I just bought studio monitors, the Adam audio a7x. They run balanced and
unbalanced xlr and rca out, and sound really good on lossless stuff. It
depends what you want, I wanted to hear a flat frequency response, not
any sort of pre-designed emphasis of the lows or highs. I don't have
experience with any of those systems, I do have a bose companion 5
system at university and have been pretty impressed with it, but again,
it's not a flat freq response system, it's a consumer speaker and damn
good at what it does. I hope that helps a little? Always listen before
you buy, you know that, but sometimes it bears repeating especially when
you see a good price online. Also, test it with different genres of
music or the most often listened-to genre that you know you'll be
playing on the speakers.

I have no experience with those, but I have a pair of Harmon Karden
Sound Sticks. I think they're up to version 3 now. They are a 2.1
system and sound great and can handle playing quite loudly. I think
they're around $150 U.S.

Hi folks
Looking for some high quality desktop speakers to use for listening
to music.
Let me state that movie and game sounds are completely irrelevant to
me. What I am looking for is sound quality for listening to lossless
files with desktop speakers.
I have found 3 recommendations and I was wondering if anyone have
any experience with one or more of them.
The speakers are
M-Audio Studiophile AV 40
Creative gigaworks t40 and
B&W mm1
Yes I realize that they are kind of pricy. The B&W system is by far
the most expensive but I like the idea of a built-in digital to audio
converter.
