Hey, I'm looking to upgrade my personal listening setup (right now I have a Logitech z5500 with JBL N24s replacing the fronts and a set of Altec Lansing MX5021). I'm thinking of a maximum budget of $300.
Here are my choices:
Swans M50w (2.1 setup, 3" drivers and a 6.5" "sub") http://www.swanspeaker.com/product/htm/view.asp?id=443
Swans M200mkII (Powered Monitors) http://www.swanspeaker.com/product/htm/view.asp?id=364
Craigslist setup- get a pair of used tower speakers (JBL, Yamaha, etc) and a cheap receiver (yamaha and onkyo)
Get a cheap Yamaha or Onkyo receiver, and some Polk Audio bookshelves and maybe a cheap sub
HTIB, use the receiver and fronts for a 2.1 setup
My preference is to have good audio, I like to listen to rock, instrumentals, techno, and mostly lighter music. I do use it to game and watch movies but I have a HTIB to the TV for that.
What would be my best choice(s)? Anything else?
