Looking for good 2.1 channel computer speakers

Nov 28, 2010 5:04 AM

I'm looking for a good 2.1 channel speaker set to use with my computer. I have a cheapy $25 Altec Lansing set that just don't cut it. I love lots of mid and high, but I also want thunderous bass. I've been looking at some of the Creative and Logitech 200 watt systems. Anyone have any advice or know where I could find a deal? I've tried eBay, it's not cutting it.

I'm on a budget as a college student, but I want something that will hold up and pound out my music.

Thanks for the help Wooters! Happy holidays!

I have an older version of the Bose Companion 3 speakers on my computer. They are awesome. Besides the excellent sound, I especially like the remote volume control with headphone jack and line out.

They're probably not what I would call a "budget" choice, though.

I would definitely agree! I have heard these, they are great. I actually have a Bose Cinemate II home theater in my dorm room (got via credit card rewards, I could never afford that!), I think Bose makes good stuff.

Price-wise, it is a bit high for me. Maybe I could ask very nicely for Christmas though!! Thanks for the input!

@wootmango22: That is a good find, I have been looking at those speakers. The shipping on those is insane though! $25 bucks? That guy is just looking for extra profit. Thanks :)

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
