What is your definition of good desktop speakers and price? In the UK we can get this sort of thing:

Which are great desktop speakers at £80GBP

Nothing like this in your neck of the woods?

It should be pointed out that these are active speakers with a builtin USB DAC. There are a variety of these things out there at this price range atm and they sound surprisingly good. Recommended.

(There's a decent chance all 3 are the same product rebranded tbh.)
