doh.gif im from kelantan... brows.gif...u got the point there...gonna go audit by myself but i need some tips to choose for good speaker...i cant trust my ears much...cz almost deaf from listening to ipod everyday.....dunno which brand are good..i only know that sonic gear is not good...n my budget is lower, it is RM280(there it go...i raise abit the budget) cz i wan 2 change all my pc peripheral.. shocking.gif

what u can do is, choose 1 or 2 of ur favorite song, the song contain clear vocal and some bass, then download into ur ipod or handphone, then go there play and audit each of the speaker that u target, listen around 2 or 3 times to each set, slowly adjust treble and bass to find that sweet spot (not G spot), then u decide which is nicest to u... (but i dunno they allowed u play ur own song or not), if not, u hav to use ur own "skills" to audit using theirs songs.

sonic gear so so only, my divoom voom2 better than a lot sonic gear models which much more expensive, i was shocking.gif at that time when i auditing...

if edifier, i suggest u go for S series, but RM400++... for M series with RM200++, u go audit, cant comment much if u read my comment at other topic...

altec lansing, err, really cut cost as a lot of ppl said, vocal and bass not so nice if compare to last time, unless u go for their high end stuff...

RM280 budget for speaker is still low, u will get what u pay for, dun expect too high, skip those expensive model, later u get poison only... tongue.gif

if u hav RM500++ to burn, got a lot can target, creative T3, aego and etc etc...

Ok, since my laptop probably doesn't support 5.1 and I lazy to go find an external soundcard (also, extra cost = moneyflies.gif that I don't have), I decide to just massively upgrade my current 2.1 speakers (specs here: DENN D-102 admittedly ANYTHING is probably better than this...). So what would you all recommend for 2.1 speakers for music? Budget is RM400 and below (preferably below), and I listen to a wide variety of music-- classic rock (Metallica, AC/DC), punk, a cappella choir (Tallis Scholars), instrumentals, classical music, orchestra, operas etc. So again, am looking for speakers with clear, crisp sound, decent bass and treble. SQ trumps everything including looks. For me, the best speakers I have are Altec Lansing ATP3-- but I can't move it from the house desktop or will kena from the other users (dad).  laugh.gif So is there any speaker out there nowadays with better sound than AL ATP3?

Am considering Edifier C3-- sound seems ok to my ears. I can even tell the difference between mp3 at different bit rates with it. Also, the guy in the audio store said that Edifier R501 sound quality not as good as Edifier C3? I dunno true or not since 2.1 would be kinda difficult to compare with 5.1? Comments, guys and girls?

if u wan SQ, go for S330... cool.gif
