Any suggestions for a 100€ price range?
Maybe some korean/chinese stuff but that sounds close to or as good as the much more expensive known brand stuff... Like the hd668's, but for 2.0/2.1 speakers.

Yes please. I also would like to have chyna#1 speakers! Those monitor speakers suck ass, even though Equalizer APO is helping A LOT.

i have been using my 20y old jvc boombox recently, loving it for movies n games, helicopters sounds like the rotors really pushing the air away, and just overal crispy clear nice bass loaded sound

https://www.olx.pl/oferta/radiomagnetofon-jvc-radio-magnetofon-2-kieszenie-i-odtwarzacz-cd-3-sta-CID99-IDqCJe3.html (the one i got when i was 16y old, im 38 now ..., still using it ) , jaiks 22 years .... quality

maybe try and snag one of those for 100 eur. multifunctional and lasting decades sofar, even when a 10kg window fell on top of it in its early days. daily used still going strong and when u stand in the corner u feel that bass like u at a concert as it has its own built in subwoofer for each seperate speaker, n surround options n plenty of options

just sits on the flooor undernearth my table, or could also hang it above the monitor on a shelv

day and night compared to logitech or primax junk they charge 50-80 euro for

Totally get the Mackie cr3 or cr4 if You have the room. It's a good audio brand.
Not sure if it's just as hidden gem as Koss Porta Pro headphones but it's very good and simple.
Normal good fucking stereo speakers that sound great in most scenarios and are great for easy cable setup.

They even give You foam pads to angle the speakers
https://www.amazon.com/Mackie-CR3-Creative-Reference-Multimedia/dp/B00KVEIY4E

They sound great on low and high volume, music, games whatever. Very nice stereo separation, bass reflex port out the back, woofer and tweeter in the front

Those what KillerCrocker linked are probably your only choice if you dont go for used stuff, some great deals can be found for bargain prices. As far as i know, there is not anything good chinese / korean stuff on speaker department like on headphone markets, there has been however speakers + amp from Scythe (yes the cooling manufacturer), Scythe krocraft Rev B speakers, which were pretty amazing deal for the price (like little over 100 euro for speakers + class D amp).

Corsair's SP2500 was apparently priced at 99$ unfortunately it seems to have been discontinued years ago.

Probably doesn't compete against more professional speakers but with that price range they were pretty well received for what they offered though having been EOL'd that's a dead-end now.

I've not seen it available for years.
And coming from 2.1(formelly 5.1) to 2.0, I like the stereo separation and the cable management and space saved is worth it

I only have cr3. Cr4 have more bass but I find cr3 more than satiafactory in that regard (and all others).

Good decision.

Also with the wood they look more elegant than those other toy speakers recommended here. Very Happy

Give some feedback when you got them.
Thinking about "downgrading" myself from a Logitech 5.1 system to a 2.0 or 2.1 system with HiFi speakers and maybe a small amplifier.

OK, set em up today. They sound just great. Adjusted the sound slightly with Equalizer APO and now they sound just like I want them to sound. Only downside is that I can't even use them at 10% because they are waaaay too powerful for my neighbors to not call the cops on me Laughing Thx KC!

Mine will take a while to get here, probably in 2 weeks or so

Do you have those yourself?

If yes, how good are those stereo speakers in like shooters in regards of pinpointing enemies around you?

Might there special drivers or software to simulate surround sound on stereo speakers - if a game not already supports it natively?

Right? I was surprised too especially for the price Very Happy
I use 50% windows volume jus so I can have a bit more control with a volume knob.

A decent Kink.com video on Pornhub ought to do it. Razz

EDIT: Well I guess just gaming works really, online in particular what with how people use voice chat these days and all. Very Happy
(Course that would *really* get the neighbors wondering why you're forcing some 10 year old to talk dirty about your mom or whatever the popular thing is these days..mute function for the win!)
