The sub-woofer developed in the 1960's is one of the most miss understood parts of gaming. You may have the best mice and keyboard, but without a good sound system your (to quote Xfire) "Gaming Rig" will never be complete. Today gaming is not about who has the most ram or the most bandwidth, today gaming is about total immersion. In real life when there is an explosion there is a "shock wave" and that coupled with the sound makes for the a good explosion. In Call Of Duty (CoD) we use a sub-woofer to make the "shock wave," and by shock wave we mean that we can physically feel the sound through the ground and keyboard of a laptop. This helps to us to reach the point of total immersion. The kind of set up that we recommend is a Sony VAIO sub-woofer, plugged into the regular audio port on the back of the sub-woofer. We have a set of decent computer speakers that we got from amazon, and in the second headphone port on our laptops we have a set of Sony portable speakers. We do not need the second set of speakers, but its carried with our systems and they were not being used for anything else. The links below are to some sub-woofers that are not too expensive and will do the job of amplifying bass well.
