Getting speakers will just get you disliked for being loud and obnoxious about being loud.

Seriously, what is wrong with you people.

You are a one year member, have an avatar and you cannot seem to adhere to one of the simplest rules/pet peeves.

Use the search feature; or in the case use your eyes.

This thread is literally on the same page; and is identical (minus the MacBook part.) Someone is looking for dorm speakers, one hundred and fifty dollar price range.

I know I sound very pissy, but in all honesty, this is just the most classic example of flooding boards.

With that said, if you have any specific question, I'd be happy to use my knowledge after owning 10 pairs of computer speakers and eight pairs of monitors - however, copying and pasting doesn't accomplish much.

With that said:
1. Swan M10(/12) - best, if you can find them
2. Creative Gigaworks T40 - small
3. M-Audio (lower end monitors; however, the price jumps to the $250 range, at that point some actual monitors would make more sense)

Bose and Logitech aren't bad options, you can just do better for the money (most the time.)

Obviously, if you want a audiophile set-up, change the thread tag and we can go from there.

What is your definition of a reasonable price?

I have a few laptop only friends that use these:

I use headphones with my laptop Shure SE210's.

A couple of choices to think about, hope I helped a little.

What didn't you find? The other thread got pretty indepth, and it seems like it would fit your needs:

I am preparing to head off to college in the next week and I am looking to find a good set of speakers to complement my new macbook pro. My budget is $150. But, I would be a lot happier if I didn't have to spend that much as long as quality and functionality wouldn't be hindered too much.

First and foremost, I want these speakers to work well for a dorm a party. This means that a good bass would be nice. Also, there should be some consideration towards the design of the speakers (without compromising durability). In addition, I was hoping to have the option of connecting an iPod to the speakers (allowing friends to bring over their music too!).

I know i come off as being really nit-picky, but I wanted to put all my thoughts out there, so you guys could better advise me! So, any thoughts?

It would be a lot of help, to those like me that would like to help, if you asked more questions

i have a logitech R-20 and its a 2.1 system (2 speakers 1 bass) and it works perfectly with my macbook.
just a tip since the macbook only has a headphone port its best to get "powered speakers" meaning the ones that you have to plug into a power source. or one that allows volume conrol on the speakers. for those tend to be powered via the cord. so yea any "powered speakers" are the best choice for macbooks because of the headphone port.
