if you can accommodate the space, easily 2800 la.

larger drivers and all.

Nice idea combining the r280 with c3.

Do you guys think combining r1800 with c2x or c3x will be good?

thanks.
the idea comes from the C3 being piss poor on mids, while the R2800 is all about that (being a 2.0 and all.)
so voila, let them compliment each other smile.gif

I read power 11 review on c2x, milo can sound on the mids worse than c3x.

Really tempted to get the r2800 but afraid that it needs to be to loud too sound good. But r1800t3 only got two drivers, mids may not sound as good as r280 or r2730db which has the drivers each.

thats a common misconception for hifi requires playback to be loud.
while it is certain better to play loud (of course not excessively loud) as almost all hifi equipment CAN cater (not so much they need to be loud) and most people these days have a preference towards loudness (eg: a modern pop/rock song for example) which sparked a loudness war many years back.

So you say it all sounds good if you don't turn it to loud because you are living in terrace house with people nearby?


Some people say certain speaker are lazy in the sense that it need to reach certain loudness level to start to sounds good while other already sounds goods at low volume.

i do blast my speakers on occasion so long it isnt too late night/inconvenient hours.

however even without doing so it still sounds way better than the C3 at much softer volume smile.gif

C3x seems overpriced and not that popular compared to c3 though.

I do think they need to be loud somewhat in order to reach the ideal listening volume. OK, perhaps my ears are getting worse, but I do always had my S2000 at 60-70% at least and my wife will nag. Thats why I moved them downstair.

Do s2000 have back bass reflex port? If so do you need to put it some distance from the wall?

No. It's front. There's no need for a back port imo.

I see. The new not yet in Malaysia s1000 is back firing though. Like r200db.

Nice review. Now I'm not sure what speaker to buy. R2800 got nice price. Among china manufactured speaker, it is good and reliable.

Have you tried directly with laptop? Certain laptop is a warming source. Some people who complained that their ath msr7 headphone too bright and sibilant find that it sound better from the humble laptop.

Maybe because of the Realtek chips I don't know.
