I used to have a set of Creative 2.1 speakers that cost me £40. They did the job well, but i was after some extra punch and sound quality. After searching on the net for various options i chose these, and boy am i glad i am! The sound quality through these speakers is superb! With a total of 505W RMS they kick out alot more sound than the majority of units available! Mine were purchased 18 months ago for £300, but they are considerably cheaper these days, although they are well worth what i paid for them.

The speakers look very nice on the desk, and produce some very good sounds. The subwoofer is an enormous 10" ported unit, which is impressive bearing in mind most PC speaker systems have a 5.25" or 6.5" sub. The only down side to this is the shear size of the sub box, its massive and you will struggle to fit it under most computer desks.

The 'control unit' is a very clever touch. It has a display screen and allows you to change the settings of the speakers. Settings include output setting, left/right and front/rear balance, centre balance, volume and sub control.

This system also goes very loud. The loudest i have managed to have it on it hald volume and half sub setting, and this rattles the radiators, pictures and door frames downstairs! If its volume and pure sound quality you're after, this is the unit for you!
