I have just tested some Edifier speaker and found out that C3 was so far the best choice for $ to performance .... but unfortunately unable to try out S330

I have the following Q:
1. How does C3 fare against S330 as it is a small top up... how much improvement or what improvements it provides.

2. If I am settling for C3 would it be good I wait for C5's launch ?

3. I kinda like HK Sound Stick 3's design , but would like to have a basis of comparison with C3 on what are the improvements I can foresee if I top-up few hundred $$ on top of the unique design -> went to Digital Mall & Midvalley can't find a place to test out...

btw more to performance 1st Looks 2nd

But i am having this dilemma. I check the I/O to do a bit of studying.
This will most likely be the configuration that I will use.

PC(X-fi Titanium) ----> S550 via 5.1 input
PS3 ----> S550 via AUX input

would this affects the the sounds quality of either one?
is there a hub out there that will solve this issue.
I may be able to connect the PC and PS3 to the TV and reroute it to the S550
but not sure if that's possible

too bad S550 does not come with an optical input otherwise it will be a straight forward thing

would be nice if you can include information first timers may find useful in the first post

ASUS XONAR ESSENCE STX or CREATIVE X-FI TITANIUM HD ?

For music listening like jazz, orchestra and normal movie watching.

kewl! new thread

Looking 2.1 PC Speaker
(any better than my previous ATP3)
budget: RM500+
mainly for: MUSIC (R&B,hip-hop, jazz)) >> Game
bass no need to strong...

Edifier S330D and use the digital coaxial input.

waiting all it restock then i will get my s530.....xD

how much total it cost?

THX certified is mainly for wat?

Speaker only cost around RM490, plus digital input cable either you choose RCA or Optical, cost vary from RM10 to 50 depending on what quality you getting.

THX certified is just a fun tag....to have good movie sounding. Most with that certified has house shaking woofer....

THX certified is just for the trend, people like to brag my speaker got THX logo... no use one.. but for PC speakers, usually the THX certified one have boom boom bass, though not all.

Can't decide between Gigaworks T3 and Aego M Heard T3 is better for Movies and Games, Aego M better for music.

But I do music and movies

Check out the Sound Stick III at MyBytes at Tropicana City Mall or MacStudio at Bangsar Shopping Centre, Berjaya Times Square and Low Yat Plaza.



JBL Creature III

Hmm.. its hard to decide whether I should go for 5.1 Surround speaker or Roccat Kave. :/ Any comments or suggestion ?

Never got a chance to test Aego M but played with T3 couple of times. Its a nice speaker for gaming and movies coz its crisp satellites and heavy bass. But hey, its also sounds great playing music. Just tune down the bass so the vocal and other instuments not covered by its bass

Go for 5.1 surround speaker like Edifier R501, blasting it will give more pleasure in surround sound environment. Like when you playing games or watching movies, the bass mostly will rumble you body and it will make you feel amazed. About Kave, since its a headphone.. you'll get an occurate and clearer sounding since the driver just deside your ears . But wearing a kave for long period of time will cause you a pain since this headphone are quite heavy. Your call

I'm at Kuching Sarawak currently.. and its hard to find those good speakers since limited choices of brand. I only can see Divoom and SonicGear around. ><

u can get the Edifier @ PC City.

I think I know where it is. Do you have the pricelist or know where to get em? Easier for me to sort out what I wanna buy. Hmm

budget lower to RM300 need to transfer some budget to my DSLR

any good recommend? clear & solid music sound enough
