Modded Edifier S730 (capacitors, opamps, EMI filter etc) with modded x-fi, can pawn those RM5000 Pionner or Sony Home Theater anytime and it's on analog line out.

In a sense Vic is right, buying something that has potential and modding it can give better sound than more expensive stock systems. IF you mod it right. and IF the modded system has POTENTIAL in the 1st place.

Buying a RM100 multimedia speaker and modding it will never give better sound cause it has no room for improvement.

Of course if you have a >RM100k home cinema setup, anything below than that no matter how you mod, it will be hard to surpass the quality of the RM100k's system's sound.

But if both have a RM100k system, one is modded and one is not, of course the modded one will perform better.

The thing is, if something is already priced that high, it should already be using top quality components.

If you have a 100k setup and found out there is place for a higher quality component and mod it... I really
