Guest Promo Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Hi guys, I want to get my father some PC speakers for Father's Day and my budget is £50. What would you recommend which are going to sound half decent for that price. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modey Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Probably blasphemy but I find Logitech speakers are actually pretty decent. I bought a Logitech 5.1 system about a year ago and it's quite good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Promo Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Mm budget has gone up to £140 ish. I've been looking at the Altec Lansing MX6021 - some are saying good and others are not?? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Altec-Lansing-MX6021-200-Watt-Speaker/dp/B0024NKA1K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1339073837&sr=8-2 BCM, can you recommend a specific Alba model?

Guest Promo Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I use these and they are excellent. http://reviews.cnet....ent;contentBody They look decent but see they're only 2-way. Is there good definition with all the frequencies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squee Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 A friend of mine has this set http://www.amazon.co...9075788&sr=1-15 He uses them for gaming, music listening (not producing), and movies, and they are definitely entertainment speakers because the bass is fucking intense! I would buy those if I was you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcock Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 you could get a set of krk's for like 180 second hand, and they are an beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Promo Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Mm shame the Altec Lansing MX5021 don't seem to be available anymore. Seems they've been superseded by the MX6021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sirch Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 funny how the budget has gone from 50 to 140! but if i were you i'd just get a pair of Alesis M1 320's... for like, 60 quid. or the next ones up from the 320's. i had a pair a few years ago for my laptop and they're decent enough. personally i'd never buy anything by Creative or Logitech, or ALBA, for that matter! haha.. ALBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Promo Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Yeah I realised after that comment that BCM was being his usual positive and bubbly self lol. Oh and the budget has gone up as I've got my sister's to chip in now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sirch Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 cool. btw, are you looking for a multimedia-type speaker setup for gaming/films, or just speakers for listening to music files/CD's, etc. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Promo Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 It'd be just for listening to files/cds music. What about these - I think they'd be pretty versatile? http://www.productio...on/samson-sd4i/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
