found a really strange descrption of the SBS on Creative's page

The Creative SBS 2.1 370 offers startling performance, and even rivals many 2.1 speaker systems at the same price.

obviously it is supposed to do that, since it too is a 2.1 speaker set (or is Creative trying to tell us that the fact that SBS manages to rival other 2.1 speaker sets in the same prce range is just an accident :rolleyes:)

Anyway, if you have a 1500 budget, then u mite as well use the maximum amount
4 around 1200-1300 u will get the Creative Inspire 2.1
it has got higher RMS ratin than d SBS and also sounds good [@ dat price]

Best and 1.5K are oxymorons in this techworld! :) Of course creative speakers are good enough. I bought a creative 5.1 for 4200 arnd 2 years back... I wonder that should also be relatively less. Considering that, dont you think 1.5k for a 2.1 system is relatively expensive?

True, whoever said best and 1.5k..was more like within that range :)
Then again, price is only objective in case of getting a good speaker system..but since I'm limited in that budget, let's hear your suggestions!
