I'm looking for some 2.0 speakers at 160€ and under. I'm mainly buying them for music since I have headphones for gaming. Thanks in advance.
 
The definition of 'good' speakers is very subjective. Your likely get many answers and be no wiser which ones are for you, its a item you really need try before you buy
 


For that price you are looking at getting a 2.1 setup with a small sub. It will sound a whole lot better then just 2 speakers. Look into the Z623 speakers. If you really want only 2 speakers, I would suggest getting bookshelf speakers and a small amp. That will sound much better then any stock 2.0 computer speakers.
 
+1 to getting an amplifier plus bookshelf speakers.
You cant go wrong with them.

Don't be in a hurry. Up your budget. And you can get a terrific pair. Computer speakers will always be average at best!
I wont be surprised if this is not your first pair of computer speakers that you got. With computer speakers, you will be back shopping.

Amplifier Electronics wont last long. If you get a decade or so, consider yourself lucky. Bookshelves on the other hand, can easily last for decades. I am not kidding!!!

However, with a budget as less as 200 euros, amp + bookshelves will be a distant dream.
Powered bookshelves are a much better choice then the computer speakers.
Here is one - Swans M200MKIII.

if the op upped the budget they could possibly get something like the wharfdale diamond 10.0's and a smaller amplifier. the wharfdales are rather efficient speakers so are a bit more forgiving then some other bookshelves when pairing with small amps.

if the budget is static, the op could always go with some cheaper speakers instead. the pioneer bs22's for instance are a good budget level choice.
 


Distant dream? hardly I bought my setup for under$30. Bought the really nice 8ohm magnavox 24inch (worth $50 apiece used) speakers from goodwill for a few dollars a piece and a good mini amp on amazon.
