hmm both altec and klipsch are decent speakers, they price are similar too

the mx5051 is THX certified btw (though, it doesnt really matter IMO)

I really need your opinion guys,

btw I don't really like music with bass which can make you get a heart attack =)
I prefer classic or jazz

from what I heard, altec make decent speakers for those music genre

but I'm not an expert, so opinions are really appreciated

thanks =)

I have not listen to either speaker but the spec shows that Klipsch GMX-A 2.1 is better.

Try to audition them both and if they sound the same then the Klipsch GMX-A 2.1 is better, with less distortion.

Check the warranty, one that gives you better service is a plus.

Speakers are very subjective and you really need to listen to them especially when they are of the same quality. If you're getting 2.1 speakers, you can adjust the bass with the subs volume control. It's always best when auditioning speakers to take a CD with you that will include various instruments to see how the they handle high, middle, and low level sounds
