Guys, can give some suggestion about my situation ?
Budget rm200~rm400
I'm using for my PC gaming and watch movie, I don't know 2.1 or 5.1 because most of the time my speaker all in front of me and never set the back speak behind of me when using 4.1, is it ok that 4.1 or 5.1 all put in front of me ? Or it become a waste using like that ?

My Altec Lancing 4121 ( black) most of time just 1 speaker got sound, if lucky it work well, last few day my control no led light up and sound level is turn to max..... after i plug out n check the wire got 1 pin is break n stick inside the woofer there...

p/s No Altec Lansing & Sonic Gear.

Thank you power911 for the suggestion tongue.gif
If want to try on 5.1, is it still R501 from Edifier ?

Em, If want to compare with my old Altec Lansing 4100, is it R501 will beat it ?
Today I try out S330 and R501, really hard to decided which 1 want to grab, 1 is for clear sound, another is for surround "boom" ~~~

these two re pretty good speakers,each with its own advantages.So, I would say go for R501 if space is not a concern. smile.gif

Just want to know, actually the Edifier S530D is rm700++ or RM6++ around rm700 ?
Because I feel it disappear on the price list......T_T

Still hard to decided to get S330D or R501 when my Altec lansing 4121 "Red" led no work anymore cry.gif, now my Altec Lansing 4100 also .... stop working at all ( can't turn on... don't know want to knock where...).
So just upside down want to grab what speaker, 2.1 or 5.1, and budget don't over rm800, actually is want base on rm500 but since so much people suggest on S530D, so just want to know is how much nowadays.

They can test by your own mp3 or phone ? I though they already stick on their own player.
Hmm I will go test by these 3 choices again. Very hard to get between S330D or R501 for me, see is it the S530D will shock me direct grab it. tongue.gif

You are allowed to bring your own MP3 there. At least that is what I did when I first tested the Edifier S530D. Was really shocked with the sound produced.

Maybe I just copy those song to my phone then plug at there test.
Hmm S530D size quite big also... Need to arrange the table again if get it. tongue.gif
Or DA5000 ?

You don't need much space for the S530D. Only a small area for the subwoofer and satellite on the table. Unless you're rearranging the table position to get the best location for your speakers placement. Bear in mind that DA5000 is a 5.1 setup, therefore you will need a m/board that can support 5.1 or soundcard.

Ok, now I turn to focus on 2.1 which is S530D ( not list on price list.. need to check out is it still got this stock nowadays... ), due to my place, I will grab the S530D if possible. biggrin.gif

I see that you are from Klang as well. I am from Klang and travelled down to Lowyat to purchase my Edifier S530D. If distance is an issue for you, you could always purchase from Moderno at SS15. Good luck in your audiophiles journey bro.

Thanks, I'm Lowyat area kaki if the time allow, distance is not the problem tongue.gif
