Agreed with both Mtbrider and Marco. The ELS-3 is a pretty good speaker, but the Soliloquy Sat-5 is better (and closeout priced from Walter (Underwoodwally)) . The x-ls from av123.com is cheaper and is said to be THE value speaker by many who have heard them (I haven't).
If you want really cheap, check out the Insignia from Best Buy:

It's on sale for $39.99/pr and I've seen many comments saying it sound pretty good. If you want a cool project, check out the Insignia upgrade project at:

You could have a really decent speaker for about $100 plus a bit of sweat!
Enjoy,
