just back from lowyat, i go Sri Computer, Viewnet, TechAsia and Thundermatch, all say no stock or dont have the sonicgear enzo 7000, TechAsia there say maybe after 2 weeks only have sad.gif

they all only got display unit, and the price is about RM449

here is the 2 picture i get from the amp of enzo, one is enzo 6000 another is enzo 7000, only enzo 7000 got the optical input, even enzo 6000 also dont have

this is the enzo 6000 amp, the input part only have L and R then the rest is the 5.1 input
Attached Image

this is the enzo 7000 amp, the input part have the spdif, optical and also L R, but strange enough, why spdif is red and white? aren't spdif is the optical itself? hmm.gif
Attached Image

and also the sub, center speaker, and satellite speaker all are not clip or rca, the wire is connected directly to the speaker there then rca at the amp there, so how can i extend it? if you say rca or clip then maybe easy, but if there is no jack then how?

not design it ler, i mean like, make it look like a normal speaker, like those satellite speaker, a wooden casing and a cover, and i think no need to do much wiring if i do so right?

i assume amp are not needed? hmm.gif

yaya.....bookshelf speaker, small one, not really those home theater level one...

i'm not really into doing a dedicated room for home theater...

if i could find some used speaker from car maybe i can mod it to bookshelf speaker since the wood casing should not be a problem for me laugh.gif

you see, its not the wood that affect it. its the speaker itself.

the car speaker are designed to be used in car, and designed to be used with car audio enclosure. if you still want to use them at your house, it will work, but it doesnt even sound as nice as in the car. unless youre very lucky.

it's like girl using boy shirt. can work, but not nice isnt it.

it seems like i wont get any better sound quality using car speaker, maybe will bring over the speaker at my hometown, its been abandoned at there for almost half a year since after i came KL to study sweat.gif

it is a Creative 2:1 speaker, all plastic casing, and the woofer not really strong enough, and with plastic casing, the bass are very loose.

Why not use studio monitor instead of car speaker for better SQ?? But of course the cost is higher than PC multimedia speaker.
*
actually was planning to get a budget 5:1 for my PS3 for gaming and movie, since i'm looking for budget/entry-level type, sure must sacrifice some SQ, i get for what i paid.

but the sonic gear enzo 7000 everywhere also dont have, edifier r501 dont have optical input.

want to ask, when i use my earplug, i feel like the sound are not balance, sometime more bias to left and sometime more bias to right, how i rotate the jack that connect to my laptop also no use, it is my ear not very fit the earplug?? hmm.gif

BTW, my earplug is those cheap one, RM28 sonic gear earplug that can be found in most of the IT shop.

You listened to 1 song or tried all ?

There's a few possibilities, the driver kinda rosak, wiring problem and maybe it's your ear ? No offense, but ask your friend to listen the iem and see what he/she says.

i on itunes and listen to all the songs in my playlist, but the imbalance is not that obvious, just that sometime abit to the left and sometime to the right.

I really think Enzo 7000 is good choice for movie and games. Just look at the RMS. Do you put your PS3 at living room??? No wonder any mother would object if they see unnecessary (for them) thing that take a lot of space especially at the living room.
*
enzo 7000 is 5:1 around RM450 with optical input, the best around that price range, other 5:1 with optical is about RM1k rclxub.gif

my PS3 and LCD TV is at living room and i can find plenty of sweet spot in living room to put the woofer, better than my mom, old and bulky VCD player also want to keep, DVD player MUST be free gift, they dont even know how to see the spec, she keep many useless things in the house i also havent say her leh.... shakehead.gif

Never bring them out if we are going to buy tech gadget or any PC product, they will be like "walao, thing so small cost so much, buy the cheaper one lah, their size is bigger too" doh.gif

That's why i always shop alone, no matter what laugh.gif

yes yes, shop alone FTW rclxm9.gif

but if the music or movie that you played got no 5:1 support it will play in stereo only

entry 5:1 maybe edifier R501 or sonic gear enzo 7000, enzo 6000, enzo 5000, enzo 4000, but they all got no USB support tongue.gif

just got the speaker that has been abandoned in my hometown, and i connect it to the headphone jack, but the clarity not as good as the TV speaker itself, but at least it has a small subwoofer, if i ONLY want to connect my subwoofer to the TV and combine with the speaker in TV, how should i connect? my TV got L and R and headphone jack, i think headphone jack is out since it will automatic disable the TV speaker when connect, buut if i connect L and R (the red and white jack) it will disable TV speaker also doh.gif
