Hi Guys, Currently using a cheapo sensonic 2.0 speaker. The speaker is good at making noise (no clarity, no bass) so I am planning to upgrade to a decent 2.1 speaker. I use it mostly to watch movie and playing various songs through itunes. (not much of R&B tho) my room is very small. I think its around 10x6 (dorm room). Could you guys recommend me a decent speaker at the price of RM120 and below? the cheaper the better. my budget is very tight now. sigh. Thanks you.

hey all ppls here, i nid some comments i planning to purchase Z5500 or Aego M this coming saturday. i am more toward a music and movie kaki not much of a gaming freak. btw can i know which is more recommended? just dun talk about the 5.1 and 2.1 just all about audio quality, range, accuracy, sound stage.
from what i know tat Aego M is really nice audio quality, sharp and clean with very much top end accuracy and sound stage for a PC speaker.but with only sufficient bass for music but not movie. Z5500 wise, i know is have monstrous bass but according to some review site the sound quality is not worth a penny. is tat true? especially in music.
sifu and user of both speaker here pls giv me some comment

if you like music then get AEGO M instead. there is one review here few years back, this guy own both AEGO M and Z5500 (2.1 mode) and he claims AEGO M far surpasses Z5500 in sound quality. well of course, Z5500 is a gaming speaker.
