2.1 Speaker Recommendations?
RoninEditor:
Hey all! I've been trying to find a rock solid 2.1 speaker system for my cab, it's kind of the hold-up at the moment. Personally, for my home computer, I looooooooove the Altec Lansing VS4121, perfect crisp sound and big compact bass:

I'm probably just going to order another set of these but the awkard thing is how slim they are, which usually is an asset. I'm going to route speaker lines and these might not work too well for that, especially with the bottom of the speaker being that fat circular base, which would have to be suspended, not really flush.
In Saint's book, he used the Klipsch Promedia: http://www.amazon.com/Klipsch-ProMedia-2-1-multimedia-speaker/dp/B000VKXYDE/ref=sr_1_21?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1208847194&sr=1-21
Those are way outta my price range. Have you guys found anything around $50 that kicks like the Altec Lansings and are more 'square'?

After listening to them in store at Frys.
They have great sound for the price imo, and the woofer is compact. Plus I liked the separate volume control that I mounted on the side of my rig.

I went with Logitech Z3 speakers; they have a nice volume dongle with a headphone jack which was important to me. A little over $30 shipped here for open box refurbished: http://tinyurl.com/3ws4zr - $40 for sealed refurb: http://tinyurl.com/3nvkdm
They sound good; I probably wouldn't use them for a jukebox, but for arcade sounds they are fine.

I know you said you had a $50 price range, but if you can hold out or decide not to go the cheap route, this is what I used...
