Yes, Klipsch is the highest priced and best quality computer speakers I've heard about. I own some (of course, just the 2.1's)

How they actually stand against the top notch Creative by Cambridge , and with some harman Kardon HK595 ( i believe ) ?

And how much did you pay for it ? i am considering those

I got them for my birthday a few years ago. But they run for about $100 now. Used to be more expensive. I recommend getting them, they are amazing.

Sorry if i didn't answer your question. I can't say if they're better than a 5 piece creative labs since I haven't heard those speakers. However, my guess would be that the Klipsch are better. If you want to see the price of the Klipsch speakers go to www.klipsch.com and you can browse their products. Just click "buy now" to see the price of the product that you're looking at.

Boston Acustics makes some $500-600 computer systems. And i think you can get the top of the line Klipsch's to 500 or so, also Bose make some for that range too.

2 birds with one stone.

I have a set of Klipsch Promedia 4.1, great speakers. Got it for CAD$200 but normally they're at least double that. They just came out with the Promedia Ultra 5.1, you can probably take a look at that.

One of the best computer speakers to be produced were the Video Logic Sirocco Pro Multimedia package, which cost £600, that is probably over $1000US. They fucking rock! Unfortunately, they stopped production last year

ok, $899US

I forgot which Klipsch it was, but the speakers look damn good. But I don't think they can beat the quality of a good home stero system.
I don't know of any companies that start with a T so I can't help you there.
