home theater speakers can be shitty compared to pc speakers depending on price and how you use it

Let say for a same given budget of RM500-600, what would be a better choice?
Usage for movies and gaming on my 42" plasma.

with that budget (600) you are strongly encouraged to use PC speaker instead of home theater. altec lansing MX5021 or Logitech Z2300 or Edifier S530 may be suggested, please check it in your nearest stores.

Thanks for ur suggestions.

Do those models come with remote? It is a must as it will served as my 'home theater'.

Actually what make those PC speakers better than home theater?

with the same price, see that most HT include dvd player and some other unessential features (e.g. design). so u decide, what makes it sound better than no frills PC speaker that ultimately serves as a speaker, not a dvd-player and speaker combo. Edifier S530, DA5000Pro and Altec MX5021 have wireless infrared remote. both has its strength and weaknesses.

what are you looking for? great bass? wide soundstage? clear voices? movies can be anything, everyone is not looking at the same objectives.

I'm looking for clearer voices, not really a fan of bass (but of course it have to be acceptable level).

What else models i can look into if my budget lower than RM500? Maybe 300-500.
