That 100,- euro's (120,- dollars)

If you know really good speakers for under 200,- you may post them and
I'll look in to it, but most likely won't buy them.

In any case speakers I've looked in to are.

Creative Gigaworks T20. They apparently have great sound for their price,
but the control dails suck monkey balls, because they are so hard to turn.
That is for 2 reason. They are smooth and thus hard to grip, and they offer
a lot of resistance.

Creative I-Trigue 3000. They have wonderful controls and you can turn of
the sub woofer. They sounded well in the store, but considering all the
noise around them I can't really judge them. They are better then my
current set. but they look too fancy to be any good for their price.

Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 2.0 System, they apparently sound really good but
have some fundamental design flaws, and they break easily.

Logitech x-230, I had these for a while but the subwoofer was overbearing
and it annoyed my parent downstairs. They are very easily annoyed I'm
afraid, thats why I like the fact the I-trigue's sub can be turned off.


Logitech Z-2300 , I know Cnet loves them.

But I don't know much else about them plus they are expensive

The Logitech Z-2300s are expensive because they produce incredible sound. Very crisp bass and great range. They're easily the best speakers on the list in terms of quality. Just be warned that the sub woofer is very large, so if you're short on room, you may want a different set.

If you want a cheaper alternative, the Logitech Z-4s are very nice as well. Klipsch speakers are also high quality, but you're right, the design of the ones you listed is pretty poor. I've never had a good experience with Creative speakers, so I wouldn't recommend those.
 
I'm still using a Sound Blaster Live! audio card and some ancient Altec Lansing speakers and they've held up all this time. I won't upgrade until they completely crap out on me. Audio still sounds superb. These things hail back from before 2000. They're almost half as old as I am.
