipsch speakers.

    They have horn tweeters, so the high end stuff isn't as good. You can notice it when listening to organ music or marches, in particular.



    There, I said it. However, the Klipsch 2:1 is indeed a good set. It's much better than the Soundsticks, perhaps because the satellites are much less anemic, and the bass is very tunable.

    So the high-end sound is good for other types of music though?

    The high-end is "good enough" for other types. Really, there's not a lot of music with really clean high end. It's pretty much just organs and flutes.

    Klipsch Promedia 2.1 multimedia speakers were purchased with out sampling and based upon the recommendation of a friend who uses brand for major audio setup. I purchased from Amazon for $115.00. I am pleased using for listening to music and movies.

    I'm just kidding you made a good decision, I have been debating on "accidentally" spilling coffee on my altecs for sometime in order to upgrade to the Klipsh. Enjoy!
