Alternate ways to output audio from computer

[Bellyheart]

I fucked my speaker jack on my laptop and cannot stand how tweeted out it is. I listen to mainly bass heavy music and this is killing me. Songs sound completely different with speakers and I'm trying to get back on that tip. I opened it up and it's nothing I can fix, I fucked the terminal and could get it fixed or I could just get something else? I think there are some usb speakers but I've only seen quiet ones. My speakers that were hooked up to the laptop were loud!

Suggestions?

I had the same problem, this is just a usb audio jack basically.
You can also record into it with halfway decent audio quality.

Another option...pricier, but better sound quality overall.

Does anything like that exist with speakers included? I know it's not necessary but if there's a package I'm all about it...like sluts...

Just search for usb speakers and you'll find plenty of options.

There are various self-powered speakers available, good, bad, and in-between...it comes down to how anal/snotty you want to be about your sound. I freely admit to be an audio snob (my main desktop computer's sound system will rival a multi-thousand dollar stand-alone audio system...serious), and so I'm not a big fan of inexpensive self-powered speakers. Go thru sites like Best Buy and Amazon and stuff and you'll get a good idea of what's available at different price points.
