what would you guys think to get is better the ediffier r2000 or the swan d1080-IV? in terms of looks the d1080 kills it but is around a 100 more expensive than the r2000

You can jump straight to Edifier C3 without a soundcard first.
If you are not satisfied then only upgrade it next time

Edifier C6 is for light entertainment
DA5000PRO suits TV usage more
though both are able to connect to tv media but DA5000PRO performs better wink.gif

just google d1080-iv and read that its 2.0 around 245 AUD....

well if you read my posts, i do think r2700 is a good product. maybe the problem is that it has not reach malaysia yet and people still cant audition to assess its performance.

anyway, anything about ear is really subjective indeed.
*
ya i read your post i am highly intrested to listen to the r2700 as its a 3-way
as for the d1080-iv it will be here on nov

I assume edifier m1360 is better than fiio n3 since its 2.1? But sacrifice the portability.
Btw where to get fiio n3. Couldn't find seller.

erm i am not sure which one is better but a speaker will not sound better just because is a 2.1 or 2.0. they are just different smile.gif

Hi all,
I've narrowed my options to these 3 speakers :

- M-Audio AV40
- Bose MusicMonitor 1100
- Audioengine A5

Price wise,similar..but dunno which suits me.. hmm.gif
40% music,40% gaming and the rest is for movies.. smile.gif

Thanks!!

Edit :i'll be using Asus Essence STX as a sound card.

thanks for the reply , i will definitely look into Hivi M50w and Hivi M200KIII. When i dumped my m3300, i really want to get a decent speaker under Rm1.5k, cuz looking no more upgrade in 4 5 years. Music come first , then movie , but i play music 80%, 20% for movies. Bass doesnt need to be very powerful but be adequate for movie, m3300 bass is weak but just enough for me. So, need a allrounder speaker. But do u know where is the local distributor for  Hivi M200KIII  , somewhere in KL? If it need to be import from China, then it will be out of my consideration.

for the swan series the d1080-iv have the strongest bass if i have 1.5k buggest and want bass i will go for maybe m200II than add on another swan h6 sub

if you want bass that will shake your room the something with a sub a 2.1 set up. a 2.0 will give you musical bass. since you listen to dubstep and those i think is safe to assume you like those bass than will shake your room's door right? than get something with a sub

Hi pros,

any similar range like Audioengine 5 (A5) & Epoz AktiMate Mini (music) ?

Other than these 2 ?  any other option ?

the Beolab 4 (PC) good enough ?  price definitely is much much more higher.  how about the clarity n clean sound? 

for music only.  jazz classical, I'm not the techno type ...

Please comment ..  THX ~ !  much appreciate.

the swan series?

Hello, can anyone here recommend DAC RM150-RM250 for z623?
If possible I'd like better clarity for the speaker.

the ud100??

Hi, really need some advise in buying new speaker.
60% music + 10% gaming + 30% movie
budget is around Rm300... so not sure whether 2.0 or 2.1 to go for..
Any recommendation?
Prefer smooth bass and vocal, not Boomy boomy type (way too old for that)
or if budget available, RM400-500 also can be consider depends on the speaker.
*
i would say a 2.0 is a better setup for you, since you lots of music, take a look at the swan hivi series

Yup, that is what i have in mind, a get of 2.0.
Since Edifier R2700 is quite a nice choice, but it is quite expensive to postage from penisular to sarawak where i live in. (estimate RM2xx postage).
Any other lower budget 2.0 ?

basically a good 2.0 will cost you more then 500 is sad but thats the nature of it

Ok, since you put it that way, how is Swan D1080-IV if compare to R2700? for me, the D1080-IV get quite balance in vocal and Bass,  Swan M200 have a much richer vocal and detail compare to D1080-IV (but the price is way out of my league, plus i think the vocal kind of overwhelm the bass, but that just personal opinion)..but i havent get the chance the try R2700.. not sure how is the taste of the speaker..
*
bassically the d1080 iv is more balance like what you say but is still coloured i heard the r2700 before but since is in a computer shop i cant really comment much but bassically with a bigger woofer you should get more low-ed end respond

yup, Anyway, D1080-Iv is a 2-way crossover speaker, and R2700 kind of advantage due to its 3-ways crossover. Really seldom see some home use 2.0 comes with 3-ways crossovers since the mid-range usually cost a lot more then the tweeter and mid-bass. Theoretically, R2700 should be a lot batter in vocal, but u know, its all about our own ear.  So i think wont be rushing to choose between D1080-Iv and R2700. Will wait for the real audit first before making that decision. Just wonder am i able to find R2700 in east malaysia. sad.gif

basically a 2.0 speaker will consist of 2 way only. the only other 3 way speaker i see before is the krk 10
QUOTE(Duckies @ May 17 2013, 01:06 AM)
It's kinda hard to find R2700 hmm.gif Any other model recommendation?

do you really need 3 way?

Usually 3-ways cost more then 2-ways and rarely seen on desktop 2.0 speaker. Theoretically, 3-ways speaker can get more fluence in terms of continuity of high frequency to low frequency due to the High-Mid speaker.

In other words, 2.0 speaker only got tweeter (for high frequency sound) and mid-bass unit ( for mid-low frequency sound). Which will exist a gap between the frequency which both the tweeter and mid-bass can't cover.

And that is the function for the other unit, the high-mid speaker (middle size), which can cover the frequency that the tweeter and the mid-bass can't.

But, the point is, high end 2.0 speaker even if 2-ways, can cover those frequency quite nicely and almost makes no difference with 3-ways. So just trust your ear and not those 2-ways, 3-ways.  smile.gif

That just my little opinion, since myself also looking for a set of 2.0 speaker regardless of 3-ways or 2-ways.  tongue.gif

ya ya what icecube say is true. the r2700 should have a better low-er end respond but again if you go after a higher end 2.0 speaker with an 8 inch woofer it should give you more then enough low end withough needing a sub. one of the factor i got the d1080-iv is because of the look of the speaker itself the r2700 look shakehead.gif
