Just want to put in a good 5.1 speaker for my computer would be that is not Logitech speakers.  Currently have the cosair 2.1 speakers. I need something that can be use with Dac and doesn't need a receiver. Plan to use optical cable for audio connection and I have plans to mount them to the wall.

A 5.1 setup means that you have L/R channel, a subwoofer, center channel, and two behind you. You're not gonna get that for $200 my friend and it most definitely will not plug into a 3.5mm jack in your DAC.

 

EDIT: Well, I stand corrected. Didn't realize you could get them so cheap nowdays. http://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-NS-SP1800BL-5-1-Channel-Theater-Speaker/dp/B001AVRD62/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1458533818&sr=1-3&keywords=5.1+channel+surround+sound+system

 

I have no idea how the hell that subwoofer got fit into that price seeing it's about the same amount of money without all the other speakers.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

I'm half deaf in my right ear so I'm not sure I'm the best person to say if they sound good or I'm I an audiophile but I wanted something with brand name that not let me down and it had a reviewer I find creditable so it was easy choice and I've had this since they were first came out on the market and they hold up since then. It's however good time to upgrade so looking for good 5.1 system I can buy for my office.
