I'm using my 24" iMac as a TV in the bedroom, and I need more loudness from it. Any recommendations on speakers (~$200 range, or less)? It's mostly used to watch TV series streamed from Netflix, so I don't need a ridiculous system (already have that in the living room). Perhaps a soundbar?

Ugly, overpriced, underperforming.

I have the Creative Gigaworks T20s in my garage for music. Has EQ for the bass and treble. I listen with the volume at the halfway mark, so there's plenty of headroom. $100.

Complete disagreement.
You may be thinking of Bose.

I agree on the ugly, but they are not underperforming. They're excellent. I picked some others that fit more with the new iMac, but the sound is signifcantly worse. Only advantage is the external volumer control with headphone port.

The low-end Mac Pro is the most overpriced Mac since the IIvx
