Ira, Your CD Player Hates Prince! What Speaker System Can I Get 4 My Computer So P Doesn't Sound Like He's In a Tin Can?

For all of you computer experts--I need some help! LOL My Sony 5 Disc Player for my stereo (which my X left me with) gave out and tried to eat my Prince CDs I just bought! What are some good state of the art speaker systems I can buy for my desk top computer system--PC--so Prince's music doesn't sound like it is reverberating in a tin can! Please, give advice, if you have some! In the meantime, I'll do my due diligence with on-line research, but could sure use advice from experts! sad

I just have this Microlab subwoofer/amplifier and small speakers. Same thing connected to my TV but with a bigger subwoofer. Not brilliant, but awesome for the $40 I paid for the smaller setup and $60 for the bigger.

MY COUSIN WORKS IN A PHARMACY AND SHE SAID THEY ENEMA'D PRANCE INTO OBLIVION WITH FENTONILS!!

Thanks so much! How is the sound quality of your speaker system? What I want to avoid is the "tinny ringing" effect when the bass on a guitar and other instruments are played--esp. when it comes to Prince! How is the sound on your system? Mine is really awful razz

It's very good for the price, but in relative terms, mediocre. I've had excellent separates systems in the past though and I'm happy with how these sound.

p.s. I have no idea where these are made though. I bought mine at Pantip Plaza in Bangkok, a tech mecca. I have no idea if they're a known brand or not, local or international.

Thanks, anyway, really appreciate the response. I think I'm limited to what I can get from a "Brick and Mortar" store like Best Buy or on line, so I'll do my research but I sure appreciate the feedback! smile
