The Altec Lansing Expressionists FX2020 speakers. Yes there are several models in the Expressionists range including Expressionists Ultra, Expressionists Plus, Expressionists Classic and the original Expressionists FX2020 themselves.
I have the Expressionists Plus and they're okay though nowhere near as good as the Expressionists Ultra were for a 2.1 channel speaker system. The Expressionists FX2020 is the best value for money 2.0 channel desktop speaker system I've heard but I'm only repeating myself now <smile>.
