I will throw in my opinion also. I have three good sets of speakers  
on my Macs and support several other Macs with good speakers. I have  
found the JBL Creatures to be the best for under $150....In fact,  
they can usually be had for $70. I actually do not have the Creatures  
but have recommended them to folk who's Macs (and one Wintel) I  
support. I do have the Apple/Harmon Kardon w/iSub on a MDD that I  
like a lot. But I found the Creature to be more to my taste. I also  
have Rogers' Sound Lab and some Kiplish speakers......All of these  
are very nice but I think the Creature is the best buy under $150.
