Hey Tumble,

The Edirol MA-15D are a well built little 2.0 system from Roland. They have good clean highs but are lacking in the bass frequencies. You may want to go to the MA-20D in that line in order to get more bass out of your system. Some other brand options for you could be some of the actual 2.1 computer speaker systems out there like the Logitech Z2300 ($120 US) or the Edifier S2.1D ($90 - $100). Both of these have a fuller frequency range (because of the included subwoofer) and sound decent for a computer setup. These both have corded remotes as well. Hope this helps.
