Ok, the time has finally come...I've had my computer for almost two years now and I'm still using the same speakers that came with them. They're a 3 piece Boston Acoustic set (2 satellites and 1 woofer)...still sound good but I want to get one of the higher end systems now.

The Klipsch Pro Media 5.1's are VERY nice...but for close to $400 they're kinda out of my price range.


Are there any other good 5.1 systems out there that are in the $100-$250 range?

I was thinking about getting the Logitech Z-560's, a 4.1 system (400watt)Click Here for review.

I can get these for $136 USD (including shipping).

Also: What are your thoughts on wireless vs. wired?

klipsch is nice. I always just get altec lansing because its so cheap, and its a kick ass system and its all youll ever need. and if it busts who cares, it was 70 bucks. Bad ass sound though

Ya I'm thinking of getting that exact same Logitech set. By the reviews it seems like a good deal for the performance and price.

ya, one of my friends has the logitech one

lotsa bass!! hehehe (for the size at least)

sounds quite good too

hmm...haven't seen any wireless systems...does each speaker have it's own amp then? & do they run on mains or batteries?

hehe, i spent $380 on the klipsch promedia 5.1's. . .and i dont regret it one bit.

If you want cheap 5.1 speakers and dont care about analog, try to find a set of creative soundworks dtt2200's. they pack more punch than they look like they should. They are cheap as hell, but i think they are out of production. I am sure you could find a set somewhere though.

My advice is to get the Creative Inspire 5300,which is a fairly cheap 5.1 system with great sound quality for the money you spend!
I mean you can enjoy great multi-channel sound and you can find them easily..plus they look great too and kick real in the bass!
Search a bit for them and i think you'll be satisfied!

Greetz

Cambridge SoundWorks MegaWorks 510D

These are looking pretty promising right now too...a 500watt 5.1 system for about $280
