New computer speakers 2.1

[Grolubao]

Hi to all!
I live in Portugal, and in here few people cares about really good
speakers. Because of that the choice is a bit limited.
I used to have a set of Monsoon MM-1000 and I loved it! They were by
far the best speakers I´ve had, but now the left sattelite began a
strange noise and so I decided to buy a new set of speakers.
I´ve bought the Logitech Z-2200 and I´ve very disapointed, the
speakers are very agressive, and have lot´s of high´s and mid´s. The
sound is very crunchy and being used to the monsoon for about one and
an half year, it´s really disapointing.
I´m going to return the Logitech´s, but I must buy new ones.
I already know the monsoon closed the deal, so I wanted some advice on
the new speakers. I´ll basically hear music and games, not much for
movies.
I have acess to Creative, Altec, Logitech and the Klipsch Promedia GMX
A-2.1 but I´ve read some report of some hissing.
I´m really picky about sound, and I want something good and surround
is not important to me. It´s just, at this price you can already get some monitors...
In musicstore there´s some monitors for the same price like these:

Behringer
"B 2030A Truth Studiomonitor aktiv, 6,5/1""

FOSTEX
"PM-05 Studiomonitor aktiv,

Behringer
B 2031A Truth Studiomonitor aktiv 8/1"

Yamaha
"MSP 3 Studiomonitor aktiv, 4" Bass/7/8" HT, 40w"

And some Roland...

I´m a bit confused... All help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance to all!

Get the Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speaker system... retails at $150 and its much better than the GMX version (meant for video game systems etc)... look for some reviews online. You'll see they're great speakers.

I love mine... I listen to music all the time and these have been great for me (plenty loud as well).

The problem is that here in Portugal there´s only the GMX version of the Klipsch...

you can get the gmx but not the promedia?? have you asked the store that has the gmxs about it? its weird i dont see why they wouldnt be able to like special order one in for you... if they cant thats a really crappy situation.

umm... maybe Ebay? Thats where I bought mine from, actually. Shipping would be a pain and require some money but... usually the prices on Ebay (used systems) are cheap enough that you might be able to get one for about the retail price of a new one.

I dont know, good luck!
