arrsoo,

since you have it for 2 weeks liao, whats your take on it?
have it met your expectation? compared to other speaker you heard of.
*
Ya, surprisingly once you turn the vol to 50% or more....wow, it really sing man!! Now, I really know what it means when you say even when you turn vol to max you also won't get the annoying feeling rclxm9.gif B4 that i was playing only around 30-40% of the vol, scared to disturb neighbour ma as my place is usually quiet at night. Tested over the weekend, turned the vol to 50%, shut my main door & take a walk on the corridoor outside, still can hear the music quite loud but not irritating at all thumbup.gif but still loud if my neighbour doesn't listen to my kind of music sweat.gif Actually, I was looking for something that cud deliver details & clarity even when in low vol...are there any?? I not bass head at all, I didn't miss the bass from my S2000 at all eventhough i only set the bass knob to ard 30%. Can Aego M deliver that kind of clarity at low vol?? hmm.gif

Prior to my purchase, I hv only check out the Sonic Gear A6 at Sri Com, its vacumm tube really caught my attention but the more I listen to it the more I felt its lacking in something which I dunno how to describe, so I read up all the speaker related threads in this forum & I that's where I got all the poisons biggrin.gif If I can remember correctly, beside you, brother IaHoS also owned the S2000, rite?? I must say I missed the AegoM's thread though becaused all this while, i tot AM is a 5.1 doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif Otherwise I would hv check out the AM thoroughly b4 committing.

Anyway, I'm quite happy now although I still wanna find out how good is the AM compare to S2000 drool.gif

arrsoo,

lahos dont have S2000, he auditioned mine b4.
Regarding AegoM, I think the clarity is there. But wont be as smooth as S2000. And its also very straight forward and harsh at times. You can safely said that AegoM really top every multimedia speaker out there in terms of clarity.

The thing is that, bigger drivers need more power to drive them efficiently. I think thats the case with S2000. Once you turn them past 50%, you should get all the spectrum that it shall play. When you play at low volume, the sound is weak and you dont notice all those details cos it sounds too soft for your ears. So you think its worth the pricetag now?

S3000?? I wonder if it would come with a 6.5" mid and a sub. The thing is that I really like the size of S2000. Its not really big and fit just everywhere.

Btw, are there anyway to bring all those details & clarity even in low vol?? Would a better soundcard/Zhalou DAC help?

You mean using the speakers only and discard the amp/DAC? Wouldn't it be waste of money since you are paying for the unit as a whole? I guess at the same value of RM1k, you can get a higher end unit of HiFi bookshelf. If I still remember correctly, there's a model call Diamond 9 or something which has been reviewed by TheStar before and has received a good rating.

that's wharfadale diamond 9.1 =) i don't quite like it's sounding. but it's not bad for it's price.

QUOTE(CooLeRthings @ Jun 21 2007, 07:24 PM)
....
bookshelve is almost same as floorstander la
just slightly not tat much bass compare
PcWork addict with 1 of the bookshelves from Sonus Faber n he say floorstander also not as nice as it

really depend
dun categorize booksleve is lower than floorstader, coz they almost the same level.

is not about wat the point of getting S2k if wanna get amp or watever
from the begining till now
i just repeating the same thing n question
is, how far can S2k Bookshelves go?
ppl always desire better, dun u wanna let ur S2k b much better?
tat y need to find it out ma
then ur guys keep repeating " then wat the point of getting S2k" pula
zzz
*
floorstander are meant if you have a really huge hall, or if you are really willing to spend to do room acoustic. or else. it will sing loud. but not balance.
easily get bass problem. while bookshelve has less this problem. and who ever said bookshelve has less bass then a 2.1 / 5.1, u should really come and visit me, or even coolerthings.

QUOTE(kapitan @ Jun 21 2007, 07:32 PM)
It seem like you dont get it.
If I ask you to get rid of your AegoM sub and replace it with something bigger and more powerful. Rip off the amp and fit in something more powerful. And then hook it all up. And then what you get? AegoM on steroid?

Besides how much would you spent on the amp anyway? Rm500 amp? What was that!!?? A decent one would cost around 2k at least. My mom got a Denon amp downstair. But I wasnt interested hooking it up to my S2000. I hook it up b4 with my CDT 6.5 component and its 80W proved more than enough to prick the whole speaker upside down.
*
anyway. those amp like denon and the speaker alphine speaker you discuss is about AV amp and car audio, it doesn't actually categorizes in hifi speaker / amp. anyway. it's good to discuss. however i found that people tend to protect certain things they own. AEGO M is not best. so do S2000. i am not talking S2000 not worth. just my personally taste, i don't like it.
however, what ever float your boat, it's your bank account, you shall be happy with your choice.
and you might bang coolerthings for what he have (aego M) and think that he is skeptic. however the truth is he owned a not bad entry level of HIFI speaker (from germany) way before he ever bought AEGO M. and he even owned marantz and cambridge audio amp. =) hope that justify somethings.
and if i am not remember wrong, he also hard bang AEGO M when he first bought it, it's way below his expectation anyway. lol..


QUOTE(Edifier @ Jun 23 2007, 01:20 PM)
Haha.. i also want to join too.
so.... Anyone can bring the Bring the AegoM??
*
can host the gathering at my place? =P i have not bad speaker, coolerthings bring his home main hifi setup + aego M over my place.. haha lol
have to depend if i am free.

u know.
thats the reason the sound didn't distort when you play it loud. so you won't feel irritating. and most hifi speaker "HAVE TO" have that characteristic. it's a basic anyway.
if i blast my speaker full volume, i guest two blocks of ppl can hear it.. =P
anyway... Mr. coolerthings had warned twice by security for blasting too loud, and neighbor complain.. hahaha luckily i am not there.
