what is the best among all this speakers:
logitech z4
creative S3000 I-Trigue 2.1 3000
m3300
s2.1m
c3
e3100

m3300 is best among all sub rm200 speaker.
s2.1m is best among all speaker below rm400.
c3 suit for gaming.listen music u gonna pick s2.1m.really outperform C3.
e3100 is budget speaker with good sound.

not recomend creative as the speaker above are much more value.
s2.1m pawn Z4 in my opinion,i have listen all speaker above

Can anyone else recommend a 2.0 speaker system? Budget is is RM250 and under (I don't want a 2.1, because this is for my small desk/room, and a subwoofer would most probably take up too much space)

Also, I have a question, I read that speakers sound better if put onto a speaker stand? Do I just buy the speaker set and a speaker stand from somewhere else and put them on?

Thanks.
*
2.1 wont be a problem,are u going to put subwoofer on the desk ? shakehead.gif usually we put the subwoofer on the floor to get the best sound.maybe u can try altec lansing VS2420,it is a 2.0 speaker,but sound quality i duno hmm.gif should be ok i think.

guys am thinking either to get a ProMedia GMX A-2.1 or Edifier S2.1M.

which best to go for and pros and cons between em ?

thx alot.
*
i advise u get s2.1m insteed of GMX,becoz personally i feel the GMX's treble is oversharp and quite annoying,s2.1m have very good treble and solid ,wellcontroled bass.

Was gonna go for the Edifier M3300 (239RM?) but I decided to up my budget a bit since I'm gonna use these speakers quite a lot and for quite a long time.

So I have some questions:
1. Which one is better in terms of sound quality? Edifier S2.1 (350RM?) vs. JBL Creature II (339RM?)

2. I'm not sure what the difference between S2.1M and S2.1D is. I looked up the Edifier website and it says "high quality Digital Input", but what is that? (Should I even be concerned with it?) (Also, are there any price differences between the S2.1M and S2.1D?)

Thanks!
*
the s2.1D u mention is this ? if yes,i will recomend u get the s2.1m becoz s2.1m is made to replace this model.in my opinion,s2.1m has better clarity compare to the old s2.1D.

below is the new s2.1D is also known as S530D.RM7xx

i also would like to know the diff between C1 and C3 other than price of about rm100. does C1 has the edifier's Electronic Intelligence Distortion Control (E.I.D.C).

as far i heard of the s2.1m is replace by s330 ? i went to lowyat all out of stock .... dunno when then available.

if compare C1 and s2.1m/s330 which to go for ? one is with ext amplifier and the other doesnt.
*
so far C3 is the most success model in C series,and S330 is actualy =s2.1m,they are sam e.so fast out of stock ? i remember tat last month b4 merdeka there is still a lot in ALL IT,so fast habis ? rclxub.gif

C3 compare to s2.1m is it ? well,in my opinion,s2.1m is better in terms of satelites and bass,if u wan the best sound quality among these 2,s2.1m is the right choice,u definetely wont regret thumbup.gif ,if u not trust me,u can go lowyat compare them side by side,the different is very obvious brows.gif
the C3's external amp very attractive is it ? brows.gif sound quality more important rolleyes.gif

bside s2.1m any others model ? tongue.gif

so far sub RM500 I only played s2.1m,klipsh promedia and mx5021,and they are pretty good,klipsh's treble too sharp,quite uncomfortable for me, sweat.gif of course ,u may go try other model biggrin.gif

below is my opinion for altec mx5021-->decent satelites,very powerfull bass,every thump goes deeply into heart laugh.gif
edifier s2.1m---->very good satelites,powerfull tweeter combine with well controled woofer thumbup.gif

QUOTE
all forumers here seems to be a big fans of edifier, any CREATIVE one?

good things of course will recomended by ppl tongue.gif creative depend on wat model la,their low end and mid range such as i trigue very bad if compare to other brand's speaker in same price range.

the picture above got 2 version,one is the default version which is called S2.1.
there is another version with digital input which is called S2.1D.
both of them share same looks.and different of them is jus the digital port.


The picture below is called S2.1m/S330,it is same thing actually .no different.at first it is called s2.1m due to its size ,becoz it is the ''youngest' brother in edifier S series 2.1 speaker.

. untill its second brother S530D and bIg brother S730 comes out,then only it called as S330 becoz edifier has 3 type of 'S' series 2.1 speaker in different price range and power. hmm.gif hmm.gif
