as the above title. pls continue your discussion here

Opps, had been refreshed!!??

yesterday i post here to ask what is the difference between Edifier s5.1 and s5.1m.

i juz knw tht the main difference is the size, RMS and of course the price. Besides these, is there any difference in sound quality?

The price difference is about RM100, so which one is more worthy to get?

Thx for your help.

in the v1 thread, xterminator already answered you.
1 of them already discontinued.

hehe, you can still refer to the closed thread for any info

Ooo, xterminator is answering my thread hio, i still thought he is answering other ppl. Ok ok, thx anyway.

any suggestion for 2.1 speaker with good SQ with budget around rm200~300 ??? actually i love the altec lansing mx5021 but the price...i'll feel pain with that amount -.-"

M3300 SQ is quite not bad for music at the price RM230. if u can increase a bit your budget then try to get S2.1M RM399, really good SQ. the tweeter look like better quality one

yeah,i agree...and i am one real happy M3300 user.i watched 300 with M3300,and wow...it can shake the floor and my chair if you pump it a little.way different from people saying that it got no power...

yea.. what i can say is M3300 provide "adequate" bass for movie also, but if u want more deep bass and good SQ also there is no way to get such thing at this price range. positioning is very significant too, i saw most of the shop put M3300 at the rack hence, the bass can't reflect from a solid surface. that's why ppl test over there then conclude M3300 not enough bass. subwoofer need to be put on the floor then only feel the bass

icic, someone recommanded me VS4121...so how was it compare with M3300 ???

i will take M3300 over VS4121 any time due to better satelite SQ and well controlled bass. but whether which one is nicer u should try it by yourself because my personal preference might different with your preference, same to others.

Ya...sorry...how much is your budjet? Last time S5.1 at Rm998....


If you feel M3300 was lack of bass then try M3400...my friebd using M3300 for gaming...normal to me...

this 4.1 that looks like 2.1

Very funny..haha, and not funny also...the reason you want 5.1 is surround if only two speaker, how you get that surround...if you want two speaker only then get a 2.1...Why waste money... But I saw a sony brand home theater...DAV-FXG9K...is a 5.1 but can put it in two speaker or put it to 4 speaker...price??? Rm2600...

A bit agree with you but I hear M3300 treble is not bad...If for my music totally out for me....R401 bass seems better but discountinue, so can't recommend to you...luckily I get one b4 discountinue...I hope he can choose which suits him...different people different taste....can't tell with words for good quality speaker, test it to believe it...hehe

Dude, do some research next time.
The first letter (e.g. 5.1) means the satellite units. The next one (e.g. 5.1) means the woofer unit.

Maybe this one put at the rear.
Then will have abit of surround effects.
If that's what he wanted
save space too

thks alot guys ^^

my bad my bad

what i meant was something like the philips HTS8100, or virtual surround speakers

owh..ok then i suggest this to you
ada106 with decoder or ada104 without decoder
the sound is superb..feels like in cinema
of forget to tell,it is altec lansing

u know any particular place in klang valley that sells this thing ?

Added on July 8, 2007, 3:10 ami dont think the ada106 is still being sold, coz i checked the alteclansing website there's no sign of it there. Even on other sites also it says no long available for sale.

Any other alternatives ? And if u can gimme the price and where can i find it.

Thanx

Hi everyone,

Currently I am looking for a speaker to use at my workplace (desk). I am leaning towards 2.0 speakers. Budget is rm250-rm300. Mainly using my speakers for listening to music (mp3) and radio (online). Gaming is out of the question since I am not supposed to play games when I work. Movies, well I might when I have no work. So bottomline 95% music.

I went to a shop at BJ Complex (Penang), the salesman quote me RM180 for M3300 cause its a display unit. Do you think its adviseable to buy 2.1 compare to 2.0? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Regards.

a good sounding 2.0 usually is bookshelf size speakers, but it usually advised to put it on speaker stand because of two reason: the side is bigger thus it might take space in your table and the woofer in 2.0 is responsible to produce the bass so u need to put on speaker stand for better sq and wider separation. a good 2.0 is never need a sub woofer to do the bass job, they even can have better bass than those with sub woofer.

but some ppl might not prefer on this way, they want something smaller side speaker. hence, satellite speaker come in. satellite speakers are small enough to fit in your table but it is too small, not able do the job in bass, so it need a sub woofer to assist in the bass part, this is the idea of 2.1.

so 2.1 u was eying on M3300, for 2.0 u can have a look on R1900T3. for me i always prefer 2.0 for music(except aego m ), 5.1 for movie.

yeah i dont think it's still on market..about 7 years old la this model..but i remember the distributor is leapfrog..
why you need 2.1 that is 5.1?
just buy altec lansing mx5021..thx certified



2.1 is suitable for bass..
but to use at office not suite la..

coz i dont want too many satellites and the wires are just going to add to my already messy room, and there's no place for me to put the rear speakers

one thing bout display/demo speakers,never ever ever buy them unless you really know the shop owner a lot.a demo speaker went through additional wear and tear than the rest.they are runnning 12 hours straight usually,running at a volume higher than usual hearing level and certain speakers which dont have protection or cover for the drivers and tweeter is also subjected to more damage.

conclusion,i highly advise NOT TO BUY DEMO SET.

Hi besaid,

Thanks for the advise. I am still seeking for the right speaker my own use at work...

Regards.

how about edifier c2. i plan to use it with my cheap tv since my cap ayam tv only can produce mono sound.

Hi... i want to know if there's any recommend for speakers pricing between Rm150-Rm200. Thx... i was looking into Sonic Gear BT3 and A5 but dunno if it is wise or not...

Go for BT3 for this range, or M3300 Edifier.

What about Sonic Gear Armageddon 5? Izit the same thing too?

Same...or try M2300...I think Bt3 were more better....

VS2320 is a good 2.0 speaker? Anyone heard it before?

Added on July 10, 2007, 11:03 pmhow about a xa2021 for xbox360??

well,if you want a speaker that wont disturb others while playing,maybe you should check out the MP230,its a highly portable mini speaker.



hmmm,personally i prefer Edifier S2.1M more than over Edifier C2,its not my liking .if remote is a must,maybe can try Edifier M3310,but i prefer Edifier M3400 hooked with the TV.much more easier to work around with its RCA input.

2nd thing,if you are using it mostly with astro,go for direct connection instead of going through the TV,its much more better to me.



xbox 360?check out if your cable support up to 5.1 channel or not.if its not,consider changing it to the 5.1 cable and get a R501 MK2 for surround sound gaming and Halo series will never be the same again,if its only 2.1 and you dont plan to change,try the speakers that are more towards powerful bass.any of the below is great improvement from the normal TV speaker.

cheap -->expensive
Edifier M3400,Edifier S2.1M,Altec MX5021

currently using m1310 for my xbox360, but my pc using LCD speaker which sucks alot.. but i don plan to put so many money on getting another speaker. I dunno wan get a 2.0 for pc or not and leave the m1310 for xbox360.. Or get another 2.1 for my xbox360, not enuf budget for 5.1 le.. i put rm150 like tat on getting a new speaker lo.

then maybe you can consider edifier M2300???though slighty more expensive than M1310,but its a great improvement overall.somemore it fits your budget perfectly.with much more powerful bass,i think its better to pair M2300 up with the 360.

remember to test it out 1st.trust your ears most

Maybe you try audition those spekaer they mention then choose which suits you, every people got different taste....

can you guys help me decide which one to buy.. g500 or z5300. prefer to get g500 but i heard g500's sub will die in a year so dunno which one to get.

use mainly for games n music. movies sometimes.
looking for good surround sound for gaming n dvds. doesnt really matter for music.

i think u better don't get creative although the sound quality is good, go to their forum u will know the number of returning S750 and G500 set to Creative for repair. most of them just dead after use 2 month only. this is the example of user review, although they give very high score on the sound quality part => http://www.pcworld.com/product/userreviews...serreviews.html

Hehe, yeah that's truly a let down for creative's speaker.. because some fo them they are using the BASH amp and it produces a lot of heat.. or maybe it's because of the electricity that blow the cap.. but actually the problem isn't that serious too..

We have some sifu here to repair them too bcos normally it's bcos of the blown cap, if some channel doesn't produce any sound, it's 90% caused by the loosen cable inside the amp (they have cables for every channel to connect to the amp). Just open it, and tighten the cable, or fix their position by some UHU gum or what.. But still, not many ppl are willing to open up the amp unit as it's a bit risky (void warranty? im not sure hehe)..

Anyway, it's still a let down point

haha then it's a no go for creative. thanks alot!!

Choose Logitech Z5300....if you prefer G500, you also can buy it...if the speaker sub spoilt maybe you can ask pc work...

How much izit for Logitech Z5300?

RM800++
cheaper than G500 bout RM200
but how's the sound diff between this 2?

i doubt the 1900t3 will suit since those sets r monsters
recommend to get klipsh 2.0 or creatives 2.0 prices 399+- no sure bout creative one but the klipsh ones r not bad

anyone know this sony Hi-fi???
http://www.sony.com.my/sonystyle/product/p...ubcategoryid=63
can it be use as PC speaker and at the same time use at TV speaker???
