Is micro the brand? If so I've not heard of that 1 before. Found some Altec Lansing Expressionists speakers on eBay, they're different from what I had but they'll probably do for the moment whilst I do some further research on the topic of computer speakers, I'll let the list know what I think

Ah I see, I'm sure I had some of those at some stage of the game and yep, they weren't bad. I didn't see any mention of the brand when I was reviewing the Best Computer Speakers page I spoke of earlier but I wouldn't at all be surprised if the brand was mentioned and I missed it, so much

I have a pair of the Soundstix 2's and I love them. I set the volume fairly high on the speaker and then control the actual listening level from volume controls on my keyboard. They're nicely balances, feel solid, look good and sound great at low and high volumes. I've read that the 3rd

Now that's the sort of information I'm interested in, I've ordered a pair of Soundsticks 2, they're easily available on eBay. I understand that the Soundsticks have touch volume controls on the speakers so that explains why you control the volume from the computer itself, nothing wrong with

If you're looking for a nice portable speaker, I'd say go for the Desaia Beat Box. Rechargeable battery that lasts for ages, bluetooth compatible with iOS devices, with previous/next and play/pause buttons, and it has a 3.5MM input on it as well so it can also be used with devices that don't
