The Vanatoo Transparent Zeros are quite nice. Stands would be recommended to get them up off the desk.
Best Desktop Speakers under $500
Will be used mostly for listening to music/podcasts while I work. I will not be getting a sub right now since I'm in an apartment so that is something to keep in mind.
I enjoy nice aesthetics so if they look nice or come in a color other than black, that is a plus for me.

I have the Vanatoo Transparent Zeros and for the price I don't think you can do much better. The smaller Audioengine and Kanto powered speakers look nice but they really need a sub to help with the lower frequencies. The Vanatoo's really have an advantage with the passive bass radiators. Highly recommend. |
Logitech makes some good speakers for computers check out this link https://www.logitech.com/en-us/products/speakers/z906-surround-sound-system.980-000467.html enjoy |
Find a used pair of Adam A5. Active. Ribbon tweeters. Better than all of the others I have had (lots of computer speakers, home audio monitors {Polk, Dynaudio, ...}, Monsoon planars, Audioengine, Swan M200 various versions). Each of the above did good things. The Adam A5's do a lot of good things. The bass is very good and the ribbon tweeters are oh so good in a nearfield desktop system. They can also play loud enough to fill a small room if you are not at your desk. Use an external DAC if this is a computer based system |
