correction - One thing i don't like about S750's is that (maybe its because of my housemate's treble config) .. the treble is SOOO loud that sometimes my ears hurt during car explosions scenes for example.

sorry i can't edit my own post .. something is wrong with my windows .. that is why u see multiple post. will join them once i reached the office tomorrow .. sorry again .. pai seh

well i have to agreed, logitech's bass is loud ,but dont have tat long throw woofer 's solid feel, tat ooohmmp, as u might say...
but its very decent enough for the price man, we have to agreed price VS performance it all come to value of the product,

i choose (i think mostly also) logitechs speakers mainly on the value of the speakers,

if i want performance i frankly wont choose creative, nor logitech, i move to ta next level, proper home theatre amps and speakers, ANY brand also can beat ta heck out of any pc speakers any hour or time loh~~

so buddy , i have to think for ur self loh, wat u buy the speakers for? no point comparing cause all speakers HAVE limitation, nothing is perfect.

so by buying pc speakers of course u are on budget right, so....
if u want music ,clearity feel, get ones with proper driver like creative or klipsh,

on the other hand, if u want bass and conectivities like optical, spdif, coaxial, get logitech loh....

regards, good luck on ur choice....

oh. did i say that? i must admit, my memory aint that great, but for what its worth, i dont remember saying that

bro, im confused. what are you trying to say?

hmmmm the s750's sub is bigger than the z680? youre absolutely sure about that? it looks smaller than my z5300's sub

this sounds interesting. please can you go check the settings? id really like to know

LOL

you dont really have to buy the gigaworks to blast all your neighbours to hell man [hmmm its nice to know i can ]. you can buy the gigaworks purely to enjoy its sweetness... when im done with my exams, im gonna use my 7.1 edge in HL2 online
oh yes, im really enjoying them. i use them at least 6days in a week

yea, all 7 sats are exactly the same. i once damaged one of the tweeters, but i wasnt very worried, i could change it to the other 5 locations [dont ask me why, and yes, i almost felt like crying]. i dont know about those stuff, i dont use them, i just enable CMSS2.0 when i game and disable it when im done

id like to share one of my most memorable moments with the gigaworks: when i loaded HL2 Online and started to shoot, i felt as if there was no bass whatsoever, kinda dissapointed but then i heard the detonation... OMG it was a punch to the heart. dissapointed no more! then, when i started to fire with the machine gun and moved forward, i could actually hear the bullet shells dropping to the floor and the sound fading away to the rear as i walked forward. that was one hell of a moment

thanks. was about to ask you already. for a moment i thought you were a star collector

so youre basically saying that all of us [the people who bought and are planning to buy the gigaworks and the PMU] are just fools?

i dont know if this is true, but it is to my belief that HT Systems are tuned for bass and effects, not *that* suitable for music.

PC speakers? any brand can beat them? the gigaworks and megaworks were built by the engineers from cambridge soundworks. C.soundworks was started by a person [the late henry kloss if im not mistaken] who was very much involded in hifis. the PMU were from Klipsch. they make hifis all the way down to pc speakers. i dont think theyre 'easy' to beat

haha good site bro...im going to read it!!

so many good brands now..Klipsch, creative,logi...no altec lancing haha~??

@silon
Im so sad for your tweeter man...what a accident..

not to be sarcastic here, i didnt know i step on your toes boy, sorry loh, i did know u were feeling like a fool for buying pc range speakers . i didnt even try to state or indicate that.... i'm feel u man,,, i'm simpatise u too~

first of i'm just helping ta dude to choose wat speakers to buy, not insulting u nor making u feels like a fool for buying pc range speakers.....,which i have some doubts now,

just because u think chambridge certified soundworks means absolute perfect for every range of usage dude, its just merely marketing tactics boy, i'm sorry u cant afford to experience proper home theatre sound stage, but tat does mean pc range are bad, man, i just means there are no perfect speakers around boy, its more to personal taste on how u match the built to your listening prefferences....

and klipsh are good no doubt , erm but maybe u and i are on a different level of audiophiles, but thier pc range totally sucks, why would someone built a 5.1 pc range without giving analog 5.1 in? well i believe they sound sweeter than 680 but dont u feel its a very ametuer approches to pc range market by not giving better connectivity?? as for logitech its is powerful in bass but lack multiple driver to makes a more dynamic sound than kilpsh, but its cheap kay....

so like i said nothing is perfect , like u for example, u might not be in ta big league but that doesnt make u a noob, i repect u share ur opinion but peace lah dude, i did say u a noob or an idiot...wats with the fury?

everyone here is just trying to help ta chap to make better choices in buying speakers he dont have much chance to test,
so .........cool boy....

Ohh...dont angry la fren....cool down~ hehe:P

Creative or logi both also good speakers la~

Yeah i dont have much chance to test the speakers nor look at creative gigaworks here (Aus) only can upgrade to Z5500 tats all..but no point on wasting money just some improvement while the bass still soo boomy~ haha

Maybe end of the yr creative gigaworks/ Z5500 the price will drop..then i might consider more tat time...i'll be back for holiday end of the yr

yup yup. i totally agreed on your taughts man, 680 was Rm14xx here last time, but now only Rm9xx, maybe sooner will 5500 also becomes cheaper hahaa....

oh u are in AUS? oooh so even, cari ausie dollar so nice....

hahaha yalooh loh, actually if i were u,hwoarang,.... i just let him be in his noob states, let him be... people try to share taughts and help others while he thinks people attacking his week mind....ish wat a piece of work....

i think he is desperate for attention, or maybe mommy never hug him when he was little, just sad....

wooi no need to work ah , so free to write insults....

@terencetoo, so u decides to wait for 5500 price drop? are u in AUS or malaysia? if in MY, why not buy 680 , so darn cheap here in malaysia... about Rm990 at Sri only.....

@Hwoarang45

haha tats what i though!! im selling off for SURE haha can untung back ozz money haha tat y i start this Z5500 n Z60 thread last time..coz plan to get another Z5500 when i got back hehe or gigaworks...so i hope logi will released the Z5450 wireless sets iz? haha looking forward!! hehe

Tat y im so despereate to know what is the improvement on Z5500 from Z680 ~~ thanks for Silon contribute so much on his gigaworks n some of his opinion. Whereas Hwoarang45 might thanks to u too~ haha

For what something call klipsim (dono what is called cant c any here) What GMX5.1 or something...is tat good? how's the price? but nevertheless, i'll stick to either Z5500 or greative giga...just c how it goes till the end ..really hope both speakers will drop...(no hard feelings on those who bought z5500 nor gigaworks earlier)

What about u stil at oz studying or working? Ozz money not ez to earn bro~~

altec have been sleeeping for the past few years... dunno what happened to them

oh... i sounded angry? then im sorry, i never meant for it to be that way. i thought the multiple smileys were enough to indicate my tone?

nop. i didnt say that cambridge certify stuff are perfecto, and you dont have to be sorry for me, i dont have much interest in surround sound and stuff, once in a while yes, but not all the time. im more into listening to music and for that, the gigaworks does the job nicely for me

the klipsch speakers youre talking about it, the GMX series?

once again, like i said, im cool about this, it was a misunderstanding. you got my tone all wrong. ill try to include even MORE smileys next the time

awwww now thats really sweet man. my mommy hugs and kisses me 10 times a day since i was born, i think ive enough attention thank you

in fact if anything, i too am contributing my *thoughts* [hmmm my weak mind in its n00bish state was able to spell that correctly] and opinion on this matter. everyone has their own opinion, if this wasnt the case forums wont exist. if you agree that multimedia speakers above rm1000 are not worth buying at all, then thats your opinion, im fine with it. but Hwoarang45 and others who think alike ought to see what other people think of this, i was merely trying to do so. this is, a place to share *thoughts* and opinions. you seem just as unwilling to open your mind to opinions as youre accusing me of.

nah, the GMX aint that great. they were designed for consoles [thus the digital connections and the pie shaped control module meant to be put on the floor or something]. the prices of klipsch speakers are all inflated here in malaysia. the GMX 5.1 should be selling for less than a grand [its currently selling for 1~1.3k] while the PMU should be around the gigawork's price, but its over rm2k.

silon - tomorrow i pic 30cm ruler on S750 sub and Z680 and take pics .. .. that was what i did before i made the post lor ... S750 is bigger in width, deep and height .... U broke tweeter only. My housemate letup the set already, sent to warranty for more than a week. i also letup mine z680 once lor (beyong reparable - replaced with a new one)

me - z680 is enough PC movie, mp3, astro, dvd on a pc screen. save the money to get a real HT system ... damn i can only afford a tiny condo for the time being .. how to place a HT system lah

Wow....Gmx also need a grand? n PMU almost 2 grand gosh y soo exp.? i though giga is the most exp bad boyz..the 2nd is Z5500 n 3rd Z680...im really 1 2 try out all these bad little boyz...
