AegoM is the name of the speaker, the company name is Acoustic Energy. The price is what? RM700+? I don't remember but its around that, yeah people say cheap thing no good bla bla bla but not all people have the money to buy everything expensive. If you curious look at the review here:
http://www.trustedreviews.com/multimedia/r...o-M-Speakers/p1

I don't know much speaker that good for about RM300 but I've used a Logitech X-230 (about RM190 I think) and it sounds quite good, probably there's more bang for your buck speaker out there, obviously I can't recommend something that I never heard of, but take note all the recommendation, go to shop and ask for running demo first and buy judging by your ears, not by fanboys or reviews. Different people different taste especially in something as subjective as an audio

Hehe, ask those forumer who own an Aego to let you test, or else lastime i went to hifi shop in Wisma MPL (the one that Davis mentioned). The 1st thing u'll look at the size of the satellite then you'll start thinking whether that's really the sound produced by the the tiny satellite.

really interested to listen at this Aegom u guys r toking bout..
if is really very very good n is less than rm 500 still can considering buying..

but now.. can any1 suggest others within my budget? rm 300 below...sm ppl think 300 for a 2.1 speaker is oredi hell expensive n they recommend me 5.1 instead... but i don need 5 speakers.

Or should i cut down my budget on speaker..n focus on a better soundcard instead? will it make lots of difference? still sound system im hoping to get within rm 300.. if not max rm 400

Creative? Altec Lansing? which better? smtime is very hard to test speaker when go to buy that time.. d interfering of other speakers n surrounding r disturbing. cant really tell.

I just came back from Singapore, and I saw a Bose Companion 3 Series 2 being sold there for around $450. I heard the sound coming from these speakers, and it was orgasmic! I was seriously interested in it and wanted to buy it when my friend told me that it could get held by the customs if I tried to bring them over here.

I don't know whether this is the correct place to ask this or not, but I want to know where can I buy these speakers and how much will they cost in Malaysia?

Thank you.

The Companion 3 is about RM1K or so here in KL. You can get them at the BOSE outlet at One Utama or KLCC.

I just came back from One Utama and it seems that the Bose shop there is closed already. I'm gonna go to KLCC next weekend to find the speakers.

I'm kinda new to this audiophille things, can someone give me a brief introduction + info on these things? Like, whether I should get an amp, or change my soundcard to compliment the Bose Companion 3 speakers? Thanks again.

EDIT: Oh yeah, one more thing, I have a Sony STR-K840P amp together with the 5.1 speakers which my dad is willing to give me. Is this better than the Bose Companion 3 Series 2 speakers?

You cant compare 2.1 speaker with 5.1 speaker. But Bose Companion 5 integrate a virtual 5.1 surround technology, may be you can have a test of Companion 5 whistling.gif whistling.gif
