Very small Integrated and speakers used


I was looking for a pair of affordable powered speakers for my dorm room, and i was thinking that probably i'll be better served with any integrated and passive speakers produced in the last decades.
Now the problem is that i don't have a lot of space on my desk, so i was wondering what are the smallest good performing integrated amps and speakers that can be bought easily in the used market.
thanks in advance

I stand by my previous powered monitors suggestion, but I did come very close to buying the below, which looks an intriguing desktop amp option. Nuforce also sells bundles with speakers.

I'm not sure you should give up on powered speakers run off your computer. Definitely good bang for buck, in a small space. I've had swans in my office for some time, and they sound pretty decent, and a friend enjoys his Audioengines. Set up couldn't be simpler, and could easily be done for less than 400.
