What speakers would you travel with?

It's always amazed me that while we're willing to spend a fortune to get outstanding sound from our home systems, we're left to use our laptop or Ipod speaker as our sound system on the road. Quite a step down in sound quality.

I'm figuring on using my laptop and USB DAC as a source. Not ideal but space and weight considerations have to figure in at some point.

Outside of headphones (I like the mobility and freedom from headgear which speakers afford), what speakers would you or do you travel with when you leave home? We're talking speakers which would fit in hand carried luggage here.

Audioengine A2. I have the A5's on my desktop at home with a Benchmark Dac1 and a pair of A2's on my desktop at work. Phenomenol speakers.., both of them, check out all the great reviews at www.audioengineusa.com as well as the great review on Stereophile.

Oh, one more thing! Phenomenal is spelled incorrectly, but more importantly it has an ipod jack and an ipod charger on top so you don't even need your Laptop if you want to travel lighter. I forgot to mention that I also have a pair of A5's in my bedroom hooked up to a Logitech Duet Squeezebox, great combo also.
