Both of this sound card are major in music. You are major in music, gaming or movie?

I using MX5021 too, pair it with Audigy2 Zs with stock cable. Your room is wooden wall or tile wall?
Well, the following story was my experience and all of this was just my 80cents icon_rolleyes.gif

My bed room is wooden wall located in the middle of inside my house, 3 side is wood and 1 side is tile. I place my woofer under left hand side of my table, behind of satellites and woofer is tile wall and direction to another side of wooden wall with window and door. When I listen songs with level 3- 3.5 volume, the people who stand outside my room will listen the more nice sound than I stay in my room. This is because the wooden wall... I think if my room is fully tile wall, the sound will be better. May be this is not the only reason made you not satisfy with your MX5021, may be is your songs (pirated or MP3 that download from internet will not clear as the encoded from original CD), your sound card or position or setting of your speaker.
Normally I will not enable my sound card equalizer because I want listen the true sound from my CD.
While about MX5021, I think if you watch movie it may not make you feel disappointed because it was a THX certified speaker.
If your friend computer has better sound card, bring your friend computer to your room have a test with your speaker!

hm... d college single room was jus wickedly SMALL ~~ d room i have at home is much bigger and sound improved tremendously biggrin.gif

and yep at college i enjoy d music from my friends room .... sounds like a very good quality and expensive system from OUTSIDE my own room :swt:

in room sounds like d sound is reflected n resonating within itself ... very "MESSY/NOISY" ... maybe d room was acting as a "box" with d door/ windows as its speaker output HAHAHA
fortunately at home i don face dis problem... smile.gif

and yeah d mp3's are mostly from somewhere in cyberspace or d shared networks in college ....

on d sound card... hm ...go on poison me ... pass me some sugessions ??

and i did read abt the philips ext sound card ...... can gimme some insights on it paired up with mx5021?? and where 2 get the card + price ~~ may get a lappy soon so an external may jus be suitable

hm.... forgot to mention i masing 1 bar on windows vol and 2 bar on mx5021 vol... treble its set at 2nd light jus before turning to the 3rd and bass set 2 2nd jus right after it turned from the 1st.

using these settings and the silver wire i am using for the speakers seems like i get very clear and defined treble yet without screching high's ... wif original ones cables if i place d treble so low to avoid d screeching the sound will be "muffeled" like theres a pillow on it ... d cable solved d issue biggrin.gif

btw anyone has a comparison from the older mx5021 and the newer ones? i am quite sure i purchased one of the newer versions would sooo like to know the differences ....

do i need 2 make my own wire to replace the original one which connects my soundcard(source) to the subs? will there be any significant /difference/improvements? and what would be the recomendations for the cable?? should i pair a warm(copper) wire or bright(silver) for the cable from soundcard 2 sub?? how will it effect the overall end?

um ... sorry for soo many questions .... but truely wan 2 learn from u sifu's biggrin.gif
