I think the current imac speakers are fine they have some base and sound real crisp. but my macbook lacks any base at all but like the imac is clear thats what i love about the current mac speakers.

Holy crap I just got a pair of the AudioEngines, THEY ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t recommend these enough, unbelievable sound! After you get them through the break-in period that all speakers have to go through these things just freaking ROCK, I am so stoked!

the audioengines are great. f you want something smaller, try these http://www.edifier-audio.co.uk/proddata.php?partno=E5000 suprisingly loud, down to about 80hz.

What about a good headset for a softphone on the macbooks?

You should have stopped after the first suggestion because the others don’t even compare to the 5 series.

I have a set of Audioengines in my living room hooked up to my TV for gaming, movies, and my ipod and I love them. Be sure to follow the manual and go through with the break-in period, they suggest 48 hours of continuous play but I think the full sound really developed after a couple weeks once the cones softened a bit.

All of their audio equipment is phenomenal really.

PS: If you like Michael Jackson check out this remix and play it LOUD on your AE5′s!

I am using the X-Minimax2 from XMI. These are really small and amazing portable speakers, which sound very well for their size.

You can find them at http://www.x-mini.com/.
