In "Curious George: Quality Sound"

Also: If you're mostly listening to music, and are therefore willing to give up some bass in exchange for mids and highs, these look awesome.

No offense to uhmyang, but I suspect one would get better sound from these similarly priced Klipsch Promedia speakers - which I don't own, but I've known people who swear by them, and the basic setup seems superior to those of the Altec system (6 1" drivers? Why?). Personally, what I do is connect the output of my laptop to my compact JVC system, which actually sounds surprisingly good for the price (at least IMHO). On preview:

Does anyone have experience with using a USB connection to an amp? How is the sound quality? Drawbacks?
I own a Xitel USB HiFi Link. The sound is actually quite good - but I don't use really use it any more (in fact, I'd be willing to sell it pretty cheap - if anyone here wants it). For some reason, I don't think it played very nicely with my Fujitsu laptop - in that I used to have WMP, or even Flash w/ sound, sometimes crash my computer HARD. I discountinued use of the HiFi link, and did some other cleanup steps, and the problem hasn't recurred. I'm not at all sure , However, that the Xitel was at fault (and I haven't heard of other people having this problem). Anyway, I find that the built-in sound from my laptop is actually pretty good.
