My cousin had this, sounds excellent and very affordable. The only problem, it died exactly 1 week after warranty expired. Maybe he was just unlucky.

Looking for 2.1 speakers.

Budget not high... 120+-.

Considering Logitech X-210, Edifier M1335 and Altec Lansing BXR1121. Added... Creative SBS A300

Suggestions please. Just normal music listening+movie+gaming. No need real strong sound.
New into 2.1 speaker set. If base on brand... i will think altec lansing is better but i don't think i can choose based on brand. need ur commentss

Comments i found so far...
x-210: strong bass
bxr-1121: what i like is the aux port. Can connect my hp without disconnecting from laptop.
m1335: Saw a bass controller on the sub. I think it will be quite useful too. But... the size of the sub quite big
SBS A300:...
Haven't have a look on any of the speakers in any shop yet.

Please give some suggestion for other models with around the price range. Another thing is that... can anyone link me to any seller of sonic gear in lowyat? I can't really see any in garage sale.... I mean link me to the thread selling 'new' speakers only. THX!!

RM120 is pretty low for a good all-round speaker. But base on your need i think Logitech X-210 will do just fine.

for RM120 (lower end budget), you can always opt for Edifier M1335F, or look for a good deal in Garage Sales, you might be able to get Edifier M2300.
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1319517

Altec Lansing used to be good, but the newer models nowadays, according to the forummers, aren't good anymore. not sure about Logitech, but avoid Sonic Gear at all cost laugh.gif

Then i think i will only consider Edifier M1335 and Logitech X-210. Heard of sonic gear's poor quality too... How about eacan A600MI? Saw it at tropicana mall's carrefour with one satellite spoilt(dunno how to say but the... what is that call? the layer which will vibrate... dunno call what is pushed inside by someone...)

RM120 is low but i don't have much budget for it. Just want to listen to some nice quality music with nice speaker but not to say spend a lot on it. Still a student so budget is always a limitation. Another thing is that... I will be staying with my frens. Can't buy higher power speaker to pump the condo with music... or noise(for some ppl). Even got budget for it... I will be wasting it as i won't utilize the power of the speaker.

So now... M1335/x-210 or eacan A600Mi(i don't actually like the subwoofer and satellite design which will easily spoil it by pressing at them compare to X-210 sub which is downwards firing-i think no ppl will purposely turn it over to spoil it)...

if you are worried that the sub will spoil easily by physical acts,then m1335 is the best because everything is covered smile.gif
tested the a600mi and felt like the sub needs improvement inside the enclosure
felt like got echos when played loud,needs more acoustic fluff I guess

e3100 sq good or bad depends on the person's taste
I'm talking about the functions it can do and how loud can it go

whatever you do please prevent yourself from buying sonic gear. it's worthless
divoom is a good choice.
I've lost hope on altec lansing quality control as their parts are cheap parts now
no idea how microlab will do
logitech is good but the bass ummh.....

you can also try Eacan speakers. They sounded pretty good for the price and they are beautiful too

u said divoom good choice?? really nice kah?? i like divoom x force 1 design.. look like logitech z5500.. lol.. but never heard it perform yet..

u said divoom nice, their high end speaker nice or even their low end oso nice?? i heard xforce 5 before la.. really boom ur heart out feeling.. but price kinda expensive..

Sien. quite lazy to go lowyat. I found there too messy for me... Too many shops and everything is like not arranged... Hope coming pc fair got these models. i wanna try out.


Added on March 19, 2010, 11:18 pmWent lowyat. Only able to try out Edifier M1335F. Not bad. I only saw Logitech X-210 in one shop in lowyat(i din go through all the shop but went in those shops which i can see the speaker corner only). Not turned on... so cannot try out the sound. Price... RM125 for X-210, RM109 for M1335, RM129 for M1335F. Will try them out again in PC Fair. Will buy them in PC Fair too.

If you think lowyat is messy, i think KL PC Fair is far more messy.

Yea but... there's always a section specially for speakers. Just walk around that section will do. however... i went to lowyat also. Only found one shop with logitech x-210. None in digital mall. Youtube-d x-210 and found many good review about its strong bass. Going for it!!

but the sound will be messy
full 360 degree around you will be BOOM BOOM BOOM with bass and the dealer will keep asking you to buy this and that and others will be pushing you around
basically a good sounding speaker will always sound bad during PC Fair because of interruption and stuff
best to go to a dedicated shop to test then only buy it in PC Fair when satisfied.
