[kwlug-disc] (hardware) PC speaker brand

[Ron Singh]

I've always been terribly dissapointed with "basic" PC speakers.

Aeons back, perhaps in 2012/2013, I got a couple of sets of this --
https://ca.creative.com/p/speakers/gigaworks-t40-series-ii

Very happy with them for use at my home offices, in one case, tethered to a
laptop via a dock and the other, on a bigly yellowed some beige
tower(anti-theft measure).
I like the fact that it has  separate bass/treble/volume controls, very
heavy base(stand) and looks gnarly.

Amazingly, it's still on offer!
Super-spendy now, back in the day, I am pretty sure I only paid $65-$75.

I see this:

As long as it does not smell and controls are good, seems like a deal at 50
Cdn pesos.
