    What kind of computer speakers do you have?

    I use to have this ridiculous Klipsch 5 speaker system with a sub. That died on me and got two Klipsch speakers and a sub. Well, the right speaker just went out and I'm tired of this bullshit. Is Bose even worth the money?

    I have Bose speakers. I paid all of $99 for them. I had another system with a sub, but it was complete overkill. I like to rock out while I work as much as the next guy, but I don't need to rattle the windows and piss off the neighbors.

                          I just have a creative 2.1, it sounds pretty good.

                              I love my little Edifier set. They sound pretty damn good for their size and price point.

                                      I have my computer connected to my stereo (Denon avr-3802 receiver, 2x 300watt cerwin vega ls12's, 2x 100 watt cerwin vega speakers - rear speakers. I forget the model, 1x 150 watt JBL center speaker and 1x 200watt cerwin vega sub) connected from my creative sound blaster ZX with a TOSLINK (optical) cable. Overkill? yes, but fun. lol

                                        No speakers any more, Audeze LCD-X phones instead.

                                        I used to have the B&W MM-1 but they burned out and I never bothered to take the new pair they sent me out of the box.

                                        Bose is shit by the way, you can do much better for less.

                                          Usually just use my Bose headphones when working.
                                          On my main computer I have a soundbar and sub that are meant for use with a tv. It sounds great and fits nicely over my monitors.

                                              These are mine



                                              Harman Kardon SoundSticks II

                                              Made the pick since I listen to most of my music when online.

                                              Guess I own them since 2005 or so, tough to match when it comes to full and crisp sound.

                                                Home stereo is insane but computer nothing too crazy just good enough to jam.

                                                  The prices you are posting for speakers are really high. I get a lot of my gear through group audiophile buys like at Massdrop.com

                                                    Quit buying "pc" speakers or any of those other cube systems like that.

                                                    Receiver + 2 Klipsch RB-61 bookshelves + a proper klipsch or paradigm sub = total everlasting musical bliss.

                                                    Cube systems and theater-in-a-box systems (including kilpsch) have low life expectancies... only good for gramma's occasional benny hill DVD

It used to double as my theater room but now it's just my office/gaming room. Made the basement into my dedicated theater room.
                                                      is that dual 15" sub? or one sub channel in the shakers and other into the sub? stereo sub? or mono setup?

                                                      This sounds very interesting. Which series of reference did you get? I had the 6's in back, dual 8s in front.. sex is what it was, pure musical sex. Adding shakers almost sounds like it would be too much

                                                        Made the pick since I listen to most of my music when online.

                                                        Guess I own them since 2005 or so, tough to match when it comes to full and crisp sound.
                                                        my neighbors couch-surfing cousin had a pair of those next door, he used to crank them all the time thinking they were the best, til they blew up haha, I have to admit, had a nice sound for their size. amazing what sound can come out of plastic shaped just right

I said my receiver was an Onkyo 808, the correct model # is 818. I used to have an 809 but the HDMI board failed. Also had a 609 in another room that failed due to the same issue. Supposedly the newer models have fixed the problem. At least I hope so, I don't want to have to set all this shit up again.

Sometimes you dont want it on so i can just go up and flip the amp off. Fronts are the 8 inch (rf82 is the model i think)and surround backs are also the same 8 inch. I have their smaller bipole surround speakers for side surrounds as that is all i could fit. I have some pictures ill post later when im not on my phone.
                                                                                  Interesting. Ok, so it's in stereo then. Wouldn't you then effectively lose any sub frequencies in the other channel when the shakers are off?

I said my receiver was an Onkyo 808, the correct model # is 818. I used to have an 809 but the HDMI board failed. Also had a 609 in another room that failed due to the same issue. Supposedly the newer models have fixed the problem. At least I hope so, I don't want to have to set all this shit up again.



                                                                                    This is beautiful man! Very nice setup! Have you looked at a Pioneer Elite for the amp? I'm partial to their high wattage and high current design. Plus, I just loved their MCAAC setup and fine tuning of the EQ for each source, channel and speaker. Not all are created equal though, so to rival the Onkyos and HK's, look at higher tag Pioneer Elites (SC-87 and SC-89).

                                                                                    How do you get any work done having that nice setup there, teasing you, begging for your attention haha

Seemed to have major problems with the network related stuff, and they released an app for it that was completely useless on android. They basically stopped supporting it once the next years model came out. Compared with my denon and onkyo, which are both several years old and still receiving the odd firmware updates. I know the amps in the pioneer are bulletproof though and it sounds great. I think my current pioneer is a 1326k, which is a special Canadian only equivalent of what they sell as the elite vsx-53 in the u.s.It is several years old too so im sure they've probably improved their network and app stuff by now. I was just pissed I had to pay for a third party app to control it. I was using its zone 2 feature to run speakers out on my deck so I needed something that worked reliably using my phone when I was outside.
                                                                                            That Canadian equivalent was the same I had. Very little in terms of difference. I was not aware of the app support issue.. thanks for pointing that out, I'll be sure to check that if I ever get another one.

                                                                                              I then picked up a Klipsch Promedia 2.1 set. They broke down after a year and a half.

                                                                                              I picked up a Bose Companion set 3 years ago, and I have no complaints. Running strong, crisp highs and low lows. Fills up my loft nicely as well.
