Here's a head-up on what seems to be a decent deal on a pair of (black) passive studio monitors. Because tehre are geared for nearfield (close to speaker) listening, and are magnetically shielded, they are well suited for computer speaker use. I know nothing about them and have not heard them, but they seem to my casual glance to be a decent speakers for a quite decent price.

Go to Accessories4less.com, search for "FOS-FA51.0/PR" or "FOS-FA61.0/PR". They are $180 and $200/pair, respectively. The FA5 seems to be the Fosgate analogs of the "Hafler M5 Two-Way Closefield Monitors", and the FA6 is supposedly similar, with a larger woofer. Obviosly, for $20 extra, I'd go for the larger woofer. Both companies are under the same parent organization.

Reviews of their Hafler studio counterparts are ...

These are hosted on the hafler website, so it would be worthwhile to go look for altrnate reviews if you are interested.

What makes the deal hot is this promotion for %20 off all speakers that I got in my e-mail today...


p.s. I apologize in advance for their hardcore website suckage

p.p.s. You also might want to toss on a few of their decent deals on interconnects while you're paying for shipping (~$20). Of particular note are $5 3' RCA ("ATS-SAC3"), $7 subwoofer cables (like "ATS-GACT20S" but there are several in the 17-20' range), $9 3' component video cables ("IXOS-1531-100"), and a $5 coax digital cable ("REC-ADC501").
