The Imac 27"- Great bit of kit - now which speakers?

[Budice]

What I am curious to know is do you use external speakers. If so do they do justice to your Imac. Did you pay an arm and a leg for them and was it justified?
All comments/recommendations appreciated.

I kind of wish I had studio monitors, but I have the HK Sound Sticks as well.
They are LOUD and sound very good, hardly any distortion at high volumes.

I wanted to maximize SPACE on my desk too, so the Sticks work nicely.

I would recommend the logitech Z-2300. A great alternative to the soundsticks which I also like.

These are great speakers for the money. I used them right up until I upgraded to Yamaha HS80m's.
