Hello all,

I am currently in the market for a new set of speakers to use in my dorm with my Macbook Pro. I (think) that I've narrowed it down to either the: Swans Diva M200, the Acoustic Energy Aego M, or (maybe) the M-Audio Audiophile AV40. To clarify-I am looking for great sound quality for music (primarily classical, but with some jazz and a little bit of rock (Dave Matthews Band etc). Nothing hard/bassy/metal. I do <u>not</u> want hugely thumping bass. Also, I need to be able to plug in the speakers directly into my MBP--so this rules out any reciever/amp setups. I think I've got it narrowed down to the models listed above, but if you have other suggestions at/under 200 USD, it'd be welcome (but for the record, I do not want the Klipsch Promedias or the Altec FX6021 etc etc...I am not looking for the most power for my $). Thanks in advance!
