Has anyone got any good suggestions for some speakers for my iBook? Could I hook up a pair of JBL creatures or wouldn't they fit?

I'm sure that the JBL Creature setup would work fine.

For me, I use the audio out on my iBook to connect the computer to an auxiliary input on my receiver, which powers my Axiom (www.axiomaudio.com) setup. Sounds wonderful. I think this is the best way to get high quality sound out of the iBook.

JBL speakers would work fine. They have a white version as well.

Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

They just connect to the audio minijack (aka headphone jack) on the iBook. It's a standard connector.
