Looking for a new set of speakers

Featured Replies

Good day simmers,

I currently have a set of speakers but looking to change them out. I’m not looking for something top of the line, more so looking for anyone that’s had a good experience with say Speakers found on Amazon etc. The only must have requirement I would be looking for is that they are a USB connection, and would also be nice to have a volume control wheel on the speakers themselves (but not necessary). 

Just looking for recommendations and what are you using for sound speakers?

 Intel I7 12700KF / 32 GB Ram-3600mhz / Windows 11 - 64 bit / NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060TI / 32" Acer Monitor, Honeycomb alpha/bravo, CH rudder pedals, Tobii 5, Buttkicker, Logitech radio panel. 

I've been using the same Corsair setup for years. Love it.

Two quality speakers and a big sub-woofer. No fancy surround sound. Love em. And my cat finds the woofer awesome to sit on.

Think it's these...

Pricey so probably not what you are looking for but awesome.

 

Prior to that, and my son has them now, quite cheap Creative Labs speakers which were absolutely fine. 

Decide on your budget.

Those look really nice & I’d imagine they sound great!

Oh yes, the enormous woofer is a couple of foot to my left as I type. I'm in  a rented cottage at mo so nothing set up to perfection. But yes, they are very high quality.

I have no need for surround sound or any of that stuff so was prepared to pay more for a quality 2.1 setup. 

I've had Logitech cheap speakers in the past that were acceptable too, so you might want to check them out. I cant advise more without knowing your budget.

Thanks for the info, Im looking to stay under 100$ for speakers. I'll cruise around Amazon and see what's available
