Hey guys, the fuse in my woofer has blown somehow due to power failure a few days back.
"T1.6 AL 250v" is written on the fuse, so I guess that's what I need, tried search for it, but no luck.
Know where I can get it?

Well, since I am here, let me do something which is long due.

I bought a set of S530D a few months back after quite a bit of research. In fact, when i was at Sri-Comp,
I still haven't made up my mind about whether I should get the S330 (Which look smallish), or S530D
(which I have to fork out an extra RM300 *if not mistaken), or may be the C3
(which looks nice to me blush.gif appearance wise).....

But of course I ended up with the S530D. Well, frankly speaking, RM700 for a set of 2.1? Walao... It has got
to perform, that's what I was thinking to myself. I literally drag the set of speakers from sri-comp to my
car, heavy as hell, and I think it hurt my car suspension too tongue.gif

Well, upon unpacking the speakers, my first thought was "Holy cow!! That's a huge a55 speaker!!" It is heavy,
and it feels very very solid. Lifting up the woofer proof to be a challenge, and of course, it is damn heavy and solid.
The sheer weight and size of the set, somehow tells me that my money is well spent.

After hooking the speakers up with my macbook, a doubt came to my mind. Since Apple never boast about
the built-in sound cards of macbook, should I expect less from my new speakers? hmm.gif But this is an expensive
set of 2.1, should I expect more? hmm.gif did I place the woofer correctly? hmm.gif

You know what, once I loaded up Ironman, I have no more doubt. I can only say, S530D exceeded my expectation.
It was such a surprise how a 2.1 set can satisfy me where a 5.1 z5500 (i still have it) can't. I know I can't compare
Z5500 and S530D like that, but on a personal satisfaction level, S530D pwn my z5500 connected to a pc with audigy
soundcard (may be something wrong with my z5500? hmm.gif ).

Until today, I am still a pround owner of the S530D. My housemate occasionally came to my room, checking out my
speakers. And sometimes, you can hear my room fire sprinkle system rings when I slightly (yes, slightly) crank up the volume.
One more thing I am surprise though, that Edifier is actually a china brand?

Frankly, I used to think Edifier is just another brand like sonic gear, cos I still own a set of M3300, and I didn't
quite like what i hear from it. But S530D change it all.

This is how my setup use to look like, the only change now, is I've moved the subwoofer to where the
UFO-like multi-plug was.

No longer there, the showroom serve as the collection point now.
U have to collect it from Kepong office or by courier service.

Since I am in JB now, then I guess I wold get it by courier service then.
So Edifier, how do we proceed?

Does anyone try to use S530D Digital optical input?
See like it cannot support digital signal from my Philips PCS805 because the digital signal from the soundcard is AC3/DTS format..

I am using optical connection for one of my macbook. No problem getting it to work. Except VLC in mac gives me cracking sounds
sometime. So I just use analog for my main macbook.
