Aego M has a soft bass? You don't know the potential of this baby yet. With good cables and source, this baby has the potential that can shake your house floor. Another plus points for the woofer is that it delivers accurate and punchy bass for a wide range of music. Of course if you listen to mostly Techno/Club songs, then Aego M is not really suited for you.

The shop you refer to is Best Price Computers located at #05 (Level 5). When you head up the escalator, it's the first shop you come to, on Level 5. Yes the Edifier S330 is confirmed $129 (RRP), normally the boss will be kind as to discount approx $5 or so, that's why I mentione $125.

Like the MP300+, which carried a RRP of $119, but I got $105 discounted as I purchased 2 units. The S330 for $199 was the D version with Digital Input(s). Prices here are in SGD. Forex is approx 2.38 to RM.

Well, not all PC speakers have treble & bass adjustments. The Edifier S330/S2.1M does not. The Creative Gigaworks T3 does not. So do the superb portable Edifier MP300+. No treble & bass controls.

Honestly, we tend to "misuse" treble & bass adjustments. As I said, the primary intent is to correct for frequency anomalies and/or deficiencies. Not to "boost" beyond what is necessary to achieve a sound that is "nice" to us. Obviously such (PC) speakers have limitations, and equalization should only be used to cater for the missing frequency spectrum (whether it be low/mid/high frequencies). Frequency response is greatly affected by enviromental factors such as speaker placement, dampening/reflective materials in the room, etc.

Listen to a Thiel CS2.4 and you will be shocked how deep is the bass from the 8" woofer - it extends down to a staggering 33Hz!! Trust me, you will NOT require a subwoofer. There is ZERO equalization on the Thiels, just one well integrated and well made (metal) tweeter/mid range and one 8" woofer and a passive radiator. The Thiels convey music as it was meant to be - pure unadulterated, sound. Means if the recording sucks, you are essentially listening to crap...
I have not compared the Bose C3 to the Creative T3 side by side, but I have listened to the Bose C3 many a time (thru friends), and though the Bose sounds "good", the sound is highly processed. Bose uses sound "correction" (i.e. equalization) to enhance the output, so the sound from the C3 isn't clean. Bass cannot compare to the T3. It's loud, but not deep or tight.

These days, any decent onboard audio will drive good speakers relatively well. Yes, it's important, but when a speaker is well made, it shines with a decent sound card. Today's HD audio on notebooks and namely desktop motherboards (Gigabyte's implementation of the Realtek HD889A Audio Codec with a superb 106dB S/N is one example of an excellent on board audio) have come of age. They are very good indeed.

Creative demoed the T3 vs the C3 recently, and to say the least, the T3 won hands down. It's a world of difference, and this from reviewers and audio critiques. You can Google it if you don't believe me.

Not all  manufacturers quote S/N ratio. Generally, don't playback any thing while connecting your speakers to say a MP3 player. Turn up the vol to max, if you hear "hiss" coming from the drivers, the amp's S/N is relatively poor. Normally anything above say 90dB+ is considered acceptable. Best of amps/sound cards exhibit over 100dB S/N ratio.

I hear virtually no hiss from my T3s when max vol (not playing anything) - put your ear next to the driver in a quiet room. There is no such thing as zero hiss. If it's zero, means system is off. Even the Edifier MP300+ has very minimal hiss at max vol.

I recently decided to install a car amplifier for my faithful Perdana V6. I bought the Sony XM4S (50w x 4, but it is bridgable if you need it to drive a subwoofer). I've lived with my head unit's built in 50w x 4 for a long time. Decided it was time for an upgrade.

Paid RM1k thereabouts for all the wiring and the XM4S. My rear speakers are Sony 6x9"s and the front, separate 6.5" mid/woofer and a 1" tweeter.

The end result was something did not expect. I was shocked how much difference it made to the quality and clarity. Tremendous! I used to have to increase bass +6, treble +5 because my head unit's stock amp (though rated at 50w x 4) was clearly insufficient to drive the speakers well.

I now run the head unit to flat! Bass +0, Treble +0 and the output is so much cleaner, mids clear, and highs distinct. As audio fidelity in a vehicle is greatly affected by lack of bass, I had to compensate that by boosting the bass on the Sony amp only for the rear 6x9 speakers.

But I am terribly impressed... Overall I'd say 100% improvement.

I decided to buy the Sony amp though it's more than twice the cost of a conventional Brother's 4 channel amp. Money well spent. And truly, good systems can do without (necessary) equalization.
