@OP: Altec Lansing VS4121 for 3k is a good choice.

If you can push your budget a little bit around 3.6k then Creative T6160 5.1 or T6100 5.1 is available.

IMO T6100 is a decent 5.1 with average build quality & warranty.

Vs 4121 is not available anymore. My brother wanted to purchase one recently and couldn't find one in all pune and mumbai. Neither a single online shop had stock and nor they could arrange one. Even i didn't find one in my city.

So he had to settle for vs4621 instead. He was tasamono a member of this forum.

VS 4121 has good reviews everywhere..but 4621 does not have that much good reviews..

@d3p5kor - there is not enough room for 5.1 system..space is limited..

Online stores are overpriced for this speakers... If possible get from any other city....
They are a gr8 2.1s its worth it...

Inspire 2500 was a gr8 product of creative....

I totally agree with choice of EDIFIER C2 @ 3500 INR [Price in Dec 2010 may get it for less ] in mumbai definately better than AL VS 4121 ......
