Computer Speakers?

M Audio BX5a

x2. Listen to mine every day at work.

Mackies can be good, although more expensive than the M Audios. What are those white speakers that Tyll is ga-ga over? He shows his new desktop amp setup with them all the time. They sound damn good.

The speakers Tyll uses with his desktop setup are Amphion Ions.

Amphion Ions, which I quickly found out are a touch expensive for computer speakers. At least for me they were.

edit - Mike beat me to it, but didn't provide a link so I chimed in anyway.

They are not cheap but they sound good. If I was buying a pair of monitors for my office I would pick up a pair of System-Audio SA505 ($599 retail) which can be found from time to time on Audiogon for $300. Neither these or the Amphions are powered speakers. They both require an amp.

The Philips system that I mentioned way back when appear to be no longer sold by Costco. Alas. And me never having picked up a pair. Alas.

Has anyone heard the Legacy Audio Studio or Von Schweikert VR1?

Guys.. i have no idea what speaker specs mean.. but are these any good for computers? They're not too expensive either.. .. or are they worth it compared to other things like the A5? http://www.behringer.com/B3031A/index.cfm?lang=eng

Hey Dusty, could you specify which model was it on the CostCo link you posted before?
