Z523 and Z323, by the way, is Z4 still in the market?? Or it is discontinued already?? Haven't been here for so long d, what latest speaker also don't know hahahah.
*
I can say z523 subwoofer is too small to be a SUB woofer as it features 4 inch driver with 6.5 inch passive radiator.
and the treble hurts my ear when turning the volume up high

never heard z323 in real life so no comment

I guess z4 is still in market,just have to look around more

i think almost all multimedia speakers emit any heat when cranked up.. but as long as it's within the limit it should not destroy the subwoofer.

worst music ive ever have is "DJ Billy E - Beats 4 My Van". its heating the subwoofer real fast. due to the low frequency of course.

that's an okay song.
try Woofer Cooker by Boston Acoustics

Just got myself a Logitech's X540 (waiting for it to arrive). Currently using on board audio Realtek ALC1200 8 channel HD on Asus P5Q Pro. (games,movies & music)

Since I am living in a place where auditioning is out of the question, I have few questions to ask the knowledgeable in this topic.

1. Lets say if i were to get myself a sound card, will it improve the surround experience?

2. Will tweaking the setting of the on board be enough instead of getting a sound card?

3. If getting a sound card would be better, any recommendations? (budget <RM350)

Thx in advance.
*
answer for
1.YES! OBVIOUSLY
2.tweaking is not enough. if source is bad,no matter how good your speakers are it'll still sound bad. so get a soundcard.
3.I don't know what to recommend

so left s330 and c3..i guess cool.gif

c3 will sure lose if you are crazy of bass
left mx5021 and s330

but I think you'll choose logitech z-2300 because it has the strongest bass in your list

Uh oh?? SO u think it could the vibrations? Ill try to reposition my sub then.

no need to reposition
just make sure your cpu doesn't have loose connections
logitech x540 bass isn't enough to shake the wires off loose your cpu unless it's already come off just touching

Hmm, the Altec spec is very impressive. Feels like it can out perform Z2300 but i'm just guessing. Also noticed it cost about RM250 more than  Z2300.
*
get the z-2300 and a good soundcard(if got money,get a better satellite to replace the stock z-2300 satellite)
with that combo it'll be much better than mx6021 plus extra bass wink.gif

I know there's a few sub RM100 2.1 speakers, but the nearest to RM100 is Sonic Gear Evo 3? But is it good? Anyone know any other 2.1 speakers around RM100 mark which is really good compared to its low price?

I heard Edifier is great for its subwoofer? But I need something for clarity, 320kbps audio playback, without noise in the background. Least possible biggrin.gif

the whole world will laugh at you if you buy sonic gear products

(well,maybe us only lol laugh.gif )

but please,don't buy sonic gear because it's not good.

Pc channel?I just want to use my Edifier speakers as an external speakers for my tv.That's it

just get those rca cables and plug them to the respective connections(ignore the yellow wire)

note that it will be very annoying if you want to change the volume unless you have a remote control

Guys

I'm pondering boutmy speaker purchase.

So, C3 vs S330?C3 has a much bigger satelite thus better sound effect and more room for sound vs S330 which has better bass.And yes, C3's satelites is made of wood and thus giving it a more "bookshelf" look rclxms.gif

Need some expert's help here as i don't really trust the quality of the songs played at the computer shops doh.gif

Usage: Music,gaming,movies icon_rolleyes.gif
*
both c3 and s330 is made of MDF wood
it's just that the cover outside is different

I'd say choose C3 for great listening experience and S330 for portability
