hey everyone im new to the whole audiophile thing i dont know much but i want my music to sound the best it can, first i was looking at logitech z5500 5.1 speakers for everyday computing use but then i was thinking i should get something better. now im thinking about getting the m-audio bx8a's from my local guitercenter for 300 bucks, so i was wondering of anybody has and thought about these speakers or recommend me different speakers, i would say my budget is in the 400 dollar range. thanks for your time
I'd second the Mackie MR5 for the price. Also, if your interested in BX8's then try to find a used ORIGINAL pair. The newer versions don't sound as good to me as the originals did.
That being said, my HIGHEST recommendation would be that you save up for some Mackie HR824's. I don't think you could do better for the money.

To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws, to be led by permanent ideals - that is what keeps a man patient when the world ignores him, and calm and unspoiled when the world praises him.

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a better place...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.
