thanks bro narkon & friend for last week COD brows.gif
the black things sound nice, don't need CMSS and EQ.
now kinda "fixed" the L/R problem with another 3.5mm cable but it's too short.

i guess best setup for square-ish speaker like S730 is use stand to stack them higher or hang on wall (to ear level)
sub just place it in front of a wall with left right almost equal length like this:

I don't get what you are trying to mean here.
Klipsch 2.1 now is already very rare, hardly can find one, unless display unit.

Onboard SC vs Stand Alone SC is not much different nowadays if you only listen to 16-bit 44.1kHz FLAC or Audio CD without DSP and EQ tuning or you not make recording or produce music. But if you insist on gaming then go for it, SC can improve the performance and sound quality of the game.

true, play around with player & settings first before spending upgrade.
recommend foobar2000 as it support many plugins that can be customized thumbup.gif

edifier signature = bright sound, logitech signature = boomy bass.

well, Edifier S-models sound natural to me (stock setup) rolleyes.gif

M3300 and Z4 which has better treble and more bass?
Z4 + X-Fi Titatium = overkill?
*

Z4 lose because don't have real tweeter & probably midbass (brass instruments & deep male voice) are heavily rely on the sub & make it busy all the time.
but i don't like M33 sub, side firing sweat.gif haha

I dont know why .. today went to get display unit of Klipsch gmax , since everyone talking it like a legend ... but I was kinda dissapointed .. currently my sis is using m3300 ... so I listen to it quite sometime... after I bought the gmax.... yes ! bass is there , very deep and punch even I turn bass level to 40% .... but the clarity , i think the gmax is not as crisp , clear as m3300 ...I feel it is very annoying , the vocal , not as clear as m3300 which i listen to ... maybe I have an alien ears that differ than others ... or maybe the gmax which I bought is display unit , so quality not good already ? dont know... hmm

the good thing about GMX is adjustable
i usually adjust it face high, very high.

put it on table, you stand up. lower down your leg a little by little.
do the same for left-right, you will found the sweet spot smile.gif
