Sound card & speakers for travelling

[admin_exported]

I'm going to be working away from home for 3 months with the work laptop. Can anyone recommend some light laptop speakers? I'll be using for a combination of listening to music and watching DVD's. Should I also get a better soundcard for the laptop? It's a very basic business Dell. Willing to spend £100-£150.

I use these Logitech USB speakers for occasional listening from my laptop

They are way under budget and are eminently portable. I have used them on holiday to watch DVDs as well and they are a big step up from the laptops own speakers. Though after three months you will appreciate getting back to actual hifi. They have good clarity, but can't do heavy bass and start to buzz if driven loud. I doubt that doing anything to the soundcard would make them sound better.
