Speaker drivers to replace computer speakers

[Gregory Toomey]

Can someone suggest a speaker driver, with good dynamic range, suitable for
an AKAI 1980s vintage amp.
Budget $60-$80 for 2 drivers that can be directly connected, don't want to
do a crossover.

I want to replace a set of cheap computer speakers, and get better sound
than speakers found in computer shops.

**They may be difficult to obtain (and you don't mention driver size, BTW),
but one of the best cheap drivers is made by Aura. It is a twin cone, 100mm
driver. What makes it very different to most others, is it's use of
Neodymium magnets. I replaced my Sony TV set speaker with one and picked up
significant improvements in bass response, efficiency, HF performance and
smoothness. I will see if I can still lay my hands on some. They were about
$12.00 each.
