Yeah, the days of building decent computer speakers seem to be fading away. I'm fine with it, as it encourages people who care about sound quality to look into real audio products, not plastic boxes with silly overpowered and badly tuned subwoofers.
One of my friends has a pair of Logitech Z-5500's that he got a long time ago, and he told me he loved them at the time, but he's been thinking about getting some monitors to replace them for music listening. I went over and listened to them and I don' t blame him. The treble is a bit recessed and not very good, and the subwoofer is just stupidly loud when set to the middle.
I just got the CEntrance MasterClass 2504 monitors that were on here recently and I've been very happy with them. I might eventually add a subwoofer for when I use them for movies/gaming. Maybe I'll get lucky and get it tuned well enough to work for music (90% of subwoofer setups I've heard haven't been great for music, as the majority of subwoofers out there are tuned more for movies). They dip down to 50 Hz, which isn't bad, but it would be nice to be able to hit around 40 Hz (the low E string on a bass is about 42 Hz).
