Yeah, the software doesn't work in Win XP. That's too bad I guess.
It's either ATP3 or VS4121. I wouldn't recommend VS2121 honestly.

why not VS2121?
hmmm, hoping to get one set during this weekend; PC Fair

Trust me, if you have a chance to listen to its sound quality, you won't even consider this model at all.

ehehe, okie dokie, i trust you
so, it's either ATP3 (that is if they're still selling) or VS4121
made a decision on Altec Lansing
just a matter of which model
thanks!

Your TV out is RCA or just 3.5mm ministereo jack? if it is RCA, then you can buy RCA to 3.5mm stereo cable, it cheap only...sound quality depends on ur TV out, if it is bad, then MX5021 will produce same bad sound and vise-versa...
*
RCA, it got the red, white, and yellow thing tongue.gif
what do you call that? tv outputs? or rca outputs?
meaning, if i hook it up to my dvd player, then how will it be?
the quality would be as according to the dvd format?

rca is the red and white, yellow is the video. the sound quality that coolkwc mentioned is the tv u used, if ur connecting tv output to ur speakers...basicly its for watching normal tv channels. if ur watching dvd and so on, better off connect it to ur dvd player. quality comes from various part, dvd, the player, amp and so on. not only the dvd itself.

QUOTE(coolkwc @ Feb 23 2008, 02:44 PM)
Actually u no need extra cable to do that, i just remember that MX5021 provide the RCA to 3.5mm stereo converter, just hook up the RCA cable and the 3.5mm stereo line of ur MX5021 to the converter....  nod.gif

excellent explanations!
thanks a lot, guys
heading out to get this beauty tomorrow

the rca, red and white, what it does, actually?

so happy oh...satisfied or not? hmm.gif

yeah, very
it works perfectly playing DVDs on my PC, well, at least, to my likings la
as for music, if the bitrate is pretty low, then the sound quality would be really bad
no complain on the treble, though, at least not that i can found, now
have yet to try it out on my home tv and the dvd player
honestly speaking, this pair of speakers are really good, very satisfy with it
and it really shake up my room, even when it's on to the 4th led
thanks for all the suggestions and tips, ya!

Honestly as MX5021 user too, the movie is sound good without any adjustment...but i strongly advise do some EQ tweaking when listen to song, the performance of tweeter just shadowed by the midrange and bass...but depends on ur taste, if u feel good in default,then is OK. nod.gif

give me some advice la
i play mp3 with winamp
cannot use the preset settings at all
have to adjust by myself until it sounds okay
haha, how about you guys?

go to C:\Documents and Settings\ur accout name\Application Data\Winamp and open the "winamp" config file to edit the "eq_data" to 32,42,39,32,32,44,43,26,25,27 .....instead only using this, i also using "electri-Q" to boost the frequency beyond 16kHz and 40-55hz....u can see here...http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/296768/+1320

Maybe u will think the tweaking are too aggressive especially the bass and treble part...but the treble is just smooth after this tweaking thumbup.gif ...this works on me, u can try it...just set your own EQ if u don't like it.. nod.gif

EDIT: forget to tell u that i listen 80% chinese song and only 20% english song, so this setting is most suitable to chinese song... doh.gif
ah, no problem, i'll try that and see see
now in office, hehe
thanks!
