best or good enough desktop speakers

I also have an altec lansing Atp3 - bought it second pa around 2003 or 2004?
buo pa rin hanggang ngayon. pinasa ko na sa utol ko.

I laso had a couple of harman kordon 2pc speakers - ganda rin sound nya.

or you can go and test sa mga it shops. bring your phone or mp3 player to test.
pang-sound check mo some of your mp3s na madalas mo patugtugin.

isang pasada nag paradise city ng GNR malalaman mo na kung ok yung speaker. :D

I've got Creative Inspire T10s - just a 2.0 system but plenty loud for most uses, with good bass. Not sure if it's still sold but it used to go for PhP2,000. I know there's a successor to this system, sold in Singapore...I think it was the T12.

The T10 and T12 are junior versions of Creative's premium Gigaworks line, the T20 and T40. When I was shopping around, I auditioned the T10 and T20. Both were good, but the cheaper T10 had a warmer sound that was easier on my ears.

seryoso pang test ko "estranged" ng G n R though not a fan. dito ko nage-gauge yung hi's and lo's at kung superb saking pandinig yung system.

2.1 lang mga chong at i-hook ko lang dito yung ipod or mp3. ang gusto ko sana yung mga satellites may tweeters hindi lang mids. particular ako sa crash ng cymbals at nakita ko yung isang model na sinuggest dito na altec lansing. try ko i-audition sana magana yung tweets. partial din ako sa harman kardon since fan ako ng jbl pero baka mahirap makakita ng 2.1.
ang budget ko nasa 4k lang para sa ganito. di ako gagastos ng 6k up kasi kung ganun lang din, upgrade ko na lang yung home theater ko ulit. makakabili nako ng paborito kong satellites na "polk audio" or "mordaunt short" sa 6k.
gusto ko yung tulad ng sinasabi niyo bang por da buck yung kahit chipipay pero suabe.
thanks sa lahat ng nirecommend niyo,
try ko mahagilap mga yan.
salamat sa mga magsuggest pa!

nakita ko na, kaya lang mas gusto kong kahoy yung casing ng sats at hindi nakaflat sa plastic housing yung speakers.

Ano ba budget? Recent experience with altec, medyo sirain na sila now a days. Have an octane 7 and not happy with. Creative - dont bother. Edifier more on bass. Logitech no experience but many good reviews. Why not checkout jbl creatures? Maganda tunog nyan for a 2.1. Kakaiba tunog ng bass at clarity wise its very clear.

napakinggan ko yung creature, maganda tunog and mura pa. ayos talaga jbl kaya lang ang weird ng itsura. gusto ko yung conventional. planning to get jbl jembe kahit ito na lang muna.
