As the title says, I'm interested in new speakers, only I don't really want a subwoofer since my desk is pretty cramped as is. I was wondering if there are any high-quality 2.0 speakers that anyone can recommend? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

My floor is a mess of wires already, but yeah, I guess that's an option.

Subwoofer should go on the floor, Im wondering who actually places them next to their speakers... What a waste.

M-Audio BX5a. They're actually reference monitors but they will sound great.

If they are on sale, yes. Otherwise i would just go to a local best buy and get $50 ones, those would be good enough for a while. Or some 80$ ones, depends on how much money you got laying around for em.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

I just bought these today for $130 on amazon, so idk if that's considered 'on sale', but they definitely have some of the best reviews for a 2.1 system.
I hate optimists.

It really depends on what you planning to use the speaker for.
For gaming and movies, a surround sound system is better (Logitech Z5500 stands out). Z2300 is a decent 2.1 set for gaming as well.

However, a common flaw on Logitech system is that they exaggerate the base way way too much. For music with vocals that often will have extended mid, the Logitech speakers are not the best for your money.

Have a look at Audio Engine A5

True 2.0 channel sound. You can buy a sub later if you want to.

I'm planning to use them mostly for music and SC. I listen to mainly classical, some folk and jazz, and a fair amount of alternative rock.

You wouldn't want a logitech set. As I've said, Logitech have exaggerated bass, weak mid and terrible high. They are still okay for rap and heavy metal as the base drowns out everything.

Go after a set of audio engine A5 or other reference monitors would be much better.

Bumping this because I finally got those Audio Engine A5 speakers, and man they are amazing! My desk is pretty small and they are HUGE, lol.. but the sound is unbelievable! A subwoofer isn't even necessary because the bass is already perfect. Thanks for recommending them.
