Can anyone recommend any "multimedia" ie shielded speakers, that give good music performance for under £50.

 

(Not for me, my absolute zeros do me fine, thankyou very much)

I picked up a pair of Hitachi walkman / multimedia speakers from Currys for £25. Very good they are as well...

You mean like a 5:1 system?

Nah, not a 5.1 system, just a couple of speakers that don't sound tinny as [censored]

Theres sum fab ones i saw in PC World (that u can buy a lot cheaper thru a magazine or website)

 

They are very small, but obviously dont sound it.

 

You want them for PC use?

Yeah, a friend wants to hook up her laptop.

 

Although I am tempted to perusade her to just buy some separates from Richer Sound

Look on cuomputer web pages m8, get them dead cheap compared to shop prices!

are usually good bets for computer components.

 

I've got some Yamaha YST-M40s and they do a pretty good job, not sure how much they are tho.
