We've divided our speaker sets based on the composition. A 2.0 speaker set consists of two satellite speakers that reproduce the high and mid-high tones. Monitor and active speakers are also 2.0 speakers, but with an active amplifier. 2.0 speakers are almost always stereo and reproduce the same sound from both speakers. This makes these speakers especially suitable for listening to music. These speakers are often easy to connect to your computer via a 3.5mm audio connection.
