    Creative i-Trigue 5600 or Creative GigaWorks Pro Gamer G500 5.1

    Any idea which is the best speaker out of the two, main use will be listening to music and watching movies. Gaming is last on my list.

    Spec and link at scan below. Any other suggestion welcomed

    The Gigaworks definately, THX certified and better generally better all round - maybe its down to the Twin Flared DynaPorts™, but who knows? The GigaWorks models are seen as the premium Creative speakers.

    If you can get hold of anything Klipsch they will definately hit the spot for music and movies, with performance less orientated around gaming.

    Personally, I use Logitech Z-5500s.

    Also consider a soundcard upgrade if using onboard or something along the age of a SoundBlaster Live! That also helps

    Thanks for your advise, the Z-5500 is a bit beyond my budget. Is there any klipsch you can recommend for around £120.00? .
