The rear wall is fine. It is the spacing between the speakers and the right wall being too close.

oh there is no right wall actually.. kena optical illusion by the wallpaper lolz.. but it is quite near to the left wall, maybe 0.5m or less.. today i take ruler back and measure lol..

MIne is connected to a h10. And i assure u it definitely sounds better then sp2500. To me sp2500 is a piece of junk. Colorful and fake sounding satellites, bass sounds hollow and fake too.

Pleased with my setup. Bass suffice both gaming and movies definitely
*
very huge price different between h10+h4 or h6, 3k+ for the setup where sp2500 is merely 700 only. should compare with something near the price tho.

unlike home theater receiver or amp, PC cannot do the bass crossover job.
so, pc (line level) >h6 (high pass) >h4

Hmm, not quite understand.. mean H6 have connection for h4 speaker?

x3 can do some serious bass but not deep bass. Punchy bass, yes. I am not a basshead anyway.

Just brought X3 from heavy arm, nice speaker for desktop and near field usage. Small size with big sound, much more comfort to listen when compare to Aego M on desktop, now my Aego M put at living room and perform much more better compare to putting in the small room on desktop. I think Aego M need to put wider and need bigger space for best performance.

For X3, Sound stage and Clarity is good, vocal i feel better than Aego M, bass is good enough but definitely cannot compare with 2.1 speaker like Aego M.
*
I use it as my hotel HT lol.. half way volume already rocking.. definitely loving it.. but I believe the speaker need to be widwr apart to sound better.

my table is big but is full with other stuff(laptop, desktop, monitor and etc.)  sad.gif
the price different between those two is RM1k,
current money available can buy the x3 but can save money for 2 month to get the x4 (I'm a student btw) laugh.gif
last  time buy ferox due to gaming and budget constraint not to mention no space on table and now want to get a speaker that can last 5++ years,
ferox sucks only lasted one year  sweat.gif
I want a speaker to watch movie and enjoy some music (I'm not into heavy bass, can't stand that kind of music  sad.gif )
I'm a student can't afford x6  laugh.gif , can be bought if I no eat for 3 semester  sweat.gif  laugh.gif

x3 is powerful indeed. but i feel like audioengine a5+ got better bass, less detail perhaps, but different price, a5+ maybe 1.5-18k. TS said x series the signature same, different is bass, so i believe x3 and x4 x6 might sound the same, but bass wise x6 will have better bass, i think x series is more like an all rounder series. i have no problem getting rumbling sound if i turn the volume halfway up with DAC, but i will get complaint by other tenant lol.

of course audio engine 5 give better bass, due to 5" driver.
actually u should turn DAC loud enough, right before clipping buffer, to feed speaker amp enough line signal.
otherwise the dynamic range is compressed.
make sure u audition x3 kaw2 as everybody has different taste.
heavvy bass might not ur favour, but lack of bass sure wont sound nice shakehead.gif
my personal opinion (no test centre at my place) is 3" unable to produce full range sound.
especially when u plan to keep for long. so at least x4 or other choices
aego is tuned to very nice, lovely tone
as expected... s530 no competition for spl flex.gif

how do u know where is right before the clipping buffer? sorry still a newb biggrin.gif i am using this ud100 anyway..

From my test sp2500 m50w sound abit warm then sp2500. For woofer I can't give any review because my sp2500 is at open area my hivi m50w is in tiny room
*
they say m50w sounds like the mid is fuller and rich compare to sp2500, which only have highs and low, middle is very weak, plus the subwoofer and satelitte doesnt blend well. I dont know how would i like m50w.. now back miri,sarawak edi, dunno where to find demo set >< is it possible to buy H6 to pair with x3?

guys, is it possible to pair X3 with H6 sub? or should i just buy m50w and ditch my x3? x3 is good for music, but gaming and movie, no subwoofer really cannot make it.. i looked at the back setting for H6, but doesnt look like got crossover or LP/HP filter or something like that..
