R1280T plays better music even if its pop rock music which requires a decent bass?

Yes, it can.

Guys which would you recommend?

The Swans M50W or EDI S350DB, or what else in the same price range.

Using it for all-round PC usage (gaming, movie, music)

hi guys, any chance to find ATP3?

ATP3 already EOL, don't think you can get it anymore.

Im trying hard to find a second hand AT3

I once had EDI S350DB, and it served me well

Past tense xD? upgraded?

its too much for my leisure use. so its kinda underutilized.

Looking for bookshelf speakers that are Bluetooth enabled. Currently considering R1700bt and Micca Mb42x (with bt amp). Any other that are worth considering?

My girlfriend likes classical music, while I like music with lots of drum and bass..

I read and see review that R1700BT give a very good quality sounds for it's size and price. I see people compare MB42x level to R1280, and R1700 is a step up than R1280. Considering it used to be almost USD200 price range, now can get it for less than RM400, that's about the same price with R1280DB. Even Amazon still selling it as USD150, so it's a very good bargain for quality bookshelf speaker.

I recently bought a Edifier S350DB, using it with my PC, and still not so sure about one thing, and that is which connectivity input is the best that I should use. Basically, there are 3 options for me that I know, and they are as following:-

A) RCA (via 3.5mm stereo jack output from motherboard)
B) Optical (via optical output port, also direct from motherboard)
C) Optical (via HDMI from my Graphic Card to my TV, and from TV optical out to S350DB. This option allows me to completely disable motherboard onboard audio)

Currently I'm using Option B, and not sure if it's the best yet. Some people told me I should buy a good dedicated sound card and switch to Option A, use RCA input. Can fellow sifu-sifu here provide some advice before I spend more money by buying a dedicated sound card.

Thank you.

unless you are using some junk laptop or cheapo handphone out as your source, I wouldn't really bother too much about connectivity as the difference is minute

Edifier gave you options so choose what's convenient.
I personally liked Edifier's built in DAC via optical sound as it is quite loud compared to my onboard.
But when compared side by side with my PCM2704 DAC vs onboard mobo realtek vs optical... I couldn't really differentiate it unless I try really hard as they all sound as good.
The only difference I heard was volume changes.

base on that picture seems satelite size is different.

Is 350DB vs 360DB midrange driver different? size diff also?

The main difference between the S350DB and S360DB is S360DB used planar tweeters and wireless woofer.
The sat will auto tuned and act as bookshelf speaker when the woofer is off.

Which of this speaker better to use logitech z506, edifier c2x, edifier m3280bt, edifier xm6bt or are there any other speaker below than rm 350 better that this

Can't compare 2.1 with 5.1 speaker system.

So which 2.1 speaker that is below 300 thar you recommend

For budget below RM300, i will recommend you give XM6BT a try.

I like to listen to music and watching movie.
So which is better a bookshelf or a 2.1 speaker should I get
