Best 2.1 system?

Best 2.1 system to use in a coinops cab?  Top price point would probably be $30.

I got these a couple of months ago. I really like them. They sound great, adjustable bass level on the back of the sub was a plus. Only a fool has the sub lvl all the up ;) ;D

I purchased the same thing and I love them.  I tucked the volume control under the CP.

I have the Insignia NS-PCS41 and am blown away at how great they really sound.  I was looking for another 2.1 set recently as the seller I got my Insignia set no longer has and was reading the reviews on the Logitech S-220 because I could get them relatively inexpensively.  On Newegg, there are lots of bad reviews.  People have trouble with the sub and the wired remote volume thing.

To the people on here that have them (mgb Drnick), what is your experience with them?

@Caparo8bit
I'm looking at your install and I think that could be fantastic mounted behind the bulb of the marquee.


Thanks for sharing so far everyone.  If anyone else has something they feel strongly about, I'd like to hear it.
