Recommend a decent 5.1 set?

[Mark Larson]

I'd like to buy a set of cheap but decent 5.1 speakers for my computer - I don't need anything huge or fancy, just something to replace my old 2.1 system until I get my 5.1 receiver system back.

I was looking at the Logitech X-540's - about $70-75 everywhere. Is there a better option at or below this price? I'd like to buy it from Amazon because I have a $50 gift cert there.

If you want that cheap, I'd say you're stuck with logitech.

Which isn't a bad thing considering you have to spend over 100 for a sound card that can output a decent analog signal. Realtek is great with digital but sucks hard with analog.

Expensive speakers are not going to make bad audio quality sound great. But logitech will give you great quality in my view.
