Hey- I'm looking for some reasonable desktop speakers for everyday use (Gaming, Movies, Youtube, nothing specific). Currently I have integrated audio from my monitor, which surprisingly is pretty good, and can be compared to a First-gen echo. I'm looking for something pure and basic, obviously without a dac, amp, none of that. I don't really have a certain budget, But I'd say not to stray too far past $100, and if there's a better more budget-friendly option, I would ask you to recommended that as well. I don't particularly care if it's Bluetooth or wired, as the positioning will be fairly convenient for either. Otherwise if you think there's some audio device just over than $100, then I probably will consider it. I don't have any special needs, but I do ask that if you can find something that can maintain good clarity with some extra bass, that would be great, but It's not a need. Any input helps. Thanks :)

I am NOT a professional and a lot of the time what I'm saying is based on limited knowledge and experience. I'm going to be incorrect at times.

Logitech z623

I have logitech z623 and this speaker is a big wow. Shake my room and almost break my room windows. I got a complained from my neighborhood to turn the speaker volume down because it is too loud. The speaker volume and bass were at 55%.

I’m reminded of a tech ingredients video where the guy builds the “worlds best” and “worlds second best” speakers out of household parts.

 

 

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

I think you can get Mackie CR3's for that. I got my CR5BT's for $60ish, but I had to wait for a deal to get them that low.
