There's a new class of performance desktop speakers out there, and if you're an audiophile (or audio-nut like me), you'll want them for your own.

The catchy-named GigaWorks T40 are tall, handsome speakers featuring a three-driver design for great sounding audio. Like the GigaWorks T20 before them, the T40s use a Midrange-Tweeter-Midrange (MTM) driver configuration that improves the overall audio balance with deeper and richer bass effects, giving you music that sounds fuller, warmer in tone and closer to the original recording, whether you're listening to music or a movie.

The T40s boast high quality components, such as the dual woven glass fiber cone driver, the cloth dome tweeters, BasXPort technology, convenient control and entertainment extension.

Available from Creative for $149.
