I was just thinking about how most of us run a good set of speakers to compliment our headphones or vice versa but there isn’t much chatter about It on here.

I ordered a set of Vanatoo T0’s to go run along side my gaming/music rig and I’ll throw up some pics when I get it all set up.

What’s everyone running for the desktop speaker setups?

I only use speakers when it's too hot to wear headphones or IEMs so I didn't spend much. Plugged these into my desktop multi-USB charger too instead of my laptop's USB port (audio signal comes from my DAC; it doesn't have one built in). Have to cut a wide swath from around 2000hz to 7000hz but otherwise they even have enough bass, although my desk has shelving that effecitvely makes it like putting speakers closer to the corners of a room.

The speakers built into my left monitor. :ksc75smile: I only use them to listen to voicemails when needed. I generally only have my headphones on. But I would love these mini Magnepan's.

I only use speakers when watching movies on my PC with friends/family or when it's really hot so I used to just have a cheap logitech set, but I found a pretty nice Onkyo 5.1 setup with a receiver at a thrift store for super cheap.

Emotiva Airmotiv 4S... I can't imagine what I'd replace them with if they stopped working...
