guys..i have been googling lowyat.net for sumtym now but i still can decide.. icon_question.gif

for gaming (60%), movies (30%), music (10%)..which one should i get? a M3300 or V4121?

some say M3300 good for music for it clarity but not for movies..

V4121 quite a punch in bass but lack of clarity..(is it SO bad in music playback?)  sweat.gif

so..for the same price tag (RM230+/-) which one? or should i consider others? M3400 maybe?
*
VS4121 lots distortion at high volume too, M3300 suit ur budget.

Thanks for recommendation. But seems like every1 in here favour Edifier speakersĀ  smile.gif
I thought famous speakers are like Creative, Altec Lansing and etc? Sorry noob hereĀ  tongue.gif

AL currently don even have good 5.1 speaker, the old legendary model already phase out wink.gif & for Creative u need to pay higher price to get a better 5.1 speaker.

hye there guys. I'm planning on buying a 5.1 multimedia speaker, but I can't exactly choose one since I'm such a noob in choosing speakers. My budget is from 300 - 500. For your info, I'll be using the Asus P6T deluxe's on board sound card.

Most of my friend ask me to go for Edifier r501 (RM399), but I'm kinda interested with Logitech G51 though it's way out of my budget with a current price worth RM650.

So can you guys suggest me one that better for me (a metal; speed metal to be exact and rock songs fan). The quality of the bass sound will be the major factor for me. I'll be also using this speaker for gaming purposes (COD and FAR CRY 2).

Any series from any brand will be excepted as long as it is certified by you guys. Thanx

My Personal taste Edifier DA5000 sound better than Logitech G51 wink.gif

hmm, i do not remember what the price of G500 is. but it should be around DA5000. its bass sounds great, ive tried once in creative showroom. of course, despite gigaworks terrible amp characteristic, i still recommend it if u are using it for gaming and movie. DA5000 sounds great, but im a basshead so i think it lacks in bass department. even a S530D subwoofer is much much better than DA5000 despite it is a 2.1 system.
*
Well... for me like thumping bass too but not heavy tight bass for movies, too much humming bass in a small rooms might decrease sound detail.

So i revised the price list from a shop at Imbi and find out that they're selling the G500 at RM850 and the DA5000 worth RM600. So regardless my budget, which one I should go for in terms of the price-quality ratio.

One more thing is, I'm quite sure that G500 will have any problem producing sound in higher volumes but how with DA5000? Like I said before I'm a metal songs fan, so maybe you guys know the level of volume I prefer the most. So, does DA5000 have what it takes?
*
well... imagine loudness 5 speakers hooked the sound is killer, works great with electronica and metal tracks as well as with action-packed games and movies. well soft music need boost up the treble a little bit. but I do agree 530D sound better, but... u miss surround sound experience & yet price quite near to Aego M.

i have rm500 but i still dont know which 5.1 speaker should i choose.. so hard nowdays.. aiyaa.. only enzo 7000 supports optical under rm500 (based on my knowledge).. optical is really important.. it's like hdmi for audio..
*
Optical is juz slightly enhance ur audio quality, u also need a decent sound card & of coz see how far ur system can perform.

I think maybe you misunderstood. My previous was about the DA5000. I dunno bout S530D's performance since I was focusing more to the speakers within my budget. How much is the S530D anyway?
For me, DA5000 is a much better speaker i tested both Da5000 and R501 mk2 side by side.
*
Agreed DA5000 better than R501 MK2, S530D price RM7xx.

thats y i suggest him a E3100. personally, i'd say, edifier only offer great bass with its speaker that has treble controller.
i.e. R401, C3, S530D, S730D, E3100. laugh.gif i dunno why, but seriously, those speakers with treble controller are good for me.
dont u agree? i shouldnt have bought myself a M3300 that time, no treble controller! laugh.gif

lol... treble or bass can easily tweak using EQ.

y like dat? now im confuse dy to buy high end edifier or not...

LMAO..... doh.gif doh.gif I think ur fren choose the wrong song or poor mp3 quality?
I set the S530D + Audigy 2 Gold setting SW +8 Bass +4 Treble +4 volume 30 the punch strong enough vibrate my balls laugh.gif. If volume at 40 fuiyo my mouse started to jump on table, perhaps the woofer futher away from my table.

p/s when the volume at 40 make sure ur neighbour is not at home.

i dont think so....i use my own meizu player with amp,without amp,then use onboard sc....im not new in audio n i think im not that stupid to use poor sound quality mp3 to test a speaker...

i know at home better since we can place it nicely and use oor own sc which is far more better than the shop one...but atleast if  we try normal without any add on, it should be ok...

but seriously the bass is not that umpph...altec mx 5021 bass is more umpph...

err...maybe the wire not plug properly or maybe defect?  sweat.gif
i need to try s730D...hope it wont disappoint me....  smile.gif

Haha, gd thing not cheap, cheap thing not gd is all i can say. No offence boss. NGBH is the lyn seller from Low Price Shop. They hv branches in SS2 and Subang Jaya SS15. Low Yat is still the best place for audition, they got almost every speakers there. may be you can audit both Logitech Z5500D and Edifier S550.


I google & notice Z5500 Control Pod have lots of problems.

To me Sony and Samsung is not really real hifi, tho they branded themselve that way. Thats why some ppl like to refer to real hifi as high end audio i think.

Z5500D never had a problem with the pod in 3 yrs.

Juz asking my fren Z5500D Control Pod warms up in a short while, no big issue rite?

btw the Those branded Home Theater best buy without DVD player.
