Hi.

The Cambridge Soundworks Gigaworks speakers attached to my PC are on the way out, after about 12 years of use. The question is, what to replace them with? My budget is £150 - £200. I'm looking for another Dolby 2.0 or 2.1 system.

Thanks

I'm hamkering after the Bose Companion 3, pricey but do sound good and the little volume/mute puck is sooo tactil. Around £200 linky

I had a listen to the Bose yesterday. I wasn't very impressed to be honest. They didn't seem very sensitive and the bass was slightly over-driven.

Any other suggestions? I don't mind buying the speakers and sub separately, if necessary.

There's the Harmon Sound sticks - haven't heard them for a while but I recall they sounded pretty good, also the Acoustic Energy Aego M's seem fairly well regarded.......
