Agree. When I was using the S730, even setting the treble at +4, I still feel that it doesn't really meet my expectation, however, I wasn't using any SC by then.

Perhaps you needa pair the S730 with a good SC..
I think that will solve the problem..
I met the prob with my Edifier R1900T3 too.
I changed my SC then no prob d..

Guys, I'm in dilemma of picking one from these few speakers that i have listed down.

Well my budget is pretty not more than 550, hence my desire for s730 is canceled. (so as sound stick 2).

I would like something that works good with music like jazz,orchestra, rock, pop with clarity and tight bass.

but at the same time doesn't lose out too much at hip hop, rap, techno, trance and house.


I'm using a Creative Audigy 2 ZS pro, wasn't cheap back then. Guess its good enough to fire something sweet?

So:

- S330
- Z-2300 (dont think it suits me?)
- C3
- R1900T III

OR perhaps something else that you guys could recommend please?

Thanks. smile.gif

all speakers are great except the logitech z-2300

I'd choose R1900TIII and C3
because
R1900TIII very good in music
C3 got external amp and remote control

but I think you should choose S330
great all rounder

why not try Edifier R2000T? Just giving some opinions...

go audition it yourself... cuz different ppl different taste

Thank you for replying my friend. smile.gif

I see that you recommend people on s730 a lot. haha However i couldn't afford buying that lovely thing.

On the other hand, for RM400, I favor C3 and S330 more. But at the same time, I couldn't still differentiate the general differences of both.
I'm aware that auditioning with own ears matters the most in the end. However, I couldn't find a quiet shop which has S330 and C3 on display, yet.

So perhaps power911, you could explain more on this 2 models please?

Thank You in advanced. thumbup.gif

red markers indicate bad points

C3
-big 8"subwoofer (but it sounded weak and disappointing)
-3" midrange driver
-0.75" tweeter
-not enough oomph for the bass (but it is well tuned and sound great)
-more sound for midrange (feeling warm)
-trebles are sparkly (some say it sounded like plastic)
-vocals are sweet
-external amp (which is good so that the amp won't share space with the subwoofer and won't heat up so easily)
-two inputs
-easy to use controls(includes volume control for volume,bass,and treble)
-comes with wireless IR remote
-the whole system is big and requires quite a bit of space
-overall sound quality is well tuned


S330
-6.5" subwoofer
-2" midrange driver (a little too small)
-0.8" phase plug tweeter
-more bass compared to C3 (some say it's loose and boomy,lose to C3 in sound quality)
-mids are just okay (some say it is not enough due to the small 2" speaker)
-trebles are sweet and clean
-vocals are clean and natural
-amp built into subwoofer (bad ventilation)
-included wired remote (does not include wireless remote like C3)
-bass volume located behind the subwoofer (very hard to reach)
-does not include treble volume (will be bad for people who don't like trebles)
-average sized speaker system
-Phil Jones signature speaker
-overall sound quality= great sound but not customizable

ahh... 10 minutes of my life wasted tongue.gif

well i don't think AEGO M is better than S2000V, at least for me. also iirc the S2000V is also slightly more expensive than the AEGO M.
