Those look like something from the hitchiker's guide to the galaxy. :D

JBL's are usually pretty nice sounding too.

i might look into those since my desk/computer speakers are standard issue. i've got this rocking set of old timey infinity book shelf speakers and some even older JBL's that along with my 4,000 LB dinosaur Denon amp are the shizz....but my apt buliding is old (yet very cool) and the sound is just too much through the walls and floor to be fair to the other tenants.

$42? I spent about $100 for my sony POS speakers with a subwoofer. Of course that was probably about 1995 or so.

Yep . . . I couldn't believe they were that cheap either.
