Hence the thread title, I'm getting NEW CRAP SPEAKERS to replace the EVEN CRAPPIER ones I don't use very much because I have headdies.

Which is more worth it?

Logitech R10 2.0 $22AUD
or

Soloman WS-602 2.1 $25AUD

Personally I like the second ones, but I'd like to know what you think is worth paying for.

EDIT: added links so you'll maybe have a better perspective

I like logitech,  i dont know anything about those second speakers. Check out some online reviews, but a $3 difference will probly just come down to your preference.

Ive always been a fan of logitech products, simply because they always work well for me, so yeah

Soloman, you seem to be getting a better deal for what their is. However there may not be support for programs like vista etc...
Logitech are good and have good support.

To conclude it, if you want an adventure go for the solomans if your going for reliabilty then go for the logitech.

Also I'd reccomend looking for reviews on the net on both of them

I don't have Vista and my future doesn't hold anything window-shaped for now. At the moment it keeps saying "XP".

The Soloman speakers seem pretty kewl in the end. Alright, off to the nearby computer store on Saturday...I've always wanted a subwoofer (always been 2.0 or headdies...)

To the Google...

EDIT: Couldn't find reviews on Soloman speakers (but I just KNOW they're gonna be good...) or (this surprised me a fair amount) the Logitech speakers.

Now that is funny.

I would go for the Logitech.. but the soloman ones seem good as well.

If you have the space to put the subwoofer, then take Soloman for sure... comparing the specs, they ARE better speakers by far.

They are speakers...

No shit sherlock.
But the drivers they supply may not work.

it isn't a sound card, they are speakers...

Speakers may come with windows drivers, but those are just to "optimize" (read: distort) the sound. You don't need them at all and in almost all cases (for normal desktop speakers) they don't do anything which standard basic windows drivers for a sound card can't do already.

Moreover, the sound card drivers are way more important.
