I just can't understand why somebody would want to put crummy, low-quality speakers inside of their monitor. It just seems like the strangest idea. They like having a monitor that vibrates?

Wouldn't it be better to have good speakers?

I use Nice Speakers or a Good Headset for most of my computing activities. When I am building, fixing/trouble shooting, updating, testing, etc., I use a monitor with built in speakers. Less hassle, less clutter at my computer work desk.

Just picked one of these up for $370 on Amazon, totally worth it.

The color accuracy out of the box is on point exactly as the review says.
I haven't even bothered trying to calibrate it yet, just adjust the brightness as needed.

No dead pixels, hardly any glow/bleed, just as perceivably snappy as my old TN.
Colors and viewing angles are great, contrast is meh, but that's IPS, and for the price I don't mind.

No issues w ghosting either so far on the #10 setting, but will probably need adjusting if you're tanking FPS.
