That's way too much for me right now, and probably a whole lot
more than I actually need (both the number of speakers and probably
the quality, too). 400 EUR is the **hard** upper limit for me.

Thanks for pointing that out, that would have been my next question.

The Alesis speakers mentioned by Arnold do already hit my budget hard,
but I think 333 EUR is still pretty cheap for them, considering the
exclusively positive reviews I found.
So maybe I'll go for them, although I'm still unsure because an external
amp seems more flexible to me.
In any case, I'd still like to collect some more opinions.

Do I really need an amp? Doesn't the signal level of the sound card suffice?
Consider that I don't want to crank up the volume substantially.
