Recommended Speakers for Powerbook
I'm looking to get some real speakers to stay at my desk when my Powerbook is in my dorm at college. I was first looking at getting some Bluetooth speakers but I haven't been able to find anything that seems quality and suitable. What are your recommendations for audio speakers? I don't blast my music and I'm just a casual listener, but I don't want a piece of junk, either. Thanks!

Well I dont think you can go past the JBL Creature II Speakers.
I bought a set for my desk when they first came out and within 20mins of unpacking and hearing the sound for the first time, was on the phone ordering a set for home as well.
Still not disappointed with the sound they produce.

...naughty you - could not wait anymore... I was going to suggest AudioPhile BX4a from M-AUDIO - thats REAL speakers
Creative Labs MegaWorks 2.1
(used to be called Cambridge Soundworks 2.1)
Klipsch ProMedia 2.1
Altec Lansing (I forget the model numbers)
And I could swear there are two other brands that make speakers in the same range.
I've got the MegaWorks 2.1 and am quite satisfied. They'll likely last me another 15 years at least. Good speakers and amps from the 80s sound just as good as today's gear so one purchasing strategy is to buy something that you'll be satisfied with for a while...
