Here you go seth...can't beat that price!

I have a pair of the Creative GigaWorks T20 and they sound very nice for ~$100, possibly cheaper.  If you want a greater low frequency extension, check out the GigaWorks T40 with the dual woofers.  They are more expensive, but still quite nice.  Neither of them has a sub.  Each of them has a very warm flavor, tilted a bit too much toward that end of the spectrum for my tastes, but I am not really complaining for how good they sound overall for $100.

I got a Harman Kardon 2.1 system from a friend, as the Bisco kids would say it can bring the UNTZ.

I've got a pair of swan speakers I bought from newegg a couple of years ago for like $170.. they're self powered and sound very, very good.  I'm pretty criticle of audio, my studio has genelec monitors and my home theater has british mission 717m, warfdale for back channels and polk audio for the mid... There's a pair of swans at parts express that seem to be well rated, although they are not the model I bought:

I use them on a photo editing system, so sound isn't critical, still they are good for the price.

Good Luck,
