I have some logitech z313's that ive had for about 7 years now. ive been looking to upgrade for about a year now, but i dont know anything about audio so i dont even know what to look for.i was looking at either the Edifier R1280T's or the Logitech Z623's.

I've had the Bose Companion 2.1 for 11 years, I got them as a bday present. I had replaced the satellite speakers with the slightly newer models cause one coil blew.
Talk shit on Bose all you want, the subwoofer is powerful as hell, I have it turned down to a quarter power, and its nice. Half and its a bit too much for an apartment, and full is full blown nigger bass.
Aside from dedicated bookshelf speakers, I have never heard better sounding PC speakers.
Joshua Fisher
get a pair of active studio speakers like mackie cr4/cr3 or M-Audio AV42 or Yamaha HS series if you have the budget
Matthew Thomas
>Aside from dedicated bookshelf speakers, I have never heard better sounding PC speakers. Because you have never listened to any speakers worth shit. Making loud noises doesn't mean something sounds good, Tyrone.
Nathaniel Diaz
As far as shitty retard computer speakers go these are fine, but I'm in the market for some real speakers.
Jordan Sullivan
>unironically suggesting m'Audio
William Carter
try the Swan Speakers - M50W, they come in the same 2.1 pc speakers format and shit on everything else
John Lewis
it's better than any bose or logitech product for sure
Jason Nelson
Im not about spending more than $300 on a pair of speakers, and I dont have the room for large book shelf.
William Torres
Show me dedicated PC speakers that are better than the Bose ones.
Grayson Myers
Nubert A100 - A300 Way better than these shitty bose
Logan Anderson
any studio monitor
Justin Nelson
Any 2.0 set of edifiers. Swan m200. Beyond that, set of studio monitors. Besides this isn't even hard, because I would rather not have speakers at all than use bose crap.
Evan Torres
studio monitors are not dedicated PC speakers.
Aaron Rivera
The NuPro ARE dedicated Active PC speakers my friend
Jaxson Howard
dedicated pc speaker is a marketing term
Ayden Evans
And I gave you 2 examples of non studio monitor active, dedicated PC speakers that don't sound like crap, so go fuck yourself moron. Plus there is nothing that says you can't use studio monitors as dedicated PC speakers.
Camden Sanders
I'm talking about shit like in OPs picture.
I can buy any bookshelf speakers I want, and they will shit on the Bose. But the Bose are the best of the going to BestBuy to buy whatever shit they have on the floor.
Cooper Mitchell
why would you buy shit like in OP's picture when you can buy something better for the same price?
Ethan Powell
You sound like a god damn retard. You want what a company markets to you as "PC speakers" since you are stupid and don't comprehend superior quality over marketing buzzwords.
Owen Perez
I have some old logitechs and want to upgrade to Yamaha studio monitors
Nathaniel Ortiz
I am simply making a statement. Bose speakers, aka the simple 2 satellite speaker and a woofer is the typical PC speakers that are marked towards PC users.
Comparing individually sold bookshelf speakers is not fair.
If I wanted better speakers, I would go in that directions.
But if I want speakers that take up little space for my PC, its mostly going to be shit like pic related. And out of all that shit, the Bose are king.
My friend was selling his NS series Yamaha or whatever, they are like $250 each. Good deal, but they are too big for my desk. I dont have room. So I have no choice other than keeping the Bose.
Grayson Rodriguez
jbl 308 they sound great for their price tag.
Jack Rivera
you know the 2 small speakers + subwoofer is also a gimmick, right? those cheap small woofers are good for making muffled rumbly noise but in no way do they produce accurate sound
you get better bass response with 2 good speakers. good/decent subwoofers cost 300-500 and up by themselves. not something to get on a budget.
Jonathan Nguyen
There u go. Plug and Play. nearly the same price. Very small and decent sound. Is it that hard to be not mainsteam?
Julian Long
also something like the mackie cr3 for example don't take much space at all
Luis Scott
refurbished altec lansing speakers from 1998
Mason Hill
>something better for the same price
like what? OP here, honest question
Ryan Walker
studio monitors. i'm guessing you are looking at least 100-150 dollar stuff if you are upgrading. you can get entry level monitors for that price which will destroy any "pc speakers" (marketing term to sell gimmicky shit for more than it's worth) for the same price.
Carson Barnes
You know that each right?
Anthony Williams
Speakers in OP pic are $50 actually, you are not getting monitors for $50.
Like nothing, because all $50 speakers are complete shit. Decent speakers start at $100 edifiers.
Easton Peterson
Yeah, im in the $150 range. But what are some good stdio monitors for that price range?
William Ward
You need to double that. Set of jbl lsr 305 is $250. Add $100 for audio interface, $20 for cables and $50 for stands.
Hunter Hernandez
Recommend me a good pair of speakers under $500 preferably, and if they happen to have a used market in the US.
Logan Taylor
Alesis Elevate 5 MKII Mackie CR3 or CR4
if you are european there is a sale on Thomann
no need for interface, these both have standard RCA inputs, also stands are optional (these are not huge), rca to 3.5mm cables can be found for 5 bucks
pair of Yamaha HS7
Parker Green
>pair of Yamaha HS7 How would I hook these up to a regular sound card?
Xavier Russell
get a cheap audio interface
Jaxson Foster
such as?
Joshua Smith
Scarlet 2i2.
Samuel Bennett
focusrite 2i4 + 2x xlr cable
Henry Johnson
these but if you want cheaper then BEHRINGER U-PHORIA UMC202HD is on sale on amazon. it seems to have jack outputs.
Adam Collins
U-Phoria UMC22 is also on sale and is even cheaper
William Jenkins
>what kind of speakers do you have Sup Forums? Logitech X-540 (~7-8 yr old)
>are you looking to upgrade? why? Nope, ain't broken.
>I'm talking about shit like in OPs picture They can be use with anything, there is no such thing as dedicated PC speakers. A plug is a plug, shit connect, shit werks you dum dum
