Not bad, the woofer is quite powerful and overall was clear as I heard from the demo set.

Don't decide so quick ah....try audit demo set before you decide.
Maybe R1600T Plus suits you.

Sadly I never audit SP2500 before  sad.gif

But T3 does give me an impression is like you can make overwhelming bass with crystal clear satellite speakers. It has weakness on lower mid to mid bass region.

Hard to explain in words  sad.gif

Lack of low mid to mid bass region sounds like lack of strength, or thin. In vocal, male voice is much easier to find out, or you can test out Adele album. Too much of it then will sound like radio, if you can imagine what I mean.

Better you try audit the demo set and compare around you might be understand what I mean.

hmm, not sure where got t3 for testing. maybe ALL IT ?

else, what other u would recommend that overall good for me?

SP2500 is already quite big?  blink.gif

Maybe you can look for Edifier S330, or just go ahead Creative Gigaworks T3.

S530D quality is good and it can go quite loud, more info you can refer to mr. power911  biggrin.gif
*
There are 2 used set for s530d in gs, price around 550 , worth ? How big actually for the woofer size of s530d ? I'm now in lowyat but can't find a demo , only the s730

you saved RM250 so it's good
ONLY if it's still in good condition,brand new or unused

if it has faults like chipped off paint and such... maybe no. (who knows they might have dropped it or something)

but overall it's cool
*
hmm it's used unit la, almost 2 years old. aih new set rm750 only??

i saw new speaker , dunno good or not , expecting rm6xx

alright thanks, but i don't see many of it in stock, is it an old model, how about vs4121 ?
*
not sure about the altec lensing but i can share what i experienced. this is how it happened, few years back i went to sri comp and bought an AL 2.1 speaker, forgot which model, price around rm200. then go home i setup and i regretted, the sounds sucked, straight i sms my buddy, rm50 off the price i bought and sold to him. after cod i straight go back sri comp and grab the m3400, love it, using it until today. yeah the model is old but it's good, that's why ppl still recommending it biggrin.gif . i believe u can find one of those m3400 in lowyat plaza, try ALL IT, sri comp, jayacom, viewnet, i'm sure one of them have the stock

QUOTE(Cosef @ Sep 13 2012, 01:16 PM)
Looks good, have you audit the demo unit?

Internal components looks promising, Sauce

Swan speaker is very famous even in US and Europe, it's another level from Edifier. Well, speaking about the passive speakers of course. The active speakers are very reputable as well
*
really ? then this seems like a good deal

the swan M50W 2.1 price should fall around rm689, demo unit available , anyone? drool.gif

cyntrixtech has it, i think should be around old klang road

RM 689? I saw the price RM2k here which is wayyy out of my budget so i gave up on it. I am currently looking at the promedia 2.1 which is back available in SG for SGD 340 which is around RM 800. I would go for the swans if really RM 689. My music taste is mainly progressive house.

wait until cyntrixtech update their final selling price, hehe

i guess the swan is more audiophile, z623 more for gaming and it's loudness
