ATP3 and the Logitech X230 seem to be the favorites for the 2.5-3k budget but both of them have been taken out of production. Considering this, can someone suggest similar value for money speakers(other than Creative Inspire).
Altec Lansing VS4121 seems to be a good bet. Does somebody have an update on its current retail price(in mumbai)?. Also, how about Logitech X240 and Creative Itrigue 3000.
Only suggest 2.1 speakers and 3k is as far as i can go.
-TIA

VS4121 is the best option.

X230's sound is not that loud. I tested in and didn't like it that much.

no-offense guyz .. but Dont you think VS3251 is better?.. if its 3.3K as my friend told me .. its better to buy that instead. it better value for money. Total Power Output = 70 Watts RMS. also these are wall mountable...
