Audio upgrade

[monsur]

I want to go for an audio upgrde for my pc and i have only 5000 to spent.So i searched the net and became more confused.so guys pls help.i want to buy a 2.0/2.1 system.which is a better option:-


1-A simple 2.1 setup from Altec,creative etc...
2-A cheap speaker+soundcard
(doea a cheap sound card really makes any difference?)
3-A pair of bookshelf+Amp from the grey market.

I am mainly into music and movies.I want good clarity and deep impacting baas ,not tons of bass all over the place that the logitechs offer(no offence intended towards logitec consumers,but honestly i have heard them and they sounded horrible to me.)
