I'd go for Edifier C3 if got the RM400 cash

Big speaker but surely fits small desk

C3 more suited for music...

Hi sifu,

Any good speakers recommendation for jazz and vocal music?
My budget is 1K. (prefer 2.1 or without subwoofer is fine because I can use  my 12 yrs old sony subwoofer)

Can I use my 12 yrs old Sony Amp to pairs the new speakers?

Try Hivi bookshelf speakers or maybe the Audio Engine series hmm.gif

You can call SriCom to check whether they still have any stock.
We don't have any stock in hand at the moment, need to wait for next shipment.

My MX5021 sub woofer is dead... It can power up the controller and satellite, but only bass is heard, the supposed "music" is like at 5% level. I borrowed my friend MX5021 woofer and plug in and it works fine.

Can any sifu recommend me something that can match MX5021 performance? sad.gif

This is prolly asked alot and I have been reading around but still can't come up with a definitive choice. My budget is about 2.5 to 3k for an amp. I will mostly use it for movies and music. Should be about 50/50 distribution among the two........

Now I have auditioned a set of Onkyo 414 with Jamo 606 ( i think it's 606 ) but it doesn't sound any good at all. The bass was very bad till the point the speakers were crackling..like farting.......I am not sure if it's because the speakers were already abused which cause it to sound like this or it's the amps inability to drive it but I was not impressed.

Long story short...the Onkyo 616 seems like the choice to go but alot are saying that if I want sound quality, I should look at marantz or denon.......then again there's yamaha......the 673 caught my eye but why is the output per channel only at 90W???

What do you guys recommend? I understand that Onkyo is all about power but I am very picky with sound....I don't want all power with muffed out sounds......so.........recommendation guys??

I seriously had no idea about hi-fi but I was recommended with NAD amps. (namely NAD C 375BEE Integrated Amplifier)

I personally owned NAD302 and it's a way old model to recommend to you but I have to say it is a very warm sounding amp BUT it doesn't muds up the mids at all

Plus any idea what speakers you would be pairing with?

different speakers different amp yo~

That's hard to pick one out. I'm not sure if Edifier S530D, Edifier S730D or Altec Lansing MX6021 is up to par with this speaker. unsure.gif

I don't know what speakers to get yet. Jamo?? Any better ones?? Budget would be about 4k for a 5.0 system. Subwoofer can come later......

NAD is an amplifier for general purpose.
Suits music or movie? that depends on pairing also
I know my NAD302 is for music

4k?

I am surely eying on some KEF Refrence 201/2 or Wharfedale Diamond 10.1 but they are musical... they work for movies too.

but then again, hi-fi is too expensive for me so I didn't research much so I couldn't help much also notworthy.gif
