I am planning on getting an X-Fi Extreme Gamer (or the Fatality version, although I dont see what justifies the extra 35 Euro price? - not the right forum, but anyone enlighten me?)

I have some junky speakers that i have had for a few years, the 10 euro from a supermarket type things... not very good.

I have mostly been using my headphones (Grado 325i) but want to get a set of 2.1 speakers. I don't have a very big budget, maybe 100 euro ($150). I will be using them for some music listening, but mostly for gaming. any and all games basically. I saw in another thread someone suggested the Klipsch Promedia 2.1 but I cannot find anywhere that I can get them. Amazon.co.uk dont do them, and Amazon.com will only ship them within the US. So anyone have any suggestions for me?

Thanks alot!

Take a look at the M-Audio AV40s, they are 2.0 speakers but put out enough bass so you dont really need the .1. They are designed for sound producers in mind, so they sound pretty well balanced (maybe leaning more towards lower end, but the highs are great too) and they can go surprisingly loud. I tried them at the store I work at and they sound amazing for such little speakers. Almost as good as my 5.1 setup, except lacking a little in sub-80hz frequencies
