Hey everyone,
Right now I am using a pair of 2.1 Logitech Z-2300 speakers to listen to music/movies on my computer through an Asus Xonar Essence ST with modded op amps. I use a set of Sennheiser HD600s when I use headphones and they sound fantastic to me, but I'm looking for a replacement for the 2300s for an overall better non-headphone listening experience.
I do watch movies occasionally, but I am primarily using this system for music, and listen to FLAC and vinyl through it. It was easier to choose a pair of headphones to suit my needs, but determining on speakers is a different battle. I'm not bass crazy, so I don't want to say that a sub is mandatory right away, as I would favor clarity/depth/separation over a bunch of oomph.
Any recommendations as for what to look at? I'd like to keep it around $500-750, maybe even cheaper if there's something of exceptional value compared to the Z-2300s. Somebody pointed out the new Audioengine 5+ model: http://audioengineusa.com/Store/Audioengine-5-Plus#overview Any thoughts on that one in particular? As of now I'm pretty much open to anything.
Thanks!
