What couputer speakers should I buy? - GoFuckYourself.com

I had a Klipsch setup in my office for a few years now and it has amazing sound. However, as of this morning when I power up the receiver, the damned thing surges and kills power in my office. It seems like it goes to max level, pops the sub and it croaks.

Unfortunately, I think this means I need a new setup. What is recommended out there? Are there any quality wireless setups available for a PC?

Don't get suckered into buying crap plastic computer speakers. Spend a little time on Ebay and you can find a bad ass set up for low dollars.

I have a classic Nakamichi receiver and NHT speakers and sub set up that I bought for like $200. (The receiver was sold as broken - had a bad output cap which I fixed and it works like a dream.)

So I have 200 watts of 80's hifi sexiness and style:

For music I have a Samson 150 watt amp and a pair of Yorkville studio monitors.

For gaming I have a 7.1 creative setup from a few years ago. This is pretty close to the same setup...
