5.1 For 2k Hmmmm Reminds me of Grinnin_devil's Search For The Creative Series for This Budget.... :lol:
Anyways The Branded Is outta Question.....So Let some nalla Maal Lead the way.....So consider Intex,Techcom,Frontech and Adcom ur Partners......Check out for these Models At lamington road....Usually these speakers will Distort if the Volume Really pumps Up.....The Frontech 4800 watts was the last i saw for the cheapest 1,499 But That too sucked :evil:
Some Others are even not worth Mentioning :(

Yeah dont spend 2k on "nalla maal" cuz it aint worth it, invest 1k more and get the altec lansing atp3 2.1 speakers.

Come on Man Considering The Forum To Be Mostly Consisting of Indians I Dun Suppose It will Pose a Probs......Ok Ok If Someone Wants to Know Abt Its Meaning in The Sweet Angrezi Translation,Then It Would Be "Cheap" :wink:

Btw If Ya Add a Couple of Bucks more than a Creative 5200 Speakers can be obtained And Forget Altec's 5.1.....Or Else as Blade Suggested 2.1 Would Also Be a Good Buy i.e If U Aint a Big Fan Of DVD Movies And The Surround Effect Thingy 8)

:evil: hey Mr. Tom Cruise dont remind me of that 2k mishap!!!

nyway,get a GOOD quality 2.1 instead of CHEAP quality 5.1,
nd in nutshell dont go by the numbers,instead feel the speakers practically,check them out,dont have a look at their boxes,specs nd all,HEAR them to believe them...nd eventually BUY them!!!

:wink:

ATP3 costs 3.6k

Creative 4.1 costs 3.2k

In a budget of 2k one can only get 2 speaker system, not even 2.1. or if u go for intex in Rs. 1650 you can get 5.1 speakers!!!!
