you can try the new Edifier C2X

Hi all,

My current Altec Lansing MX5021 has sort of malfunctioned and am currently looking for a set of speakers (2.1/2.0) with a budget of approximately RM1,000.

The speakers will primarily be used for music(pop songs from Adele, etc) , as well as some gaming and movies sessions.

I currently own a set of Goldring DR150 + Vero cables and is satisfied with the clarity and details of the sound produced, although I would like to have a bit more bass. Therefore, I hope to find a speaker system with comparable level of clarity and details, with a balanced amount of bass for music and movie sessions.

For comparison sake, I have recently auditioned the Hivi/Swan M50W and I found that the bass is sufficient, but I feel that the sound produced lacks clarity.

I would really be glad if you guys could give me a few recommendations based on the above requirements. If possible, can you also provide me with the place where I can audition the speakers?

Thank you.

Bro, if you prefer clarity sound, you should try the Edifier e30.

M50W does not lack clarity, it's a warm sounding speaker and therefore it feels a little veil, just like the Sennheiser HD650. You can move on to:

D1010IV - RM 399 (possible price increase in January)
D1080IV - RM 559
M100Mk2 Bluetooth - RM 689
M200MK2 - RM 729

All speakers available for audition at Heavy Arm starting tomorrow. You can also purchase them from Wellcom PC.

Harman Kardon Sound Stick III

Hi guys, Im looking for a 2.1 speaker set for my laptop. Using it in a small room mainly for movie and music. Preferably with good bass. Budgets around RM200. Any recommendation? Thanks!!

Edifier M3400 or P3060

Dear Edifier/Cyntrix/E1-AKG,

Thanks for your recommendations! Will try to look for them for audition.

On a side note, assuming that I plan to purchase a RM2k 2.0 sound system (to be connected to my PC), if I were to compare between active speakers (like Aktimate Micro) and passive speakers (Bookshelves with amp), will there be any significant difference in sound performance between the two systems? I understand that passive speakers will have higher flexibility when it comes to upgrading the components (i.e. amp and speakers can be upgraded separately).

Thanks again!!

Hi Guys, need help. Please recommend me a best speaker at/below RM300 for macbook. clear sound and balance in all mode (if possible).
any brand will do, must be a good quality 1.
thanks!

2.0 speaker - Edifier R1600T Plus
2.1 speaker - Edifier HCS2330

Thanks. btw, how to pick between this 2? mainly is for music and movie.

i think i'll get hcs2330 because of the extra bass and remote.

still thinking wan buy or not

If your speakers are not up to par, no amplifier or source can make up for it. If you have RM 2k, consider getting the HiVi X4 or M200Mk3 + Stand. T200B + Stand is also around this range.

Hi bro, appreciate your prompt reply but I really need to audition the speakers. Can you kindly provide exact dates on the availability of the demo sets for the above mentioned models. Thanks.

After listening to S730D and S530D, I've decided to get S730D. The sound is much more tighter. Great for my ears and sucks for my wallet. Hah

Tried listening to music after setting up the speakers. Really great sound. Even at downstairs... The voice is very clear. The subwoofer is way to big for my room! Haha.

Later tonight gonna try watching transformer 3.

Wanna ask... Will there be any different if I switch to optical cable? Currently using RCA cable direct to my ps3.
Sorry for noob question.

Go for cheap or expensive optical cable?

Hey there, I've been waiting to test out the Swan M50W. May I know where I can do that?

Thanks.
