My small but rather nice sounding Yamaha speakers have finally passed on1 with an unpleasant death-rattle now acompanying any music played above about 60dB.

So, I am on the lookout for a new set – SoundSticks would be nice but maybe a little spendy, and I have a feeling they may be form over function. They will only be for the bedroom, so I don’t need a huge amount of power just good quality sound.

Any suggestions for ones to look at (or avoid like the plague) would be greatly appreciated.

I am also planning to get a slightly bigger set for the lounge sometime, along with an amp and some contraption to get music off the laptop wirelessly2.

1 They were on their way but I think it was The Prodigy’s ‘Razor’ at full bore (I left the iBook on full volume by mistake), that was the final nail.
2 Any suggestions for this would be good too.
