Spike suppression arrestor for PC speakers?

[R2-D2]

I notice that when I turn on my wimpy 1 watt USB powered speakers for my PC, there will be a somewhat loud spike noise which may damage them. This also happens when I boot up the computer (I never turn off the speakers).
I was curious to find out if some sort of surge or spike arrestor would help eliminate this spike noise. I think I need to connect a varistor inline between the pos. and neg. lines, but not sure if that would work.

It would be cheaper and probably better just to use the money to buy better computer speakers.
