Im using Edifier R2000DB for TV speakers, and it crush alot of those multi-hundreds soundbar/sub. 1 annoying thing about soundbar is sound localization and soundstage, you can tell the sound coming from underneath the tv and not projecting from the tv

Another edifier fan lol

Bought a cheapo one $20, use a few months and it died.
Now bought a Creative Stage Air V2 $50+, hopefully it will last a lot longer than unbranded one.
Creative quality shld be good

Are they good?

Pls state the cost of it also.

My edifier bookshelf speaker just died after 6 yrs or so lol

Bose Companion 50. $600
Like the satellite speakers that are compact in size. Sound quality is not the best, still it is good enough for me.
Also like the All-in-one control pod - featuring volume control single-touch mute button, headphone jack and auxiliary input

Just when I thought my PC speakers uplorried today too, reversed the connection for the aux cable and it's working again.

Been using my Swanspeakers M50W since 10+ years ago and still going strong!

ELAC are passive speaker meaning it is like this.

There's no way to connect the speaker directly to PC without a amp.
It depend what your usage is if for gaming or movies, 2.1 will be better.
2.0 is more for clarity and mids suitable for music and recording.

Example will be Edifier R1280DBs which I used to own before.
However as it lack sub which is why I change to Logitech Z407.
Example in games/movies, the "boom" effect only 2.1 can create such effect.

So depend what type of usage you are looking at.
Home theater will be on another level but it depends what type of amp
you buy.

As no matter how good the speaker is like ELAC, you must pair with a decent amp.
