Begging for all the Lemmy Audiophiles recommendations on computer speakers! (sh.itjust.works)

I haven’t bought computer speaker setup in well over a decade, but getting back into gaming, any suggestions?

I ask, due to the fact it looks like the old brands are all over the place in quality these days, like the Logitech G560 Speaker System, whose required software is messy. https://a.co/d/00gehZRS

Which is really making me wish I kept up to date, as Amazons current “recommendations system” can’t be trusted for quality with so many being cheapo speakers and SEO ruining result searches.

Thanks in advance, as I feel like I’ve awaken in a speaker dystopia. 😧

Your budget will play a role. I 100% agree with people saying don't get computer speakers if you're looking for quality, but the catch is they need to be powered.

I did a bunch of research and got the below on sale after a few reccos and agonizing over specs. For reference, previously I have used spreadsheets to tune a room to a flat frequency response with my own custom crossover designs, so... I'm picky.

I've been happy with my choice. And since they are fairly portable, they are versatile. Also used them with a Midi keyboard and a portable projector.
