    I have been looking for speakers for a notebook I will be buying soon. I found these that I like:

    http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=4&subcategory=27&product=10733&nav=1

    I like the fact that they have an aux input right on the remote plus you can hook it up to your tv etc with ease. How do you guys like it? Does any other speakers have aux input on the remote or speaker for easy access?

    Also, on the features link on the page it says theres a bass adjustment; anyone know if thats on the remote or on the subwoofer?

    I personally like logitech speakers but I like the futuristic look of these.

    Thanks

    I already found that the ligitech Z4 has them. BTW my price range is no more than $100USD. I only want 2 speakers and a subwoofer. On the remote I want aux input, subwoofer control, volume, headphone jack.

    Of course. Most current laptops have a SPDIF (digital) output.
