Hi all,

I am currently planning to get a 2.1 computer system but I'm not too sure on what to get.
For a budget of RM600, what can I get in the market? Mainly for music and movies.
Currently looking at KLIPSCH Promedia GMX 2.1 or LOGITECH Z2300 SPEAKER 2.1 but not sure which is better?
I would prefer KLIPSCH @ RM400 compared to LOGITECH @ RM600 but what would everyone here say?

Thank you  notworthy.gif

If i have RM600, i rather buy either Altec Lansing MX5021, Edifier s330, Edifier C3 or Aego M. smile.gif

went to audition some speakers juz now..

i auditioned Edifier M3300 and Edifier M3400..

--> Price wise, M3300 is a lil bit more expensive than M3400..
--> Design wise, M3300 look more cool and stylish..
--> Bass wise, M3300 bass not tat loud, sounds hard oso (means ears dont feel tat comfortable); M3400 bass is better, softer bass..

in my opinion, for techno listeners and Cs gamers who budget has only rm200-250 (like me!! sweat.gif ),
M3400 is the right speaker to buy

**My opinion only.. Dont shoot me ar.. cool2.gif **

Hi guys

I would appreciate any advice from you speaker enthusiasts here on which 2.1 sound system should I choose.

I listen to music, play games and occasionally watch movie. I'm budgeting around RM500 - 600 on this set.

At first, I was thinking about Altec Lansing CS21 (which I believe is still available in certain shop) but since I'm living in east malaysia (take note that we have a limited amount of PC shop here), so my second option is AL MX5021.

So is there any other 2.1 speaker systems that can rival with Altec Lansing MX5021? It would be great if you can post here the advantages as well as the disadvantages of MX5021.

Thanks in advance.. biggrin.gif

just checked out Altec Lansing VS4221 at Harvey Norman... the sound totally sucks... only nice thing about it is that it comes with 2 kinds of input at the back... which is neat for PC and PS3 (RCA) input...

1st have to ask you question... You mostly use it for gaming, music or movie?
FOr music, recommend you to get S2.1m
For gaming, if you need powerful speaker then get S530 icon_rolleyes.gif

Just some of my opinion

speakers are something that is worth investing for they generally last a long long time. so it might be a good idea to actually save up for a set of good speakers than settle for a mediocre ones. i think many seniors will agree with me. i'm no expert in sound but i can at least differentiate good sound from bad ones. i'm using onboard sound from the motherboard, 5.1 output, and it still sounds good. biggrin.gif
