Post by: guar on December 01, 2002, 01:23:20 PM
Just came back from circuit city and they had these new speakers for gameing.Here is a link to view them.http://www.altecmm.com/product_details.asp?pID=XA3021&sID=7  I was just wondering if anyone has tried them yet. They ought to be better than the tv\'s built in speakers.

Altecs are nice but I wouldn\'t pay $100 for a 40 watt 3 piece set.
