Alain,
Before any of us can recommend a suitable system - you need to tell us what the requirements are.
Live or home use?
Large or small size?
Is weight/size a problem?
Budget?
I use a pair of Mackie 450's for medium to large parties, and I have a small set of Roland self powered speakers on my studio desk at home with a 50W Samson subwoofer. That adds just the right ammnt of "punch" to the internal speakers. I also use it as a monitor for my 9kpro during recording.
Let us know your plans for these speakers, and we can suggest the right thing for the job.

Go to the Yamaha website and check out the YSTMS50 system. I've been selling this system with almost all my keyboards when people need good sound and power with no distortion and be the size of a computer speaker system. You get two satallite speakers and one subwoofer. I've not had anyone disapointed with this system when considering the sound, the size and mostly the price! It is an 80 watt system and has a list price of $149.00 and you can buy it for less. Also check the Yamaha MSP5 powered monitors which sell for around $450.00 for the pair. These are 80 watt each bi-amped speakers and are also quite small.

George......here in the UK the Yam YSTMS50 was also available in white at only £80 but YAM have stopped its distribution.......the Black version is still available but I am told is only available in the Option Pack (9Kpro) and not sold separately.....and yes you are right it sounds very good for the money.
