for 4 grands you can get a 5.1 sound system. Go in for a Creative 5.1 T6060 or something, also Logitech X-540 5.1's. Both are good, but I'd recommend Creative.

[techtronic]

You can also add Altec Lansing Speakers.

fyi, x-540 is lot better when compared to T6060,with very clear and crisp audio. Creative used to make good speakers earlier but donno what happened, their speakers suck now. No real competitor to Al's and Logitechs.

+1
i have Creative T6060 speakers. The bass is overdone nd not tight enuf. But X540's bass too isnt tight enuf.
X540 has exceptional treble with its dual neodimium drivers on each satellites.
X530's nd 540's woofer is too delicate on sides, so adds much to reverbration. So bass gets muddy. T6060's woofer is lil better, but cant justify enuf.

if u wanr the speakers just for music, i wud suggest getting a music system speakers or a good assembled one with quality amplifiers. Also look for wooden boxes for fitting the speakers.

If u still want a 2.1, then Altec lansing ATP3 wud be the best choice @ 2.7k

^^ ATP3, I think is out of production. for pure 2.1, also check Philips MMS430. Very loud and clear audio quality. This one's direct competitor to ATP3, thanks to it's extremely balanced bass,treble and mids.

i dont want a 5.1 system . my room is quite small so no use having a 5.1 all i want is to blast music .

[dOm1naTOr]

But techtree rates the philips one as average.

[desiibond]

okay. Then check the Philips MMS430. Should suit your need. Very very loud speakers.

[dOm1naTOr]

after going through all this i have decided to go for the phillips mms 430 ... thanks everyone .

[dOm1naTOr]

Y?go for MMS430 it distorts at volume higher than 60%
it has weak bass
but the altec 2100 has real gud bass nd is currently available for 4k

[desiibond]

distorts at 60%??

I don't think so. I have this set and lot of times I turn up the full volume. Lot of times I can't even go to full volume coz at the half way mark, it's extremely loud.

It does not have weak bass. What Philips did is it configured sub to be on same level with the satellites. That way, though you get lot of bass, you will not lose those very important mids and highs.

How much is this one?? if you can get it inside your budget, then it will be one hell of a buy.

AL 2100 also looks good but don't know how good it's sound is.

[dOm1naTOr]

its as techtree says

[desiibond]

^^ I would rather trust my ears over what techtree says.

[dOm1naTOr]

The philips one has good looks nd i personally has gud past experience with Philips[some headsets i own] but dun know y techtree has written bad things bout it.
