Default Speakers & Headphones:Your opinions please

Hi all,

Now i was gonna buy some Logitech X-230 Speakers but ive changed my mind.

I would actualy prefer to get cheaper speakers so i can buy some decent headphones because i have Headphones in them most of the time anyway so there wouldnt realy be any point in me having speakers that have a sub-woofer like the Logitech X-230 Speakers have.

Like i said before im not realy bothred about a sub now but if they have one anyway thats ok.

So what you think about these speakers?


1)ADVENT ADE-210F - 2.1 FLAT PANEL PC SPEAKER SYSTEM

2)LOGITECH X-140 PC SPEAKERS
http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/sto...&category_oid=

3)CREATIVE SBS260 - PC SPEAKERS
http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/sto...&category_oid=

So please give me your views on those speakers,I dont realy want to spend more than £20 on speakers (Yes im tight )

Also these headphones any good?

Sony MDRXD200 Hi-Fi Headphones

Thanks all i appreciate your help

I would go with the Logitechs, just because of how reliable they are and their great customer service... you're not really going to notice a difference in sound quality at the price range, though... same with the headphones. Just buy from a reliable brand.

Hi,

Yeah i know there quite cheap but thats all i can afford at the moment.

But i was leaning more towards the Logitechs anyway because i hear alot of people say they are good,Even the cheap ones.

Okay so do you think the earphones are good?

I have to recommend Sennheisers for headphones, i have the EH350s, which are pro monitoring phones, and they RULE! they are spendy, but you can the the EH150s, better than those Sonys, for about 20 bucks, or 10 pounds.

Those headphone look pretty good, they look as if they'd block out a lot of out-side noise.

I'd go with the Logitech, they look the best, probably sound the best and have a great reputation

Even the x-230's are not that expensive.

I would get these headphones I have them and they have really good sound quality and have some bass to them to and they are really comfortable I have them on for hours at a time and they don't become uncomfortable. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1138084389772
