Ok Neal ... I am going to take your advice on this one. I have been looking for new speakers for the flex ... not happy with the Logitech 2.1 system I have. I found these same BA MM220 speakers in Canada at Tiger Direct for CAD$35 ... we can almost never get similar deals in Canada as in the USA. Hopefully they are in stock and I can test them this weekend. I was going to get the bose 2.0 system, but they are very deep for my desk. TNX Kevin

I have the Bose computer speakers and they work really well, no RFI, etc. You also might consider the set of Boston Acoustic speakers that Audio Advisors has on sale right now for 30 bucks, they look like they might be a great buy.
