So I just picked up a brand-new iMac, and I am very interested in purchasing some speakers that aesthetically match the beautiful new design. Does anybody know of any speakers that complement and mesh well with the look and feel?
What's with THX?
I've been eying these for awhile. They're called AudioEngine A2's

They also come in black but unfortunately they are only 2.0's
Bose speakers are the top notch, but very expensive. They are the best I've ever heard.
Otherwise, JBL produce also very good stuff, and Logitech looks crappy but has good sound.
I bought myself a Dared MP5 tube amp with USB input together with good old JBL speakers made for tube amps, the sound is breathtaking.
Absolutely incorrect. They might sound great for the size but they are way too aggressively sounding. Bose is very good in one thing: marketing. That's where it ends.
I respectfully disagree. Bose is very good at getting lots of sound out of very small speakers.
Everyone hates on Bose, because it's true that you can get speakers that are as good for less money, and it's true that you can get better speakers for the same amount of money. However, in both those scenarios, the speakers will be bigger and uglier.
I would think Mac fans wouldn't have such animosity towards Bose. After all, both are expensive products of the market they are in. However, Bose just works. It's a very simple set-it-and-forget-it system, in a very small form factor.
