errrrrrrrrr,why did you buy the speaker in the 1st place for???as a mini-home threater???then why not connect it directly to your DVD or Astro decoder?

can please tell you what you need the speaker for,so that we can do our best to help you?

errrrrrrrr,if i remember correctly,R501 got 2.1 mode which means the Rear-Left will sound exactly like Left while Rear-Right will be like Right too.try the configuration behind and see

i thought the bass will still be coming from the sub?that's weird...

anyway,maybe you can try hunting for Philips Aurilium PSC 805 if you can,but its discontinued already.its a very good soundcard for low budget.

well,for M360...i guess we gotta wait for Edifier there to come out with a M360 MKII while for the R501MKII,theres multiple inputs behind,just match it into the stereo 1,and it ll be stereo lo.thats what i remember

unlike satelites,sub actually can be placed anywhere as low frequencies sounds travel in all direction.so,in order for the bass not to be too over-powering and cover off the mids and highs from the satelites,its recommended to place it in a corner of the room.if the room is big,the sub will be under-powered,so adjust the position according to your needs.this is where C3 comes in,with the Ext. amp,you got more control over the sub placement.if you are using with your PC,under the comp table will be just fine

this is what i remember for reading around.might not be 100% accurate.

Edifier S530D

M2300 for its super value for money worthiness at only RM149

consider also E3100,M3400 and M3300 (cheapest to most expensive)

it is a good buy all along.especially good value for a mid range 5.1 PC speaker.C3 is very nice too,though its only 2.1.depends on your needs

i would say Sri Comp is still one of the best places to buy Edifier speakers.yeah,i know their services kinda but their speaker people are real good.and inter asia places their own person on duty there during the weekends,so its recommended to buy there.no idea about digital mall,that place looks like a total mess to me.i dont feel like shopping there,and the parking there is a real headache.

yup,you definitely wont enjoy the speaker so much as it will definitely be too powerful and cover the mids and highs of the satelites...it might be nice for technos though

just say you are from LYN to the guy wearing Edifier's Tee pushing Edifier's model and you will get immediate best price,no bargaining needed.Sweet~

well,wattage,components used,drivers size and almost everything.both are totally different.

totally agree about the noise pollution there.but the price can be better than the shops in lowyat depending on your threatening,i mean negotiation skill.

main difference would be the face lift and minor improvement on the innards
