There's a ton of 2.1 speaker options around 40-70k range. Beyond 70k the 5.1 speakers become common. This looks like a nice set of 2.1 speakers for W68,000

I got these:

Creative Inspire T3130 2.1 Speakers

On gmarket for ~55,000w.

For the price, they are pretty damn good. The Bass is pretty loud and I'm satisfied with it. As a point of reference, back home I owned Klipsch Promedia 2.1 computer speakers. I'm not saying these T3130's are as good as the Klipsch Promedia. What I am saying, that for 55,000w, these speakers have sound/bass that surpass what you would expect.

My only gripe is that there is no headphone jack on the speaker or the volume control. That is just nitpicking though.

I recommend these speakers.

Here is a review:

I got a 2.1 Bono Boss set about 1.5 years ago for 40,000. Haven't hit the upper range of its output yet due to neighbor concideration. Very nice cheap speakers. There available on gmarket for about 35,000 these days :

I've been happy with the sound from my Creative Inspire T10 2.0 speakers......60,000 in Linko's.

(no sub-woofer, which was intentional because I tend to turn things up a bit when I've had a few orange juices and a sub-woofer would disturb the neighbors!!)

But the build quality is not perfect. The volume knob has developed some static noise and I had to replace the 3.5mm connection cable after the one supplied failed.

So, not a 5-star recommendation, but the actual sound, the most important thing, is very good. Good balance of bass, mid and treble and decent grunt.
