Computer Speakers Under $200?

Hi everyone, I'm pretty new to this forum and am trying to build the best 2.1 setup for my computer possible. Currently I was planning to use a pair of Cambridge Soundworks Newton M50's and a Cambridge Soundworks Basscube 851, which I could get for a total of around $175. Should I switch out any of those items or just what are your guys' general thoughts? I'll take anything, even flames :D

Hi all,

I first used Roland monitors and then went to M-Audio monitors for my speakers. While I'm not a basshead, the dearth of significant bass started to really bother me over time. Overall though, if I were to have bought a 2.0 system, the A2's would have been the ones.

I've heard some positive reviews of the Swans M10's, but I don't think they're better than the setup I already mentioned.

The Swans were ~$300 IIRC and they have been out of production for years.

I have and enjoy the Swan M200 MkI (used $150), the MK II is $300 at Audio insider (link below). Looks to me like they list the M10, as well. John
