happens to me too...

I guess I'll have to throw this comment into my review as well

then there is no purpose of having a headphone jack there that has no power to power up my headphones.

I wouldn't mind too but the headphone jack is there and it must do a good purpose.

Logitech did it well with no ease,Altec Lansing is just fine no prob, heck, even sonic gear do it well.

Indirectly... It actually bypass thru the integrated amp...
Not sure if it's a separated headphone amp or direct to the main amp but reduced power by 50%

because you can actually tune the bass and treble while listening to your tunes

Below RM350

could be both LOL

but wait... is your S530D still new?
if yes then you need some time for it to run before it get's smooth. My S530D is harsh at the beginning until I got them well flexed and exercised via burn in for 100 hours more then it gets well.

But if your ears are used to dark sounding speakers that don't really like treble then you might find S530D harsh, so lower down your trebles.

on board soundcard
issit laptop onboard soundcard?
meh,whatever it is I'd recommend you to get one decent soundcard to get the S530D run smoothly.
The piercing sound might come from your soundcard.

do experiment with different sources like letting your S530D play via mp3 player or phone to see if the headache is still there

yea... probably it's new and come back complaining next time if you find it annoying still.

but if you said it sounded the same even with ipod then I dunno man... maybe it is because your S530D faulty.

soundcard is not important I guess since your problem doesn't come from soundcard
plan on that asus soundcard next time...

do some simple burn in process like pink noise for slightly above average listening for 3 hours per day for one month (lols... that's a lot of 'for' in a sentence)
and if you want you can go burn in your woofer by playing 40hz sine wave also for 3 hours per day for one month, make sure the woofer flex(move vigorously)

yes, burn in gets noisy and worsens your headache process but it does nourish your speakers a little with digital conditioner~
just get permissions or do burn in only when you're not around.
average music listening is also a process of burn in so you can use music too...


just a few questions, how does that irritating sound sounds like?
just like an old CRT TV beep whine hiss sound? or some buzzing electric sound? or some 10000Hz mosquito sine wave sound?

it's sad that rhinos are gone already
that's what I've heard la

let it be flat...
if you want then play play by doing V or U shaped curve.
other tips would be...

equalizers go by low to high sound.

tuning the ones on the left will result in the boom boom section which is bass
tuning the ones on the right will result in changing the high pitched sounds.

it's best that you don't play with them and let it go flat cuz that's the best settings.

3 separate boxes?
I tot S730D comes all in one box?

hmm... that's one odd looking speaker

that's S550

and S550 comes in only two box... I iz confuzed

I am too... confused XD

let it be... he probably thinks the speaker cabinets are boxes
remove all confusion... just assume something simple...
don't let a problem got you headache.


there is only S730D. the S730 is discontinued. whether you like the digital there or not you have to buy it XD
and yes it's only in one HUGE box... like how you say

revamped E1100 eh?

two things...
1. probably your cable got beaten up after the bends n such...
2. power cap filter isn't working properly.

solution for
no.1
get replacement cables

no.2
-provide your speaker with cleaner power by plugging into some power conditioner/power surge/lol I dunno man...
-if doing that doesn't help, repairs from Edifier crew must be done

the best I can help so far...

that moment when you suddenly remembered STAX headphones was with Edifier XD
the flyer was also there in the pic

kool~

haha you don't actually have to beg yourself to post a pic here XD
if you find inconvenient then don't have to

but still it's so awesome to look at the way customers place their speakers to their preference

at least you know you have to put the subwoofer on the floor.

many don't... they just put it on table and complains the lack of bass
