intruder alert. this is altec lansing fans club lah....

PS : for me, i think MX5021 sounds much more better than klipsch
klipsch is just like car audio. boomy bass all over the way.
narrow sound stage some more.

i really like how the 2100 looks and sound. not bad speaker. it's sound stage is very wide.probably as wide as mx5021

what you wanna modify?

different ppl got different taste. i personally like atp3 more than other model listed above.
reason : my song collection were more to vocal, voices, slow jazz, and instrumental.

not nessecery. EMU0404 is a stereo card. not multichannel.


usually i prefer listen song with all EQ and dfx off. i found it is more natural and beautiful.
if on eq, especially software EQ. it will some how shrink sound stage and the "fullness" of the midrange. sound very metal/ digital..

lol i don't make it anymore. perhaps ask other ppl DIY can also..
=P

by the way.... i always turn my EQ off even on AC97.
weiredo, i think akabane EMU soundcard is NOT from creative.. it's from EMU itself...
just knew EMU also a brand , bought by creative... hehehe

akabane drjacker's EMU is from EMU brand itself
i did some search and found out, that creative bought over the whole EMU company and comes creative EMU Series, while before this creative were famous for it's live series.
and IMHO, the built quality of EMU brand looks better than Creative version of EMU.
and some review also conclude that EMU from EMU is better than EMU from creative.. WTF i am talking..

Thread starter, put me in the list
i have TWO acs295, and one ATP3

no. normally sound card will use standard 3.5mm mini stereo plug, which is sort of Universal for all headphone / earphone.
though some headphone might come with big stereo plug (1/4" Stereo)
but they will comes with adapter so that u can plug it into3.5mm
some special soudcard like ESI / EMU0404 uses some different plugs, ESI using standard RCA line out, and emu0404 has it own custom breakout which built from D9 (serial port) plug.

but nothings else to worry, u can buy speaker, then change the cable.
for good example, i had sold some EMU0404 D9 breakout, and some Stereo-Rca plug for people use with AEGO M (which takes RCA) and stereo-stereo (standard speaker-sound card) and some RCA-RCA (ESI to Aego M).

hope this help.
normally we see RCA out, Stereo out, and on EMU0404 is D9 out, EMU1212 is phono plug (Big Mono plugs)
however, except EMU, RCA and stereo out is very common (perhaps 98% in the market, and can be changes through cable easily, and widely available.)
while EMU0404 and EMU1212 is a bit rare, but still common plugs we can find and do it ourself incase the plugs is damage/ missing.
so
Teorically, all sound card can support ALL speaker
except u can't put a 7.1 speaker into a 5.1 soundcard.
or EMU0404 (stereo, 2.0/2.1) into edifier R501 MKII (5.1) else u will only get two channel sound.

no problems.
but it's not how many channel u should put in first place. normally people will buy soundcard according to it's sound quality.
and the spec. because most of sound card in market is mostly 5.1 already.

perhaps u can get philips pc805.
it perform pretty well and it's a multichannel soundcard (5.1)

i will be very appreciate if u want to pay me extra or same amount as midi specialist.. =P

well i didn't
=)
at least i stop making cable now.
=P
no point on keep poison u. while i can't offering u the cable.lol

if u has a chance, go and have a listen. it's tend to emphasis slightly on mid range.
does not mean it only produce mid range, and has bass and treble weak...
it's treble and bass is consider one of the best already.
=)

IMHO, i go to a shop in ikano there.
there's one big computer shop has MX4021, not as impressive as MX5021.

what is the nope in between?

i suggest buy external sound card, such as optoplay or pc805.
make it sounds better.

aiks... for me, yu long cost me an leg already.. i am poor though..
=P
zhao lu is cheaper right?
paring it with HD600 and KSC75 is REALLY REALLY REALLY good..

weired, should dont have a different between stereo and RCA out...
=P

lol... =P
iklas or not oh...
=P
hahaa anyway, hope u are happy with those cable i made. spend several hours on it.

haha, u may come to try when i go back to KL.


lol. i am just too "un-mature" to start an company, either for my skill / and my sosial relation...i just tried my best to make good cable, and bring it with affordable price to our friends who need an upgrade / custom cable.
