I, like many hours of research the best speakers of 2.1 on my computer set with the ability to iPod. I looked at the Klipsch Pro Media, Harmon Kardon Sound Sticks and Bose Companion. In fairness, I listened and Klipsch Altecs. I found the Altec Lansing FX6021 3-piece speaker system worthy sound quality on both is excellent! It has some negative feedback on Altecs mainly that they have been too expensive for what you have been. that is almost $ 100 Klipsch were cheaper. I managed to reduce this stock to about $ 50. I'm not an audio file, but I can tell you that when I first heard it, I almost fell off (my others are 2.1 for about 4 years old .. believe me, many modified Altec Lansing FX6021 3-piece speaker system value) Bruce Horsby mandolin rain and Eagles Live was my first tunes .. absolutely killer! I will pay the bill by credit card, without hesitation. Remember, a version of the Klipsch offers no remote control, a big advantage for us is how the system would once a year in Mexico. So nice to sit and relax with a remote processing duties. Even the speakers are very nice compliment for flat panel display. My best price va Altec Lansing FX6021 3-piece speaker system worth S $ 249 CAD per costco.ca
