I've never used any AppleDesign speakers (though I hope to someday!).
However, over the years since learning to do audio editing stuff, I've learned that I need some pretty decent speakers to hear what's going on.
To that end, I used a pair of M-Audio Studiophile AV40s, and they were nice, until I was listening to them one day and saw some smoke wafting out the back (eek! 8-o ), accompanied by a burning smell (eek again!!).
They were disposed of ( :'( ), and I've hobbled along with some super cheap headphones. Until now, that is.
I borrowed some old monitor speakers (Roland DS-90) which sound pretty good, but one of the tweeters blew out when apparently that speakers' amplifier/PSU was having some trouble after being un powered for so long (it made all sorts of horrible popping, crackling, thumping sounds (with a little of a sizzle sound (fortunately, nothing was actually "sizzling")). Aside from the tweeter, it seems to be working fine now.
Anyway, This is a bit off topic, but not exactly ;D .
