because i already have a set of logitech x230's which are mains powered. And usb speakers just wont have the power output i'm looking for, i want my windows to rattle whenever i hadouken

Marsupial:
you'd be surprised at how much USB powered speakers can blast. I got a set from a local surplus (they were on liquidation) and I was thinking of using them on the go, but powerfull as it is, I will keep them as a main source of speakrs for the PC.

On my cab, I go a totally opposite route as you. I want the PC in the cab to remain powered. But I modified a power bar to run from the switch on the top of the cab. This powers the marquee, monitor and speakers. So I can leave the cab "off" and still have computer activity.
One could power the whole PC this way too.

It sounds like a smart strip would work perfectly.  Plug the pc into the control outlet on the smart strip and then plug your other devices into the other outlets.  When you turn your pc on, the other outlets will power up in effect turning on those devices.
