2.0 Desktop speakers for my PC

[Liviu Cojocaru]

Hi guys,

As the title says I want to purchase some desktop speakers for my PC and I want a 2.0 stereo Hi-Fi system as I've moved my Logitech Z906 in my bedroom for the SuperUHD HDR home cinema

I want to pay under 100£ for both speakers , I will get the amp separately.

I'm looking to get decent quality sound and punchy bass.

Please let me know if I can get something like this for this price and if you have any recommendations.

Thank you.

M-Audio AV32 i`m happy with them or something from Edifier like R1800t-III.

The AV 32 are way too small for me, I was looking at the 42 as well but still I think they're too small. I am considering the R1800t but I would rather go for something like the R2000 (bigger bass speaker)
I will keep an eye out for Black Friday deals...I would also like some non-amped speakers recommendations

Bit too loud for most but cheap as chips to put together. My wife hates it....

How much did you pay ?

It all came out of my attic but if you get to Cex or similar i reckon you could put something ( equally loud) together for about 30 quid.

This amp has 2 channels so i could add 2 more speakers but my wife would literally flip her lid.

Not sure how big you want them to be, but I've been using Tannoy F1 Customs for about 3 years now, they sound really nice, and you can get them quite cheap off ebay, if you look carefully enough.

Yes, these are about the right size. Thank you

This is the only other bit you need

I've bought the Microlab Solo 6C 2.0 speakers plus this DAC and some gold plated cables...I will get everything today and I will let you know how it sounds.

while it is not audiophile quality, I have been using a 300 watt sony sound bar with wired sub woofer connected to my my computer with the digital optical cable. with the graphic equalizer from my on board mb sound I find that it works just fine!

also why is it that almost no computer speakers have a digital optical imput?

Some of them do, I know about some Edifier and Logitech models. I've never used a DAC before so I am really curious to see if it makes any difference and if it's a good one for that matter.

Sorry for dp, I couldn't resist and I got the Edifier 2000RB - 149.99£ so I've connected the Microlab Solo 6C with one of my 4K TV's (very good choice) . I am really happy with the sound from Edifier (clear and crisp), the speakers look very good and they have some nice features. I also got an Asus Xonar DGX (not sure if I will keep it)

In conclusion, if you want a quality, relatively small and nice looking 2.0 system for a PC Edifier 2000RB is a great choice for around 150£

PS, I will add some pics later today
