BOOMING BASS

Computer speakers built into your monitor can be a space-saving convenience, but the sound quality often leaves quite a bit to be desired. The small speakers produce a tinny sound with little bass. The newest multimedia displays from Nokia (800 296-6542) take built-in sound to new lows by building a subwoofer into the display's tilt-and-swivel base. The $999 Multigraph 447Xav can display up to 1,600 by 1,200 pixels on its Sony Trinitron screen. The otherwise similar $1,499 Multigraph 447K (shown) adds a camera for videoconferencing.
