Suggestions for budget computer speaker setup

[spy king]

Hello

I have been reading these forums for the past couple of hours and now need help

What would be the best 2.1 setup I could get for my computer system for about 5k?

after much reading, my mind is set on the Edifier C3, But I can't seem to find them anywhere.. would there be any alternatives?


Thanks

Try the Creative T20. Don't know the local prices but for desktop purposes they sure sound good! There are also higher versions available T40 and T3

Cheers.

would anyone have inputs on the Edfier line of speakers?

esp the Edifier C3?

Dude I love my edifier c3's. I'm using them movies, music and gaming. I've never gone over 1/3rd the total volume. They are damn loud and damn clear....they really fill the room. Its a poor audiophiles dream come true. If u know someone in Mumbai ask them to get it from Alfa in Irla which is near mithibai college....

Not sure if Microlab is available in India, butit's a good choice especially the X3 2.1 system (the cubical speakers look like BOSE).

If you still have not bought the speakers consider buying the audio engine a5 (18k approx)

They will not let you down.
