    Default Small active monitors

    I'm currently away for a few months and so looking for some decent small active speakers as a temp measure, any suggestions - also not too expensive say under 100 bucks? I'll be using it along with an S2 if that helps.

    Thanks!

    Is this for bedroom use? Any set of 2.1 PC speakers will more than do the job.

    Yea simple bedroom use - thought maybe some recommendation, but probably asking too much and just keep it simple.

    Neusonik had a sub-100 studio monitors range (3 & 5 models) that had quite good reviews but they don't seem to be available anywhere, too bad.

    That looks like a good shout and probably what I'm looking for!

    Mackie monitors are great and seriously undervalued.

    Presonus has some small monitors in the $130 range that might be worth looking into as well. I wound up choosing those over the Mackies for my desktop (but I don't think you can go wrong with either).
