Just wanted to see what kind of speakers people prefer to plug into their beloved macs. Am running Promedia's 2.1 with a new SWS subwoofer(yeah I'm a bass junkie and hoping to add a few more of em') Any idea when Apple's gonna support multiple channels?
 
I've got Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 speakers, too. They're not much to look at, but damn do they sound great. :)
 
I got a bose freespace 6 business music system...
as unusual as it sounds to use with a computer it sounds great... 25w RMS x 4
they were givin it away for nothin at work a few years back :D
(for the people who know the system i'm talking about, i have it with the rectangle version black speakers, not the in-roof speakers)
 
At home, we use Bose media mate speakers for our iMac. At work its Apple pro speakers and eMac built in speakers.

Needless to say the bose speakers sound worlds better.
 
M-Audio Sonica USB soundcard routed to a JVC MX-GT90 stereo... you want bass? How about 180 watts per channel of it? :)

Klipsch ProMedia 2.1's - simply stunning. The stereo system in our studio has become redundant since the Klipsch arrived.

Monsoon Planar Media 9's a 2.1 system that kicks all forms. They look awesome and sound great.
 
Built in speakers on my iMac DV with an iSub...Bose Media Mates on my iBook at school. I want to get a cable or a wireless way to run my iMacs sound output to my 500W RCA home theatre system.
 
3 or so years ago I bought a set of Bose Acoustimass Media speakers - great stuff, solid, and still going great.

got mah stereo hooked up, through an audio-to-minijack setup
 
at school i hook up to my stereo (extremely loud and clear)

when i go home, i hook back up to actual computer speakers - yamaha ystms50. got them for just under $100 about 2 years ago on amazon and would recomend them to most anyone.
 
- at college in the US: hehe, built-in speakers on my tiBook

- at home in münster/germany: CRT iMac hooked up to my yamaha stereo system (we have concrete walls... BOOM-BOOM!!!)
 
Right now, just a JVC bookshelf system attached to my PB.

Once I get a desktop I'm grabbing some Kilpsches. I had the original 4.1s on my PC and they were amazing.
 
i have creature speakers and a 6 set aiwa stero both connected to my powermac, parents dont like it to much though, house tends to shake from time to time.

Yamaha YST speakers with a sub-woofer. Pretty darn loud. You should hear this thing when I play Medal of Honor. I should play Wagner in the background with it. :D
 
Logitech Z-560's 4.1. these things sound suprizingly good for being $180 and only having one driver in the satellites. only complaint i have is that you cant get the bass all the way down on the hardware bass control... not suprizing since the sub has 188watts continuous power [400w cont. power total].:eek: :rolleyes:
 
Yea i have the same ones as Steradian
they are truly great, very crisp and they still work from 1993 very nice with my pb.

A set of the Bose computer cubes with sub. Sounds really nice in that diffuse Bose everywhere sound sort of way, but much better than some of the other computer specific set-ups I've listened to. But music on the computer just isn't my thing when there are really nice sound systems to listen to. Now, the paradigm studio 40s downstairs, sitting in the stereo field at just the right place - that's what the ears crave.
