PC speaker recommendations...

Hey Darlings.....I need recommendations:

What speakers would y'all recommend for say...medium-hardcore gaming, tons of music listening, and avid movie-watching on my PC? I don't know if my specs matter, but they're pretty damn good. Speaker systems are pretty much compatible with any type of system, no? Fill me in, thanks.

Ps. I hope this is the right forum. I figured I'd post my question in here since it dealt with speakers...

Thanks for the recommendations. I think I've narrowed it down, though there is a significant price difference between the two:

Logitech Z-2300 ($105.99)

Logitech Z-4 40 ($69.99)

If I were to get the second, would I be sacrificing a lot of quality to save some money? I heard it's a good system too though.

The quality in those speakers is exactly the same.

The penny-pincher in me tells me to go with the Z-40...but the Z-2300 just keeps on calling me with its beauty. Grr! Knowing me, I will ultimately end up buying the Z-2300 just because. I'm such a girl sometimes lol.pseudonymph24

...you should never skip on speaker quality but those two systems (and the fact they are both logitech) are both about the same in quality, which is not saying much. The Z-4's tweeter is the middle of the speaker with a mid-range to the top and bottom...its a common design. The Z-4's sub's vent is most likely in the back. Your audio knowledge is rather poor.

If you really appreciate sound you will never regret getting a BOSE companion 3 II or a companion 5

i own the older Klipsch Ultra Promedia 2.0 speakers, they are very good and have solid bass without a sub. ct1615

I keep hearing about this Klipsch. I like the way those look. I'll have to read up about them. Thanks.

Klipsch Promedia 2.1, buy two if you want surround. Best PC speakers out there for music.dgbiker1

EDIT: The Z4 sub is NOT vented on the back, or at all, so again the low-frequency performance suffers as a result- I'd be happy to upload frequency response curves for the same driver in sealed and vented cabinets if you don't believe me. And while a tweeter + midrange design is common, it's not common to see a tweeter that's the same size as the mid-range driver since it's not an optimal design.

you may be right on the he Z4 sub being not-vented, cant tell by the pic....but your still an audio noob.

P.S. why are you yelling "not" or is your keyboard busted?...or do you just lack simple intelligence that you need to capitalize words in order for your dim-witted head to remember them?

P.P.S. as i stated before, both subs are junk.
