Computer Speaker help

Locust76

I'm currently thinking of getting a new set of computer speakers, mostly due to the fact that:

A) The current setup I have is 7.1 and I really only have space for a 5.1 setup

and

My iPhone interferes with the amplifier in the subwoofer on my current set like crazy, so I'd like to get a set of speakers that are shielded against that crap.

The computer store I work at has Logitech X-540 speaker sets that looked pretty good. My question to you all is, how do you think they stack up? I love the sound quality that comes from my current set of Creative Inspire T7700 speakers and X-Fi card, so can I expect similar quality from these speakers? Also, are they shielded against such interference, or do I have to go up the price scale to get that? Problem with that is that I don't need/can't use big 400 watt setups because I live in an apartment.

There are very few products out there that are specifically shielded for GSM 'buzzing'. Most shielded speakers are magnetically shielded, so as not to interfere with computer equipment and CRT monitors. Altec Lansing makes an iPhone speaker dock that IS shielded for GSM, but it's one of the few I've seen, and it doesn't attach to your PC. You may have a tough time finding speakers that are designed to be immune to the GSM frequencies.

Someone somewhere had to have invented a set of speakers that are protected against GSM buzz, though. It just seems like to common of a problem to just say "oh well, deal with it" and move on.

In the meantime, I've wrapped my subwoofer with tin foil, which seems to have deadened the effects of the GSM signal on it somewhat, but not completely. Can anyone else give me any other info as to how I may go about fixing the problem, through modifications or new equipment?
