Lol, since you've already narrowed down ur choice to only these 2 speakers, the best way out would be audition isn't it? Hear it, like it, took it, as simple as that.

not easy
I love both
they both sound good to me

although c3 lack of bass,it can allow reduction of bass so neighbors won't complain
also c3 got external amp
and the sub 8 inch!!!

s330 btw have more bass(I like)
more compact as there is no external amp and have a cool control pod
sub is just 6.5 inch
kinda scared as 6.5 accepting so much bass have higher chance of breaking it rather than an 8 inch sub which is stronger.

then how liao?  u wait till the poll count satisfy then u follow the poll?

for me, i'd get the C3, cause sounds better in my ears.
also, the external amp really useful. next time want to hook other subwoofer, or do some experiment using different speakers etc... also looks better.

S330 has its advantage too. simple volume pod. smaller unit.
but i still take the C3 if were to choose. actually i nearly bought a C3 that time liao. but now think of R501. same price leh.

wait till my post is dead.
then see vote results.

depends on your usage, if you are more into gaming and movies, then you need more "boom....!!" sound.

if you scare neighbor complain, then dont max out the bass lar

humans like me is scary
i'm like those people sitting in a car,playing songs with four 12" subs behind the trunk trying to destroy my ears type of people
I need speakers to control me or I'm uncontrollable tongue.gif

i am using c3..i am agree with andrew9292. you can change cable + sound card to improve the clarity. it was cool if you have both the thing i mentioned but if you don't have please stay away from c3 cos it really bad when using on board sound card. just my 2 cents.

what if.....I change the sub brows.gif

wow
polls make things tight tongue.gif
you all really highly recommend s330???
lol
i thought of getting the 8 Inch sub would look cool.
I guess I can't choose c3 as I don't have enough $ to buy good soundcard
(let me think of it first)

hey
I see my post is revived again lol

s330 is good but in my opinion if connecting to PS3 it will be a headache to control the volume

so C3 wins in functionality because of the wireless remote smile.gif

Thread resurrection..
I have the same question with the TS,
in dilemma here,
Which one to choose,  C3 or s330?
I more to music and playing game than watching movie.

both of em almost in same price range,(s330 +rm40)
What i know about the speaker is
S330 pwn C3 in bass, simplicity but lack of function
C3 pwn s330, got moar function, got remote control, but the bass is weak compare to S330 and need a good sound card aswell good cable.
*
TS is here to save you biggrin.gif
in my opinion S330 isn't really that good for overall performance... the treble will kill you slowly day after days~
get the C3 and a good soundcard like Asus Xonar U1 (if you can still find it)... ignore cables as it does nothing huge...(unless you change them to silver cables)

if you can't find any good soundcard available then go get this
it's good and cheap at the same time thumbup.gif


but still... allow your ears to judge them as we can't help you in that part.
(or you can top it up and get an Edifier S530D or S730D brows.gif)

Btw, TS, as C3 user, do you recommend to upgrade the RCA cable? yea, because the speaker cable look fine to me, but the RCA cable is.. well.. cheap.. not like an audio cable at all.
About the sound card, Asus Xonar U1 and Creative 5.1 usb. which one u prefer?
*
to be honest I don't own a C3 but I do know it's characteristics pretty well

there's no need to upgrade the RCA cables... try it out first... the cable isn't really that crappy after all

upgrade the cable only when you got bored of it's sound...
when you do wanna upgrade... try upgrading to very thick gauge wires, if it doesn't satisfy you, upgrade to silver wire)

and for the second question... you don't need a 5.1 soundcard since you're not using a 5.1 speaker system... (and 5.1 speakers are a headache to play with)

so go get the U1

c3 has better bass depth, but lacks the decay if i'm not mistaken. hence the bass sounds dry yet very accurate, more like monitoring kind of bass, not soft nor relaxing

hope this might help a little bit wink.gif
*
C3 have pretty tight subwoofer as well...
to get acceptable bass user have to burn-in the subwoofer quite a while


40hz of pure sine wave for 1 hour once a day (make sure the subwoofer is moving at least half a centimeter)
a week of that will do enough exercise for the subwoofer

Seriously i dont recommend c3 coz if the axternal amp spoiled or wad,the whole speaker is gone.. tats my case..
*
isn't it the other way round?

cuz if external amp died... you get to pair your remaining speakers with other amps

but if it's built into the subwoofer or satellite, it's not very easy to replace the amp... whistling.gif

meh... if the amp dies... the whole speaker set is dead no matter if it's external or internal amp unless you repair or replace the amp
