Depends what you want to do...
All PC speakers suck in my opinion... at least if you want to make music. And for me just listening to stuff... but I'm picky.
I'd get a cheap pair of 20$ speakers, go look at www.tomshardware.com for some good reviews and save up for a decent pair of Triangles or something

sanguine, all pc speakers do NOT suck.
you do not NEED home theater speakers that need to fill a 15x15foot room with sound.
we are talking about sitting at a computer desk
where clarity and close proximity are important...

as for the GXP's, I didn't like those because of how they look all "XTREME", not my thing

Klipsch are probably my favourite brand of speakers... their audiophile stuff in particular rocks bells. If you lack the willpower to save up for that, Cambridge Soundworks stuff is good for the price.

I've done that before- works fine... PC into a mixer into an amp is great too.

Don't buy PC-speakers. Save up for some real gear instead.

The Kilpsch Roque! Best Hifi buy you can make in a pc speaker and will blow away most folk's home theater set-ups. I have had a set of the Promedia 4.1's for almost 5 years and they still sound tight after years of abuse. Good for music and games though they cannot compare to my Dahlquist's.

being that I can't seem to figure out how to plug it into my stereo, I'm not into the idea of buying a whole new stereo as well, so I'm going to go with PC speakers for now. thanks for the advice though

No way, go for a Creative 5.1 setup. They are the best for sound...
