Need a recommendation here guys. Looking to get myself a replacement for my dying AL ACS45.1 and considering my budget, i wouldn't mind spending in the range of RM400 for a good pair of 2.1 speakers. Any recommendation here?

I am not a bass head so, bass is not going to be a priority but of course, having it is an advantage. I am in no means, needing to maximise all the budget. Looking for something that is going to be value for money as well as performing well.

At first, i am looking at purchasing the AL VS4121 as my friend had one and they sounded good to me. However, considering the mix reviews on the new Black Version for the 4121, i am not sure whether i still wanted that. I am currently considering the Edifier C3. How good is that? And there are people that are saying the S330 is better than the C3. How much difference between them? Any other recommendation?

Thanks xk2. In your oppinion, how is the S330 better than the C3? I mean, why would you say its better?

Wow..Thank you so much for your oppinion bro. Well, i will be testing it in a week or 2 at LYP. Just wondering which shop have both of them for testing. I have listened to the C3 before and it impresses me. Until i came across a lot of reviews/oppinions mentioning that the S330 is a much better buy compared to C3. Well, i am a gamer + music lover as well. Looking for something that will be good on both sides Anyway, as said, probably gotta test it out myself before making a decision but thanks alot for your oppinion

Thanks for the oppinion as well. Gotta ask them to put both on the floor to test i guess Does Edifier at LYP allow us to test it? Do they have both models? Gotta find a shop that have both of them to test them out though.

Well, just gotten the C3 instead yesterday Tested both of them at ALL IT, Ikano and kinda like the sound of the C3 more. So i picked that instead. But thanks for your help anyway

Now, then i have another question. How long do we need to burn-in the speakers?

Well, initial test (before burn-in) was that my previous AL ACS45.1 seems to suit my taste more. Bassy when you need it but also crisp clear. The C3 wise, the bass are not that good as compared to my previous one but treble is good enough for me. Pairing it with my Audigy 2 though. Not sure whether i need a better sound card or not

Alright. Thanks alot. Will start "burning" it tonight and see whether the sound are better or not Weird thing about the C3 is that the damn remote control have 2 volume buttons. I wonder why

Yea, coming to my third day of burning in at the moment. Gonna turn up the volume abit more tonight and slowly burn it. Hopefully it does not dissapoint

Well, at first, i thought the remote was so weird, allowing me to control left and right side speaker seperately. Until i realise, they are actually controlling the same thing. Oh well, better than nothing

Well, i tried them side by side before i made my purchase. Tested them at ALL IT, Ikano. Pretty sure they can do side by side testing in LYP as well. I prefer the C3 more. But many people had been recommending the S330 which at the same time, aint bad either. That is why the oppinion varries and no one can tell you which one will fit you more. I am no bass head, thus, i have chosen the C3 which sounds sharper to me, with less bass as compared to the S330.

Anyway, just an update. Burned my C3 for about a week now and starting to feel the difference. Bass is much better compared to the first time and starting to enjoy it very much
