I'm planning to get the SR605 to pair with my PS3 but I'm not sure which speaker to use. Any suggestion? Prefer 5.1 or 7.1 type of speaker set. Budget around RM2k.

Thanks for the info, Bro. Will check it out.

Thanks for the info. What is the price like?

Thanks Bro. However, this speaker is not the 5.1 type. Just a stereo speaker. Any recommendation for 5.1 speaker?

Probably below RM2k.

Wah so cheap, why don't you do a bulk buy for us?

Went down to KL to look for my AV set. Had decided to get the SR605 but unable to make up my mind on the 5.1 speaker. Had tried out the following :

1. Jamo 606 : RM1800
2. MS Carnival : RM2000
3. Whaferdale Crystal : RM2500

Any sifu can comments?

Got. I took the brochure. Will scan and upload later. How's the Jamo? Ok kah?

Yeah, that's right. The price quoted is without sub. The sales guy told me no need sub also can because got 8" bass on both side.

Yeah, I know what you mean. The sale guys played the same source with 2 different setup. One with the cheapo htib and the other with a decent speaker set like Jamo, you can hear the differences. But compare decent speaker set like Jamo, Whaferdale, Mordaunt Short etc...cannot differentiate leh....

Added on January 14, 2008, 3:54 pmI went to Harvey Norman in Pavillion to see. Got other Jamo's speaker but not sure the model you ask. Can't help you on that as I already went back to Penang already....

Yeah, I saw at Senq Sunway Pyramid also. But the SR605 is selling for RM2700 there. More expensive than Harvey.

Aiyoh...the more I hear the more confused I get. I thought I already made up my mind on 605 but now don't know already.......

Anyway, I found 1 set of Wharerdale Cyrstal (CR40x2, WH2 center and surround) for RM1680. Quite a good buy but not sure if can match the 605 or not because the shop only have Denon. This price is almost same like the Jamo 606. Another choice will be the Mordaunt Short Carnival 9 for RM2500. Which one will you go for?

Thanks for the tips. Don't the pricing for this model. I asked Desa before. they told me CR40 already obseleted. no more selling.

Penang always more expensive. The cheapest I got so far is RM2800 from Watts.

Watts is at end of Perak Road (near Anson Road). SenQ is selling around RM2700. Actually I'm thinking of driving down to Singaopre to buy.

Really??? Ok. Will check it out.

OK. Will probably go tomorrow.

Is it the Jamo S606? I found similar package at HN Pavilion @ RM4300 with free Monster Speaker cable.

Some people said adding step down transformer will add more noise to the signal. That's why some people buy those filter to reduce the noise.

Yeah, support Onkyo.... Will get my 606 soon......
