oops, didn't notice this before.Quote:
They are Mission 702e, bought them a few years ago for about £200 I think, have a really nice sound to them and cos they're floorstanding you don't have to find a shelf for them. Take up a lot of room though.Quote:
whta speakers are those? i'm looking around for some but really i don't know where to start in terms of brand and price. Looking to get good sound but low price. ideas?
oh and a nice sound card would be the audigy 2 or whatever it's called but for that price u could just buy a new motherboard with a nice soundchip on it :)
These are obviously home audio speakers rather than computer speakers, but if that's what you're after brands like KEF, B&O, Mission, Yamaha all do good stuff. Best bet is to look at the amp that'll be powering them and try and get a good match.
Amp is a Dolby Digital Sony STR DB940, but I only really use it in stereo unless I'm watching DVDs. [/b]
thanks.
umm, my receiver is a technics, kinda old, but has great sound (most probably do lol).
i may get a new one but im not sure yet, when i start pricing speakers i might also look around at receivers :)
Logitech Z-640s
Really nice 5.1 surround with a woofer.

2 dell speakers, and woofer.
deja vu.

Logitech x-620 6.1Surround sound...

Good times....

Same wolfmight, if you use winamp audio enahncer and tweak the bass these things will push a huge amount of air for the price....
Good speakers, I plan on building something a little more extreme this summer though.....think 100 watt sub and 80 watt surround sounds....
I wont , ever, buy a speaker on a plastic box.
Its a princible, Im a guitarist and I think the Wood
jas something better to say to the sounf than Plastic.
Besides, most of those Logitech and similar Plastik-Surround-Setting
Speakers looks so tiny that im afraid I'd lose them on the flat
if I had the, he he....
I got a pair of old Mission speakers, not really good sound but
I got decent headphones for that.
The Plastic Sets a'la Creartive Labs and whatnot,
they are really unimpressive, and the marketing + hype really
seems to works on the kids.
:cool2:
Then you are missing out on some great sounding cheap speakers....more fool you I guess...
Yeah, right.Quote:

the second stero is normally only eveer turned on for house parties or when im really drunk.

gemini x1
220Wrms At 8 Ohm Bridged Mono
110Wrms Per Channel At 4 Ohm
85Wrms Per Channel At 8 Ohm
http://www.btinternet.com/~violetg/speakers.gif
gemini gsm 1250
Amplifier’s Output Power: 100 Wrms
Frequency Response: 40Hz-20kHz
Impedance: 8 Ohms
even though the second setup is alot more powerful and is designed to be pushed up to loud volumes it does not sound any where near as good as my normal setup. general 10 mins of listening in a medium sized room gives you ear ache.
I was always told a 40 watt amp and a decent pair of speakers can fill any room in your house with sound.
