Computer speaker recommendations

[Doug Vitale]

I am looking to get a 5-speaker set for around $100, to be used for music and video games. Can anybody recommend any particular make or model? Thanks.

honvetops always recommends the Logitech thx z-5300e set.
From looking at Newegg, they are about $130, but apparently worth every cent.
Never had a surround sound setup myself.

I would recommend anything Logitech. They are a really nice name brand.

Never had a surround sound setup myself.

I had it for the TV in the living room and I used to hook it up to my dad's laptop and play Halo Online. Really awesome...although irrelevant...

I hate Philips.... lol j/k! I have never owned any Philips stuff so I wouldn't know. Most of my hardware that I buy is Logitech cause they make very good quality stuff. I've never had any problems with them so I really like and trust them. But Philips is probably good too.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I finally decided on these speakers:

It's the Logitech z-5300e. For the money, I don't think anything else is better.

Had a set of Creative 5.1 speakers myself. They were fantastic. Only changed them for a set of Creative 7.1 speakers.
