Can anyone recommend a set of 2.1 speakers?

as the title suggests, i'm looking to get a set of nice 2.1 speakers for my laptop. they'll be used mostly for music. i was looking at getting the Logitech z-2300. really seems like the best option in my price range  (<$150) but i figured i'd see if any of you have any recommendations.

logitech is a great choice. i loved my 5.1 when i had it years ago.

if you wanted to build something yourself , i would suggest this project. simple crossover and very easy build. measurements are in CM but you can convert it to inches and round up or down. http://coolcat.dk/bjoern/TABAQ_TL_for_TB.pdf

throw these speakers in there - http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=264-809

a little t-amp http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=300-380 and youre set.

just add a small sub amp and subwoofer and youre golden. ive been running mine for over a year and love it. while it doesnt get crazy loud like some people like , at a normal/loud listening level , it sounds better than any prebuilt system you can buy for the money.

i don't think i want to build them myself, but your first link doesn't work so i can't quite get the whole concept...
