Title: Looking for cheap computer speakers
Post by: phishmarisol on April 07, 2004, 04:25:41 AM

I mean CHEAP.  Like $30.  Don't need a sub, mids, all that stuff...just a couple reg. smaller speakers.  The ones I have now are old and probably costs like $20 but they are all I need...too bad they pop constantly.  I've looked around and can only find sets for like $150 at best buy.

Go to staples.  I don't know what best buy you are going to but the ones I've been in have had cheap speakers as well.

EDIT: These (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=1051384623746&skuId=4893814&type=product&productCategoryId=cat01055) aren't too bad.

Here is a link to the same speakers mgleason showed..but since they were sold out...I will post this link, and they are a FEW dollars cheaper...maybe the price of shipping.

I went to wal-mart and saw these computer speakers with a sub for $20 on the electronics sale rack or whatever.  absolutely perfect for playing mp3's, even rap sounds decent on em.

Picked up those Creatives at Walmart for $15...can't beat that!  For $15 speakers they sound fucking awesome.  Very clear highs, nice mids...no lows to speak of but for what I listen to at the computer it will fine.

Altec Lansing ACS 33 - $50

But I've bought them on sale for as cheap as $30-35

sound great for the $$$.
