    more portable probably won't sound nearly as good. A good set of desktop satellites with a decent subwoofer (like Elron's Altec set) is a good way to go. Just put the subwoofer on the floor, and the satellites don't take up too much room on your desk.

    I am actually not looking for the best sound quality per say, I basically just want to be able to hear my movies from across a medium sized room...

    My setup is I have my lappie hooked up to a external TV but the sound has to play through the laptop and the little speakers on the laptop just arent enough to hear very well when sitting on the other side of the room.

    Again its not a HUGE room, im probally 10 feet from the laptop, so I just need something that will pump some higher volume, quality isnt the biggest issue as for me its like telling a difference between 1080p and 1080i....

    What about these...
