    Speakers...

    Well i currently have 5.1 speaker setup(creative sbs 560 or something) and now i cant find a place for my speakers(got a new desk) and since they are not wireless and cables to short i cant put them behind me. Would it be worth going to 2.1 since all i do is play games and listen to music? would i be able to get good quality speakers for about £30-£40? or should i just stick to my current set?

    Could you use cable extenders like these below on your current speakers?
