Stereo.  My current stereo speakers suffered 3 years of college life, two kids,
and total life of...um...11 years.  They're due.  They were cheap, radio shack,
paper cone 2-way to begin with (8" woofer, 2" tweeter, no mid).  They were fine
in college, but now they're sub-par...

I have two sets of Altec Lansing speakers.  One is on Karin's computer, one is
on the O2.  AL-295s maybe?  Dunno, they have 2 satelite speakers (right channel
has all the controls) and a subwoofer.  Frickin loud, is what they are.  I got
the first set for free, and the second set I paid close to $100 for.  Very
nice.
