Which computer speakers should I get?

Question

I am not a pro neither clueless with speaker systems. I listen to music a TON, watch movies and game a lot too. I was looking a lot at the Arion Legacy speakers, but I have heard that the surround sound is awesome with these cheaper Logitech surround sound speakers. I want nice audio but would it be a better choice to get the surround sound with lesser speakers? I was looking and found this pair which is a combo of both, but I am unfamiliar with Bluetooth, any help?

Answer 1

I have to disagree with Alan's suggestion of the cheap Lepai amp. It's pretty limited, both in quality and in connectivity.



Though, the deal on the Dayton speakers isn't a bad one. But, I would spring for a proper home audio stereo receiver to use with the speakers, and you can get new ones for as little as $100, such as the Sony STRDH130 on Amazon for $98. It would allow you to run four speakers, if you wish to, and to connect several analog audio inputs through it, including your computer.



The only accessories that you would need would be some speaker wire, good wire would be 16 gauge, and a roll of 100 feet of that can be had for about $12 on Amazon, and you'd need an audio cable to feed audio from your computer's output to an input on the receiver. A 25 foot such cable can also be had for about $12, as seen at the link.

Answer 2

Go one step further, buy an Lepai LP-2020+ amplifier and Dayton Audio B652 speakers. You will have true high fidelity and a good start into component audio where you can expand.



Personally I'd rather have good fidelity over surround sound any day.
