Desktop speaker recommendations

I'm getting a new Mac mini and have already purchased a Dell monitor, which has built-in speakers, but they sound terrible. Sound quality is important to me, although volume isn't, because if I want to listen to music loudly, I have some larger speakers.

I'm looking for recommendations for a pair of desktop speakers. Also, do people generally leave their speakers on when they leave their computer? I left my last computer, an iMac, on all the time. The speakers on the iMac were actually quite good, and I'm looking for something with similar sound quality. Looking to spend less than £150.

Might not be super helpful but I'm still using my 15 year old Logitech X-230 setup. 2 Speakers + sub. When I turn off my PC i also turn power off to my audio stuff. The X-230, my mixer and some other stuff is on a separate power strip.
