I have had a laptop for about 3 or 4 months now, and the speakers are absolutely horrible. I have been making beats on FruityLoops and when I try to create a bass part it can never be heard. Anyway my budget is 50 bucks or less (i'm a poor college student
). I have looked at the Alltec Lansing 121i 2.1, and the JBL DUETWHT 2.0 as two potential candidates. I need a compact system as well, my dorm room is small and crowded. Thanks for your help!
