    Best 2.1 System for $100-150

    Man, just get the Logitech Z623 and call it a day.They're not nearly as bad as people around here like to say they are. While those pioneer speakers someone recomended are probably the best sounding loudspeakers you can get at their price, a decent amp is gonna put you out of your budget, and...

    3840x2160 32" monitor on the way

    Actually the opposite is true. You will get BETTER performance on a 4k screen since you can run games at 1920 x 1080 with zero scaling artifacts/ no loss of image quality whatsoever. On a current 2560 x 1440 screen you're stuck at that high resolution so when some new game drops that a GTX 780...

    Audioengine A5+ arrived! Me no likey! Now what??

    A set of monitors with room controls oughtta do the trick. like KRK's rokit series. There's a HF level control on the back that you can set to -2db. If you're like me and think the KRKs are ugly as hell you could go for some mackies instead. Similar performance. They also have the a 2db HF cut...

    External soundcard with ASIO 2.0 support needed

    Go for the desktop konnekt 6. I got mine for $130 new on ebay and it's been performing like a champ. Sounds great- no audible noise, great stereo imaging, clean/powerful headphone amp. Low latency too- i'm pretty picky and i can play drums on it fine.

    KRK RP8G2 + RP10S vs JBL LSR2328P +L2310SP

    May I ask what led you to this conclusion that the jbl and krk subs are overpriced and underperforming?

    Best Sub $300 PCIe or 1394a ASIO Interface to buy? Large Samples

    the desktop konnekt 6? funny you mention that, because that's the guy I was planning on swapping out my native instruments interface with for the extra headphone power before i saw on sound on sound's review that it had 11.25ms latency vs the komplete audio 6's 2ms....

    KRK RP8G2 + RP10S vs JBL LSR2328P +L2310SP

    eh... on principle i will never pair a set of monitors with a sub from another brand. Just doesn't blend... If you know of any monitors in the same price range as the setups i mentioned that can go down to the mid 30s +/- 1db at 110db w/o a sub I'm all for it but don't think any exist. Anyways...

    Need a 2.1 system for laptop/PC. Music will be the main use

    go for the klipsch promedias. basssss. Il take them any day over ANY bookshelf size speaker w/o a sub. Even, say, a pair of genelec 8020b's. Without the bottom, music has no soul.

    Audio setup advice for DT770 250ohm

    return the 250ohm version and get the 32 ohm that or you could get a xonar stx. bangin card or better yet, return the dt770s and get some (32ohm) denon ahd2000s. A lot more bass, (deeper too) if that's what you're looking for, and it just sounds better in every way. It'l sound bomb with the...

    Best Sub $300 PCIe or 1394a ASIO Interface to buy? Large Samples

    huh... all i can say is my native instruments komplete audio 6 is pretty darn quick. supposed to be one of the fastest usb interfaces around. definitely gets the job for me and I'm pretty picky with latency, particularly when programing drums with pads. I've used it with omnisphere which has...

    Actually lion made the mouse movement a little better in my opinion. It's closer to windows now but still a little too much acceleration. I don't mind it when I'm using a tracpad but for mouse movement it drives me nuts.

    Mac users input requested.

    Hello? Boot camp? Done. Osx lion is pretty nice, but mouse acceleration curve is so bad that I prefer windows whenever I have a mouse. I have the newest 15" mbp with a 2.2ghz quad core i7, 4gigs ram and some radeon 6 series with 1gb of memory. You definitely can't max out crysis but...

    I live in a fraternity house so they'l be in my 18'x25' bedroom, and like I said il be mainly using them just to listen to music, but I will also be doing a little bit of mixing on them.
