The Canadian speaker company Axion Audio has released their first set of computer speakers. While they claim to be introducing the “first luxury hi-hi computer speaker system” I think the Soundruid Audio Fury 2.1 system beat them to that. Nevertheless, these are some nice looking speakers…

Prices for the pair of desktop speakers start at $349 USD for the basic colors. If you fork over some extra cash you can get some absolutely gorgeous looking real wood finishes. The speakers feature 3″ aluminum cone woofers, and 1″ titanium dome tweeters and are powered by a 55W per channel amp (which is included, but is external to the speakers). With mini-monitors like this, you’ll probably want to also get the optional subwoofer which features dual 6.5″ woofers loaded isobarically which will set you back another $179 USD. For those not familiar with the jargon, by isobarically loading the woofers, they should be able to make some decent bass without taking up a lot of space.
