Does it matter what kind you buy? Like, can I just go buy any speaker I want and it will work, or do I need to buy a certain type of speakers? Is it just like a mouse where it will work on any type?
if the speakers are powered by your computer than you are limited by your power supply. all you need to do is put applicable drivers for you speakers
Pretty much man. Altec Lansing are pretty big name computer speakers, Bose has some out, Creative has some, Phillips has some. It's just personal preference to be honest, I've got a set of creative 2.1 speakers w/ subwoofer and they sound incredible. I think they sound better than the few altec lansing sets I 've had too. Hope this helps out, good luck.
Yes but check for the loudness u need
