Need some quite small and not too terrible desktop speakers

Hi!

I've been listening to a lot of music on my Mac while at my desk at home. I never used to, but I guess the only constant really is change The speakers are pretty good for being 1 1/4", but... they are 1 1/4" so they are really terrible at reproducing almost any music. I've taken to deliberately making my commute a little longer so I can finish listening to (for example) some AFI song actually complete.

I need to get some speakers that don't drive me crazy by dint of their terrible sound. Any suggestions? Less than $100...? I'd be ok putting a small-ish subwoofer under the desk as well.

Thanks! generalist
