I've recently made a thread about microphones, where people said I should get a surround sound headphone/mic combo. But I don't like things on my head, so headphones is a "NO". (I've ordered a stand-alone mic.)
Since I've started playing CS:S so much, and have noticed sound to be really important, I think that some 5.1 speakers might do me good. When I was looking for parts to buy for my computer I had no idea what kind of graphics card or speakers to buy, because before then my experience of PC games was VERY limited. I have since upgraded my graphics card, and I might do the same with my 2.1 speakers.
I'm, looking for some decent 5.1's at a fairly low price, but as of yet have no price range, as I always set prices too low. Whether of not I decide to go ahead and buy depends on the prices - I also might wait until my birthday in April.
It might also be worth noting that I probably won't be able to have the back speakers actually behind me. Instead they'll be in a semi-circle around my PC "space". My Dad has a Hi-Fi, which he says can use surround sound speakers that are put at the front. Are these type of speakers avaliable to buy for a PC?
