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.

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..

I didnt bang him for that.
I bang him cos he want to pair an expensive amp to S2000. sweat.gif

I just feel that for the price you pay for S2000, it sound worth. If said pay a few more K for an amp upgrade, definately not worth IMO regardless how well it sing by then. I will buy a HiFi with that much money.

I guess he expected too much from paying RM750 sweat.gif sweat.gif
I never really trust online reviews. I just went through them most of the time for info cos I hate asking sales rep who always not sure what they are selling.

again
u not get the point
i repeat again n again,
i just wanna know is there any improvement
i never say wanna own the setup, or ask ppl to make their setup like tat
all i wanna know, is how S2k performance
is an experiment, is not bout owning, is not bout the price worth it o not
but is a bonus to ppl out there tat own S2k if they know their S2k got lot of potential after the experiment

at least when they get enuff with the current sound, and wanna get something better or upgrade more, they no need to get another set of speakers, but just get a nicer amp to pair with it, then voila XD

so u say is tat waste money or save? u the 1 tat judge

Just explaining only... I got no grudge against anyone... k?
I didnt shoot you ma... just like you, I got my own opinion....
Peace!!! laugh.gif laugh.gif

I do get your point.. and I do have my own opinion on that... you and I two different entities... different attributes.... thats all....

Size does not matter.
This combo sucks shakehead.gif
The bass from MK2 is nothing to shout about. Sub should sound tight, not loose like Logitech or even MK2.

Instead of criticising the component used, why dont you go and get a audition in Edifier showroom. Despite the component used, its definately a sound system worth getting not because it was designed or possess a Phil Jones signature on it, but mainly because of the quality it possess. I myself have no idea how great or famous Phil Jones are. I went for an audition and was amazed. It offers something different than most MM speaker out there including Aego2/M.

Its okay if you went for a session and doesnt like it. At least you know what it can offers. Dont come here criticising something you never heard b4.

How can u so sure I never heard b4. I went to the showroom twice just to hear the sound of S2000 when it arrived at the showroom. I'm also a user of Edifier products and I'm just expecting more from Edifier high-end product. True, the S2000 does amazed me, but the more that I find out, it is the components that limit the true performance of the speaker. I can understand this may due to the manufacturing cost or whatever, however since it is targeting the high-end market, a little (just a little) better component won't cost an arm or a leg.

Ok... thats good...
Its not us who decide the final design and components used, though you can debate all night long but its not gonna make Edifier changed their minds anyway. Most just want to read reviews. Even the EMU card which cost hundred of dollars uses crappy op-amp, so its not just Edifier.

but it also doesnt mean end user like us can't complain right?

critiques n comment will make them improve their product
i know u really satisfy with ur own S2k
but not all of the others
some ppl want more
n request for better,
i dun think tat is a problem to edifier to take those complain,
but it seem tat's a problem to u?

You can complain all you like then.. if you feel yelling at your monitor/lcd will make Edifier think twice about it.

The thing is that although the quality of it exceed multimedia category in my opinion, its still being targeted towards PC mainly. Therefore I think Edifier did the right thing capping its cost so that it wont exceed the RM1-1.5k sale price.

IMO although consumer always looks for best bang for their bucks, manufacturers dont always think so. Just take Zhaolu or EMU cards for example. Ppl still complaining about the DAC, Op amp used inside these so called profesional recording card. Consumer just never satisfy while manufacturers never think they have earn enough bucks. Its all give n take. Buy it or leave it. Do whatever you want with your purchase, whether you like to mod it of rip it off.

The SQ of Juli@ is good by no doubt, but how does it sound with S2000 which is important. S2000 tend to be soothing, thus it sounds a bit too dull when you use something like Prodigy. It needs an agressive sounding soundcard to make it sound lively.

Exchanged a couple of PM with arrsoo and apparently he too feels that it sing better with his newly acquired 1212m though he isnt used to such brightness. But still with such brightness, its still not harsh like Aego is.
