    The Promedia 2.1's are definitely a solid choice.

    I like how you have sweet speakers, a nice keyboard, a phatty monitor, but you put it on a POS desk with exposed plumbing in the back... the geek version of ghetto fabulous

    Yeah, those Klipsch are bad a$$. I am still on the fence as to whether or not I will get the AL mx5021 or the Klipsch 2.1, but I am leaning more towards the Klipsch, as my local best buy has them for $150, with no waiting! Plus they are built a little better than the AL's... more solid and sturdy.

    Oh, and I agree with neueziel about the DEW, that's why I drink some every day. Breakfast of champions (as I down my dew with one hand and type with the other).

    I thought the Klipsch speaker covers were sonically transparent? - doubt that is the right term

    If I recall, the Logitech speakers sound alot better w/o their covers, but there is no discernable difference when the Klipsch speakers were heard with or without the covers.
