Monoprice MM-3 vs. Audioengine A2+ vs. Micca PB42X

[thvSPARK]

Looking for a pair of small-ish speakers that I can put on a desk and use in a bedroom/dorm. I'm very far from an audiophile, so I probably won't notice any slight differences in sound. Right now, I can get the MM-3's for $110 USD, the A2+ for $269, and the PB42X for $120. Are any of these options better than the others for any reason? Or are there others that you would recommend?

 

Thanks for any help!

Ehhh, the PB42X/MB42's aren't as good as alot of people say, they just don't measure well, and are power thirsty.

 

Out of just those 3, I would go with the AudioEngine A2+'s. They sound good, look great, and use standard speaker wire to connect them together, not a proprietary cable. Plus they have a USB input if you wanted to use them with a laptop on the go in a hotel or something similar.
