Opps, had been refreshed!!??
yesterday i post here to ask what is the difference between Edifier s5.1 and s5.1m. i juz knw tht the main difference is the size, RMS and of course the price. Besides these, is there any difference in sound quality? The price difference is about RM100, so which one is more worthy to get? Thx for your help. |

QUOTE(munky @ Jul 6 2007, 05:46 PM) can anyone recommend me a 5.1 speaker that uses only 2 speakers and a woofer ? Very funny..haha, and not funny also...the reason you want 5.1 is surround if only two speaker, how you get that surround...if you want two speaker only then get a 2.1...Why waste money... Is there any difference compared to a 4 speaker/satellite system? But I saw a sony brand home theater...DAV-FXG9K...is a 5.1 but can put it in two speaker or put it to 4 speaker...price??? Rm2600... QUOTE(killdavid @ Jul 6 2007, 06:42 PM) A very happy M3300 user here. Its the best in its class, that is the <RM250 bracket. Of course some of the gurus will say it is still lacking in this dept and that but come on lah ....its only RM239 don't compare with more expensive ones lah. Some will say M4300 is better, still both are strong products from Edifier. A bit agree with you but I hear M3300 treble is not bad...If for my music totally out for me....R401 bass seems better but discountinue, so can't recommend to you...luckily I get one b4 discountinue...I hope he can choose which suits him...different people different taste....can't tell with words for good quality speaker, test it to believe it...hehe This post has been edited by xterminator: Jul 6 2007, 10:01 PM |

The next one (e.g. 5.1) means the woofer unit. |

Hi everyone,
Currently I am looking for a speaker to use at my workplace (desk). I am leaning towards 2.0 speakers. Budget is rm250-rm300. Mainly using my speakers for listening to music (mp3) and radio (online). Gaming is out of the question since I am not supposed to play games when I work. Movies, well I might when I have no work. So bottomline 95% music. I went to a shop at BJ Complex (Penang), the salesman quote me RM180 for M3300 cause its a display unit. Do you think its adviseable to buy 2.1 compare to 2.0? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Regards. |

QUOTE(LIW @ Jul 8 2007, 04:13 AM) Hi everyone, a good sounding 2.0 usually is bookshelf size speakers, but it usually advised to put it on speaker stand because of two reason: the side is bigger thus it might take space in your table and the woofer in 2.0 is responsible to produce the bass so u need to put on speaker stand for better sq and wider separation. a good 2.0 is never need a sub woofer to do the bass job, they even can have better bass than those with sub woofer.Currently I am looking for a speaker to use at my workplace (desk).

then maybe you can consider edifier M2300???though slighty more expensive than M1310,but its a great improvement overall.somemore it fits your budget perfectly.with much more powerful bass,i think its better to pair M2300 up with the 360.
remember to test it out 1st.trust your ears most |

Hehe, yeah that's truly a let down for creative's speaker.. because some fo them they are using the BASH amp and it produces a lot of heat.. or maybe it's because of the electricity that blow the cap.. but actually the problem isn't that serious too..
We have some sifu here to repair them too bcos normally it's bcos of the blown cap, if some channel doesn't produce any sound, it's 90% caused by the loosen cable inside the amp (they have cables for every channel to connect to the amp). Just open it, and tighten the cable, or fix their position by some UHU gum or what.. But still, not many ppl are willing to open up the amp unit as it's a bit risky (void warranty? im not sure hehe).. Anyway, it's still a let down point  |

Well, another thing was very important is the soundcard like Pcwork mention before...If you get a very good soundcard it may even sounds better like Hi-fi...and somehow why he use the word DAMN CLEAR?
 If that is clear then AegoM is wat? It is the best way to go there and hear it by ur own then compare.... This post has been edited by xterminator: Jul 24 2007, 06:16 AM |

QUOTE(McRyan @ Jul 24 2007, 06:40 AM) wah, double attack, i surrender!! Hemm i myself own vs4121 lastime (3 years ago).. well, yeah, for trance music it's good, bcos of the overwhelming bass. I doubt it's good in movie too, yes u'll hear those great explosion and great sound effect, but sometimes i cant hear the conversation inside the movie, bcos the treble and mid is just too weak. For music? well, wat i mean is vs4121 is da best at tat price range, my opinion la lol  (sorry to say that, but the above is just based on my experience on vs4121). Pairing it with a soundcard (i pair up with A2ZS lastime) will kinda 'remove the clothes' from the satellite (this is the best layman description for the sound from the satellite ), but still it's too weak. The treble/bass ratio just isn't right.Anyhow, still back to old saying, sound is subjective, as long as you like it and it suits your ear, then it's fine  enjoy it bro This post has been edited by nicholas_1213: Jul 24 2007, 10:23 AM |

Haha ... don't attack him some more la. I guess having the Altec Lansing logo on the speaker itself is a huge endorsement when it comes to deciding. If the buyer is happy with the product I guess it is a win-win situation.

Ello all pros
I would like to get a 2.1..As I was wondering around MidValley yesterday..I saw Sonic Gear Armaggeddon A5..I liked it..the sound quality is nice (for me =P) and it meets my budget I visited another shop in MV..and saw a blue colored version of the A5..and I totally fell in love with that =P And now I just found out that the blue version is not Armaggeddon A5..instead it is the BT3 (Blue Thunder 3) and it is slight cheaper than the A5.. How are the 2 different in each other when they look exactly the same and has the exact same specs? Specs from Sonic Gear's website QUOTE(Armaggeddon A5) Total Power 75 Watts Subwoofer: Bass and Treble Volume Control 6.5" Long Throw, Low Frequency Driver Satellite: Trendy Hard Metal Finishing Design 2.5"+2.5"+1" Tweeter Feature & Charateristics: Audio Input: 3.5mm jack Bass, Treble and Master Volume Control Frequency Response : 35 Hz - 20,000 KHz S/N Ratio : >80 dB Distortion : <1% THD (Std 300 mA peak-to-peak source) QUOTE(Blue Thunder 3) Total Power 75 Watts Subwoofer: Bass and Treble Volume Control 6.5" Long Throw, Low Frequency Driver Satellite: Trendy Hard Metal Finishing Design 2.5"+2.5"+1" Tweeter Feature & Charateristics: Audio Input: 3.5mm jack Bass, Treble and Master Volume Control Frequency Response : 35 Hz - 20,000 KHz S/N Ratio : >80 dB Distortion : <1% THD (Std 300 mA peak-to-peak source) Please help =/ |

Really interested in buying im not living in the same area with you for sure. but im sure these "babies" are available in some big multimedia shops. even sometimes,, shops who sells ipod accessories also sold JBL spyro and JBL spots. about the Creature and Encounter, these are "not-new" products, hence to find not so easy. but apart from other two Spot and Spyro, these Creature and Encounter easily found in big computer shops instead. my suggestion, ask people from the same area with you about local computer shops. cause i believe, finding "basic" JBL products is not hard nowadays... even imo it's easier than sonic gear...

Sonic gear blue thunder 3....BT2 better than BT3... all units above are all in 2.1 configuration, if ur currently used speaker is in the "not recommended" list, please don't feel angry, because is only my tested opinion, if u feel good, thats all right, please don't shoot me..... Added on August 14, 2007, 2:31 amHere i share my limited experience with reader seems like many user are look so serious about the bass response when choosing speaker....buyer always trusted the Spec listed by the speaker manufacturer, especially the bass response, many speaker in the price range from RM200-RM400 claim that the bass response as low as 30 or 35hz...but actually not...go to download sony sound forge 8 or 9 (if no money, just cxxxk it only) from www.sonymediasoftware.com and generate the sine wave from 30-100hz to test ur speaker, u will exactly know ur speaker bass response...here i give rough idea who had listen to those speaker before... Altec VS4121 and ATP3 strong bass response from 60hz-100hz, below 55hz silent dramatically...Altec MX5021 bass response strong at 40-65hz, 30hz-40hz still can hear it, exactly the spec claimed...others test urself if interested...u also can save those sine wave as MP3 or other format and put inside ur MP3 player (good quality MP3 player is needed, bcos ayam brand player almost cut off frequency lower than 60hz), so u can test the speaker bass response at the PC shop before u buy...recommended test frequency are 30Hz,35Hz,40Hz,45Hz,50Hz,60Hz,70Hz,80Hz until 100Hz...so if u find that this opinion is totally useless after u read it, just ignore it, and please don't shoot me...

for the sinnewave. edifier have a program called sound generator too.
no need to use mp3 from different frequency, just open the software and enter the desired frequency level. software very small hence convenient. for the JBL encounter price, usually near the Soundsticks II price. about 180USD - 200USD. |

i don't really choose M3300 for gaming.
the ATP3 might perform better if it's used for gaming. anyway M3400 might be preffered upon M3300 if used for gaming. generally (incl. me) if i want a speaker for gaming, i found the speaker which produce most loosen bass like BT2/3 or Vs4121. but as im listening to music more, M3300 would be better. but some people want to have both clarity and bass boost. so both can be achieved, but not on M3300 for sure, although its clarity really impressive on 200 tag. |

I am in audio industry and listen to a lot of speaker..
Use to buy a lot of ATP3 for friend, etc... the other day want to buy an ATP3 for my self just for my laptop when I am home.. end up with Sonic Gear BT3... I try too many Altec Lansing so just want to try some other... another reason I bought BT3 becoz it use all standard connector.. after 2-3 week listen, tuning, fine tune EQ of it.. I come to a conclusion about BT3.. answer = it suck.. suck big time.. the satellite use 2 same driver for mid.. without any engineering reason.. 2 same driver use to place together to achieve throwing the sound far .. for a near field PC speaker, drive the 2 same driver together with same sound.. it doesn't work... another thing suck big time for the satellite is, it produce a lot of Plastic sound.. it supprise me a lot becoz the box are made from wood and kind of heavy compare to other speaker.. like ATP3.... Damn disappointed with it.. thinking to add in some thing into the box itself to reduce the plastic sound... open it up, damn it.. 3 driver in the satellite.. NO CROSSOVER.... all loop through... except 1 little capacitor for the top Tweeter... ah.. damn pissed.. Now I running the Sub to my TANNOY passive studio monitor... of course can't compare the Studio monitor to the BT3 Satellite.... one of the MOnitor can buy 4-5 set of BT3 set... The Amplified signal still sound fine to my monitor.. but still some unknow weird sound from it... hay... who want the BT3.. I sell it cheap cheap.. |

two mid drivers place in one satellite actually not a weird design, Altec Lansing MX5021 and Eacan A600 also like that, but the sound quality is totally different from BT3, such design has advantage, it can produce a clear and high charity vocal if it is designed in the right way, but also can spoils the whole system if it sounds bad, even a single midrange only(like Altec Lansing VS4121)...i want to buy BT3 before because the design look attractive,the size is big and the woofer is heavy and wooden, but after i heard it, i found that it not sounds as i expect..............about the crossover u stated, i think u probably couldn't find crossover in any PC speaker satellite, because almost all PC speakers use "active crossover" instead of "passive crossover".
Passive Crossover using the resistor-capacitor-inductor (RLC circuit), it using those component characteristic to filter the sound frequencies, it only low down certain frequencies level without cutoff completely, so it usually sounds more nature in default, this kind of crossover can easily found in most 2.0 home stand speaker, but this crossover normally is heavy in weight and consume a lot of space, so PC speaker normally using active crossover instead of passive one... active crossover is using the IC to set the crossover frequency of the driver, this kind of crossover windy used in PC speaker because it can cutoff high and low frequencies completely so that the woofer unit only produce the bass sound and pass the mid and high to the satellite driver, but it leads to another problem, many PC speakers found that the existance of crossover gap, which means certain frequency is very weak due to over filtered, it probably due to its own design problem and the material characteristic of the driver, so normally PC speaker need to tune the equalizer to compensate those weak frequency band.

hehe....BT3/ATP3/VS4121/Evo7 + Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Value Users Here ^^".....
Lowest to highest Price : evo7 - > ATP3 - > BT3 -> VS4121 Highest To Lowest Bass : VS4121 -> ATP3/BT3 -> Evo 7 highest to lowest Clarity : ATP3 -> VS4121 -> BT3 -> Evo 7 Value Buy : VS4121 -> ATP3 -> BT3 -> Evo7 About the evo7 , i think this speaker aleadi can satisfied most of the users with RM140 +- Budget Users..... And the atp3/bt3/vs4121 will be betters compare to others RM1xx 2.1 speaker.....i recommends u guys better topup few $ to buy a ATP3 if u got RM1xx budgets. Trust me , u won't be regrets after u buy ATP3. ATP3 the sound is consider as clarity and the bass is really reality and enough. If you want highest bass rather then reality.....VS4121 is good choices. I still remember thats day when i back to house , i heard a loudly bass from the area near my house....i wondering which house so dare challanging the bass with my old ATP3. but after i arrived to house , i noticed that bass is came from my sis VS4121 thats she bought at that day. And the bass just open no above half volume also very strong aleadi. About the BT3 .....i really no recommends...because last time my sis own a BT3 and i try to figure it out , i quite dissapointed on the performances and i rather go for ATP3 then BT3. |

Between ATP3 and BT3, BT3 is better. I had tested this 2 speakers. ATP3 satellite cant produce the clear and better human voice as BT3. You better go to Lowyat test in your own coz diff ppl has diff taste and needs |

yeah im another M3300 supporter for 200 pricetag.
although it doesnt sounds boomy (as for gaming and movie) but the bass is tight and the clarity is excellent. when watching movie. however, loose bass is important, but i rather have the clarity cause all the detail will be spoken up. better try out yourself, diff individual diff taste... |

QUOTE(amsleeping @ Aug 27 2007, 07:46 AM) Hello! I am in need of new speakers... can any1 recommend me a good 2.1 speaker or 2.0 wan?... I am in UK at the moment and unfortunately I cannot go stingey with Edifier coz they do not have it here. Sonic Gear is out too... Most UK forumers are crazy with Logitech and Creative... so i decided to turn back to the sagely Msian advice instead... For UK pls callI will be using them with my Dell laptop to watch videos, listen to music and play games. Hmm... breakdown of usage will be: 30% watch TV shows (dun reli need the bass), 30% watch movies 25% listen to music 14% play games 1% listen to MSN nudges Also, i move my laptop around alot and would prefer a portable (i dun mind how heavy) setup. Lastly, I am a bass addict but the darn houses in UK have cardboard-quality walls and the neighbourhood is always dead quiet... so I cant go too crazy on the bass. My budget is rm300... give or take. Speakers I am eyeing (price in UK):- 1) Logitech Z-10 (rm390) 2) Creative Gigaworks T20 (rm280) 3) Klipsch GMXA2.1 (rm380 - 2nd hand) or promedia ultra 2.0 (rm250 - 2nd hand, rm300 for new) 4) Altec Lansing XT2 (rm350) 5) Bose... havent looked into them yet The 2nd hand prices for the klipsch is juz a prediction. I found them on UK ebay. Those prices will be my highest bids... i think. Anyways, feel free to add any good valued speakers 2.1 or 2.0 to my list. If i had edifier R201 here.... it would already suffice. Thanks for helping me out. Please reply soon as the ebay auction is closing in 2 days. Thank you again! PS. this is all someone's fault for selling me those MylarThree IEMs... They have pampered my ears so much that I cannot tahan my laptop speakers anymore.... hoho United Kingdom CMS COMPUTERS LTD.

Anyway my application is under review... But no point if the Edifier prices in UK are inflated... Would rather get better speakers since the price-wow factor no longer exists in Edifier Uk stuff...

I'll Stick to 2.1 as space is a concern for me. I listen music + play games most of the time. I listen to instrumental music, guitar, ochestra... so the Clarity of the speaker r the most important to me.. (can hear every single detail) Bass not tat important... don really like BANG BANG music.  Can Any1 suggest me any good 2.1 Speaker? Creative? Altec Lansing? Klipsch (hell expensive). my 10 years old pc using Creative 2.0 but still sounds much better than my 5 years old Sonic Gear 2.1 My Budget rm 300 below. Sonic Gear out of my list... Will go lowyat later.. or tomoro to buy. |

QUOTE(clivengu @ Aug 30 2007, 03:48 PM) ha ha ha... yeah i really 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: Rm 500... meaning this Aegom (is this d brand? nvr head b4) cost more than rm 500? yeah..hell expensive.. I need to save money to change my monitor to LCD..n my system all need to buy new one.. cant spend too much on speaker itself 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.edited : Some type This post has been edited by nicholas_1213: Aug 31 2007, 08:22 PM |

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?

But Bose Companion 5 integrate a virtual 5.1 surround technology, may be you can have a test of Companion 5  |

it depends.
original 4.1 is always better if compared to "mix-and-match" 2.1 and 2.0 or whatsoever. it's because single 4.1 is manufactured to be like that. which means all is balanced. unless, you're comparing 100$4.1 and 1000$2.1 (differ case alredy) what 2.1 are you using now if i may know? |

hmmm...
to be honest, must say that the better is save money till about 200. i mean, ur Bt3 is around 200 right? if you buy something below it, there's few chance for you to satisfy to the product... anyway it's your choice... i may not know what suits you the best... but returning to the topic, Rm100, Altec 121i or Edifier M1310? how about it? |

None of us, me included have not listened to your dad's old Sony home theater system which your are making your selection reference.
Rather than asking us how it sounds, wouldnt it be more logical/meaningful if you could give this Bose system a listen? You could 'googled' for the review of that Bose if its available and that is all you have, someone's word. Music/audio listening is a personal taste/preferences, as what I like to hear may or may not suit you... The guys are really trying to help. I am NOT a No.1 fan of Bose system although I have listen to some of Bose products.I do own a small Bose speaker system which I select because I liked the sound.Price is NOT a bother eventhough it is 'more'.BTW, Bose fan in this forum is hard to come by I am sure if you were to select this Bose system, you would not regret the audio quality that you're going to get. Personally I think it would sound 'better' than that 'old' Sony System.. Good luck to your speaker system selection.

imo, logitech produce good sounds.
but the price is not proportionate to the sound that it gives.. that's all. if the price is cheaper, perhaps it'd be a good choice. (hard cause Logitech is a known brand today) just my 2 cents. |

Since u said it was orgasmic to listen to Bose, did u get that feeling when you are listening to your dad's sony + 5.1 speakers? Just as jazzy939 said, almost none of us heard your dad's speaker system, so it's very hard for us to comment anything about it. Again the same saying, sound is subjective. Therefore, trust your ear (after all, the speaker will serve your ears ) and get the one that suits your need |

Hi all,
I need  ! I'm looking for a 2.1 speaker, and the numerous options are giving me a headache I want it mainly for music. I listen to all genres, from orchestral scores which require good treble, to hip hop and techno with pounding bass. I also want it to give good sound for movies, especially those Star Wars type action flicks No gaming though. The brands i'm considering are Altec Lansing, Edifier and Sonic Gear. Any recommendations? I know its important to test the speakers with my own ears and choose what i like, but its difficult to do so when there are a dozen other speaker models blaring different tunes in the same shop. Edifier is the only brand i've been able to properly test, and i like the M3300. Does this model have any problems/weaknesses? I'd also like for the subwoofer to be of a reasonable size as my room is quite small. The AL models i've seen have HUGE subwoofers. My budget is maximum RM250 (but I might consider a more expensive model if you can prove the speaker is worth it )Thanks for the help folks |

Just bought myself a Logitech X-530...
Sounds good to me even when I'm using onboard sound... I think will soon upgrade to Audigy... X-530 seems good to me when watching movie and playing games... But when it comes down to listening music(I listen to classic), I felt it's too bassy... Hope this helps |

for me, its depends on the size of your room. let says you are living in a small room, 2.1 is enough already. However, if you want 2.1, you should be looking for a good one such as logitech Z series. if you have bigger room, then buy 5.1 or home theater. hahahaha

take out my very old.. amp spoiled Cambridge Soundwork 4.1 speaker.. plug the satellite to my unsatisfied BT3 Sub.. wakakkakaa... it sound much better than the Original BT3 Satellite..
it is only wt 1 x 3" driver compare to BT3 satellite.... it have much more higher mid high and sound more nature compare to the Ori BT3 plastic sound... although the cambridge using plastic compare to the BT3.. wood... anyway.. it tend to have lower high..tweeter sound.. but this is pretty normal since it only have 1 driver... Added on September 15, 2007, 9:43 pmBut of course.. 1 driver are good for nearfield application like computer spaeker.. since we sit so near to the PC... compare to the BT3 3 drivers....

Is it possible the volatage of your old speaker may not suit to BT3 speaker?
I means the BT3 sub may cant provide the enough voltage to your old speaker |

I throw it to the dushbin now.. Added on September 15, 2007, 10:05 pmBeside.. for ur knowladge.. if u loop speaker.. the impedance will go lower .. say.. u have 2 4ohms spaeker .. then u loop it.. .. 1 amp output.. go to 2 speaker.. it impedance will become 2ohms... very simple parallel Resistor logic... looping 2 speaker just the same like parallel 2 resistor.. this will bring harm to ur amp becoz it drain more power from ur amp...

So my ancient Logitech Z-540 4.1 speakers just died, so I need to go and get a new set of speakers. Since no one seems to sell 4.1 anymore, I've decided to drop to 2.1's instead (PC & Xbox360 are both in my bedroom, and can't really expand into a 5.1 anyway).
So I'm looking for a really good pair of 2.1 speakers. Primary is gonna be watching video's & gaming (PC & Xbox 360 will be hooked to it, Xbox is thru my PC Monitor as well). It must also be dependable. My Z-540's lasted the better part of 4 years, so I'd like them to last. I want to say that cost is no object (the constraint is more physical space in my room), but I don't wanna be too silly about it. Let's say I think it's ridiculous to go beyond RM700 for a 2.1 set. Though mind you, if it's really good I'll probably be able to convince myself. Right now I'm looking at: Altec Lansing FX 6021 I-Trigue L3800 Logitech Z-2300 One other thing that I'm looking for is easy availability. All three models above are easily available in LowYat. So, what do you guys recommend? Is there any other 2.1's that I should listen to. I know nuts about Klipsch and the other brands, so recommendations welcome. |

Klipsch GMX ProMedia 2.1, for gaming and movie too. If Z-2300, MX5021 and GMX Promedia is suitable for gaming. But if you're bass head, you may go for Z-2300. Just my 2 cent |

i got both M3300 and MP300...
M3300 used in hometown while MP300 carry around everywhere if i need it.... of course, M3300 sounds better in all aspect instead of MP300... but what i like from MP300 is that it has stylish carrying case which allow me to bring it everywhere easily... the design also looks much better than M3300. that time i bought it at very close price, now i know that Mp300 is designed for portability and design while M3300 is sound quality. depends on your need, i think both products are one of the best in that price and class range.... |

Hi evybody! I don't know if i post this into the right thread but i need to know which shop is selling this and what is the price.
It's Creative Gigaworks T40 2.0 speaker system. I need to test this unit and hopefully it's a bit cheaper than AeGO M. Anybody has tried this speaker before? |

Aego M is a very good choice for you, but it depends on what kind of music that u listen. If you are a basshead, then AegoM might fail to impress you. Then u can use the remaining money (maybe top up a bit) to get some decent soundcard. I heard from the review that Prodigy HD2 from the bulk can pair up with AegoM pretty nice. U may try that. RM685 for aego, and RM390 for the card. - mainly use for music listening - use on a computer - budget is less than 1k |

QUOTE(Qmage @ Sep 28 2007, 03:23 AM) I need some recommendations please, not sure to choose a 2.1 or 5.1, can't decide on which model either Aego M, no expections. I don't care what you're listening to. be it Techno, Trance, House, Jazz, Pop. it fits everything.- mainly use for music listening - use on a computer - budget is less than 1k you can always set the bass to level 3 if you feel theres not enough bass. |

usually low end speakers have that issue. How much u pay is what u get?
Maybe he test at the edifier showroom and no sound u go back u test on your your audio got also useless right. If u need a high end thing to use a low end thing means more spending $$$. If a low end works on any low end device means the speaker have good build in technology This post has been edited by aspire2oo6: Oct 1 2007, 08:02 PM |

what i suggest you do is get a mp3 song 1 with 64kbps bit rate another 192 k bps bit rate take your CD and test on their system there.
Our taste and your taste might not be the same. Like me i use optical for my audio it sound clearer and sharper compare to traditional cable. |

okay.
i read tru each and every posts and threads and i am really going crazy now. im currently trying to look for a 2.1 system. but doesnt really know how to cuz this is the first time im getting a 2.1 system. my budget will be below rm200 (or above?) but with a budget like that i dotn think i could get any of the recomandations models in here. im into gaming and music. tried out m2300 yesterday and it actually peforms better than the atp3, atp3 distorts at high volume. but then again, read tru some post where someone actually doesnt recommend m2300. i dont know. i really dont know. really going crazy now. thanks or should i get something around rm100? man i, am, crazy now This post has been edited by arct: Oct 3 2007, 02:20 PM |

(i was comparing all RM200 speaker listed here) fortunately, when listening to both of them, i understand what fellow forumer speaks and in the end i ended up buying M3300 that day... months later, i have an opportunity to test some speaker that i want to test previously (but no chance cause no shops did that). luckily, i was very impressed by the M3300 cause all the speakers i'm comparing to are not as good as M3300 in my ear. so finally, u see, i do not recommend buying speaker on what people say. but instead, listen to the speaker yourself... cause it's the best to avoid unsatisfactory. |

if u want to justify exactly how is the high.. mid .. bass of the speaker perform and don't believe other people said.. go n buy one spectrum analyser.. inject pink/white noise to the speaker.. let the analyser tell u the truth story..

well,you dont buy a speaker because of the spec,is it???you buy a speaker that will satisfy you most while fitting your budget...and,human's ears only capable of 20Hz-20,000Hz,whats the point?just buy which suit you most

20Hz?? I doubt anybody here can hear 20Hz in even 20db...
done some reinforcement to my BT3... add in some cusion to the satellite... open up the speaker.. found the top part like a Horn.. the sound traverl to the horn make the speaker generate some horn alike sound.. I put in cusion almost 80% covered the inside of the speaker... it improve on the weird horn like sound.. but still have some plastic sound.. I think is come from the plastic face cover plate.. thinking some way to insulate the front plastic in the next step.. |

i think 20db is still normal... below it than its harder...
i mean, when i test the software to "speak" 20hz, still can hear very2 low frequency... but then if 20000hz... i think its the one which is undoubtedly most ppl cant hear... i try on different speaker and i cant hear a single pitch! mine stop somewhere at 18khz i think... cause 17500 still can hear slight... dunno bout how u ppl... or maybe my speaker sucks,, and when i check this on the internet. "they" said average ppl also sucks at17000 and above, esp. when u grow older... |

dont buy speakers bcos someone recommend it. try to hear from it first then ask other ppl what they think and see whether it conform to what you think. dont do it based on other ppls opinion alone. its yours that really count.
Lacus - i saw one klipsch 2.1 selling in garage sale music thread for 330 or 320 if im not mistaken. thats within ur budget and its a good speaker. besaid - haha nice one. |

has any set of 2.1 comes at the range of 300MYR yet still giving a very good performance, initially set my eye on Aego, but its a lil pricey together with logitech z2300, edifier S2.1M, Altec lansing MX5021, most of them cost at atleast 400MYR up to 700MYR, i'm looking for something value for my money, if my speaker is not so powerful, i don't think i need a better card rite? on-board sounds 7.1 good enough? pls advise, thanks.
i use my speakers mostly for movies & musics only. |

Hemm, if u compare the performance / price ratio of AEGO M with other speaker, then u won't say that it's expensive, but in the other way round i use my speakers mostly for movies & musics only. The better soundcard gives you a better source. IMO it doesn't depend much whether the speaker is powerful or not, it's in term of the sound quality when u get yourself a soundcard.. onboard soundcard usually sucks bigtime. If for movie and musics only, u can forget about creative soundcard and get some other brand one. However, not familiar with good speaker around RM300 though.. |

But even that, it's much more upgraded sound unlike the usual 'multimedia' sound which we are used to. Let you have a little taste of hi-fidelity music.But all in all, he's quite busy recently, so he only cater customers not testers.

Hi guys, currently itching to upgrade to a 5.1 system, would the creative gigaworks G500 be good enough? Let's say by comparing it to Z5500, i know the bass of Z5500 is obviously more powerful, but i am more concern bout music performance, but at the same time i need thumping bass as well
. G500 or Z5500? Users of these speaker kindly give opinion lol |

Even S4.1 is without centre speaker, it still can accept 5.1 sound and reproduce the centre channel through front left n right speaker, unlike other 4/4.1 speaker. If your space is not too large, u won't notice the different with the real 5.1 speaker, save u some space too. sound quality definitely much much more better than the r501.

T20 and T40 consider is mid end speaker, Creative speaker can perform well if you have tune it by sound card or equalizer. I had a Inspire 2400 2.1 I still love this speaker so much.
While, I suggest you go test the speaker 'gao gao' at until you satisfy and differentiate which speaker is suitable to you just you decide to buy speaker because different people has different needs. This post has been edited by Faint: Nov 6 2007, 04:56 PM |

Buy at PC Fair or shop both also has its advantage and disadvantage. Lets say, you buy Altec Lansing speaker at PC Fair with cheapest price. After that you found that your speaker has problem need to RMA, where you should take to RMA?! Normally the seller at PC Fair they suggest you take to any shop that sell Altec speaker and the shop may charge you shipping fees. If you buy a shop, you can direct send your speaker to them without paying any shipping fee but the price may expensive than PC Fair price.

Ya, before I wish to test Z2300 before I bought MX5021! Unfortunately, the speaker available to test is only MX5021. So that time I just buy MX5021. Well, MX5021 and Z2300 both are THX certified speaker, but the Z2300 bass is 3 times powerful than MX5021. If you're bass head, you will love this speaker so much. But MX5021 also not bad. Of course, you need a sound card to tune your speaker!

If u are able to get your hands on Altec Lansing's ADA Series. They have enormous bass and value for money(i believe it's altec's best series). Unfortunately one thing is that it kind of a troublesome speaker because of the Spdif output. But normally its powerful enough to run as a 2.1 speaker without 4.1.

QUOTE(krixko @ Nov 12 2007, 01:36 PM) so for gaming and movies the z2300 is better than MX5021 Both also are nice speaker! Our opinion was just for reference, you better go test 2 of them before you purchase. MX5021 can use for ps2, its come with converter.then i guess i be going for the z2300 haha just 1 more question is the mx5021 can be used for ps2??? like the z2300 |

QUOTE(Faint @ Nov 12 2007, 12:10 PM) ADA series is good speaker especially ADA 885, but ADA series already discontinued, too bad yea i'm using ADA880 currently. Been using it for like 8 yrs and still no problem. Till these days i still dont dare to switch the bass to max because its far too high. Even running at 3 i find it already too annoying. Well as mention if anyone who seeks budget value speakers , try to look for a 2nd hand on ADA series(applies to 880 and aboves). The only thing is you need a tv decoder card to have a spdif output to get the surrounds working. |

If your room is big, home theater is the choice but normally ppl put pc 5.1 speaker...
If you already got home theater set just get a 5.1 soundcard or a receiver for ur com or dvd player.. |

WTA,
Between Edifier DA5000, Edifier R501 MK2, and Edifier MediaPro/AudioPro S5.1, which one is superior in gaming sessions, in terms of delivering enough oomph during explosions while still mantaining clarity. My usage would be split into 70% gaming, 20% music, and 10% movies. I dont have a fixed budget yet, but i'd like to keep it under RM600 if possible. If you are using/used any of the speakers before, can you give me a simple rundown of the speaker? |

you know i am a gamer at heart. G51 price is halve the z5500. and with that extra 600-700, i could opt for a better graphics card, or HDD.

If you don't require heavy bass, I suggest you take Logitech x-230, nice treble and nice treble.

FX6021 is very clear (maybe cause it got lots of tweeter unit) and sharp. superb for listening songs. but., 5021 is better when it comes to movie i must admit, because the bass made have different feelings from 6021, that make the boom suit the movie's needs... THX certified is another certificate to boost speaker's sale... cause ppl will thought got thx, will sound good.... |

SpikeTwo,
You could try to find the Logitech Z5300e. It's the smaller brother of the Z5500. Should cost about the same with G51 but it's THX certified. I think it has 250-300 watts of power which should be sufficient. THX certified usually means the speakers have been tested and able to accurately reproduce the sounds/music in George Lucas's films. Cheers, Ken |

Spike Two,
I think you could try to find the old Logitech Z680. The quality of the sound is just as good as Logitech Z5500 but the bass is slightly les solid for my taste. Last I heard they were selling it less than Au$300 per say, that is almost less than the amount to be paid for the Logitech G51. Cheers, Ken |

QUOTE(Faint @ Dec 9 2007, 07:53 PM) Bro, I just came back....hehe In PC Fair; the 5.1 speaker that only shows are x540 and big bro z-5500... damn disappointed. After that, i went to Lowyat Plaza and I found this speaker in ThunderMatch. After tested and compare with other speaker... My opinion is overall performance is ok, the design of sub woofer same with s750 's sub woofer, direct to floor, can on the sport switch the audio mode. Between x-230 and G51, I think x-230 is better than G51 in music. This is just my personal opinion, hope this won't offend any guys. how much thundermatch selling btw? how did u test it? game? hehe...no no...ur opinion is gold. need someone to really test it mah. online reviews can be crap sometimes.

Watt not mean how good, above all you mention those 3 speaker all powerful bass, but sometimes I prefer Atp3 than those 2..
The bigger the watt the louder your speaker and more expensive your electric bills... |

Thanks dudes for the input.
I'm currently using 45.1, guess the 3 speakers should be the right ones. I love hard bass. ATP3 is pretty old, 4121 I have no idea. And the 151i kinda cool but I doubt it will perform as good as ATP3. |
