Hey guys, I built a computer from scratch for the first time a few weeks ago, the only thing I left out was speakers and a sound card (ordered an X Fi sound card now).
For speakers I want something decent, or hopefully very good. These were my choices:

OR
http://www.newegg.com/Product/CustratingReview.asp?item=N82E16836119101
Which of these two would you recommend? I like the idea of 5.1, but I prefer quality (a clearer, less boomy bass if that makes any sense). Would the 2.1 suit me well? I do like to blast my music when no one is around, or if I have friends over, and I like to watch movies with the volume up.
OR

That 5.1 klipsch is 350 dollars, which is very expensive for me, and I am not really an audiophile but I do like listening to music and watching movies, and I would like to have some nice quality. Also, the coolness factor is through the roof, even though there would be limited opportunities to actually blast it (neighbors, and perhaps the health of my inner ear, it seems like it would be pretty loud). I look at it like buying some turbo sports car even though you arent allowed to drive over 150 miles per hour most of the time, still nice to look at and KNOW that you could if you wanted to.
What would you guys suggest?
