We look at three entry-level systems to see if a quality 5.1 speaker listening experience can be had for less than $100."</i><br /><br />Tom's Hardware have written an interesting comparative article on the cheaper 5.1 speaker sets out-there from Altec, Creative and Logitech. Surprisingly to me, the Logitech seems to be the best bang for the buck but it isn't "perfect" though.
