Looking to spend about $30, maybe $40 if they are really good. I will use headphones more so I don't want to pay a lot. I will also consider 2.0 speakers if they are much better quality for the price than a 2.1. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

If you can get then Creative Labs L3500, then I would recommend it with no hesitation. I am not an audiophile or anything, but these speakers sound fantastic. Only thing is, when I bought these speakers they were around $50, now it looks like they are around $120 for some reason. http://www.amazon.com/Creative-Labs-I-trigue-Computer-3-Speaker/dp/B0000ADY4L

I'm thinking either Altec Lansing VS4121 or Creative Inspire T3100. Both refurbished they are cheap

They discontinued those and replaced them with the worse X-240's. I can't find them for sale anywhere now. They also discontinued the X-540s but there are some refurb ones on ebay for $48, I don't know if I could set those up to be 2.1 since I don't really have room for all the speakers.
