So yea, just something that is better then my current speakers...and not expensive, im in the process of building a House!

I personally don't like the idea of using Computer speakers (ie, logitech X-240, etc)

EDIT, also...can connect either through 3.5mm-> RCA or Opcital/Coax from my X-Plosion...would prolly prefer optical/coax...
If you just want 2.0 or 2.1 then DON'T go optical or coax as this implies a dolby processor. You've already got one in your machine so use it to do the processing and send the sound out via analog to a set of powered speakers.

From Jaycar, something like these;
