Hi,
I am looking to buy some new speakers for my PC as my current 10 year old speakers are starting to die! Primarily they will be used for music but very occasionally games and movies. Basically I know nothing about audio really other than I would like it to sound as good as possible for the money! I don't really want to spend more than £200. I like decent bass and crisp clear audio. To save me writing out specs, the PC I have is here. I have windows 7 (if that helps!) 64 bit.
The main questions I have are:
- Do I need a sound card? If so, I would be happy to not include this in my budget as long as I would be able to use the speakers without one until I can buy on
- Do I need a receiver/amp (and what is one?), again, I would be happy to buy this later!
- Finally, which speakers! There are so many and I'm confused which to get!
The speakers I currently have in mind are the Corsair SP2500 but as it is a large important expense I wanted to get some advice!
Thanks in advance,
Thomas
