    Need advice upgrading speakers/sound card

    I suggest springing for a pair of Tascam VX-5 monitors. Sound absolutely amazing. You'll NEVER go back to "computer" speakers. Hook them up to your existing sound card then consider which route to go for a soundcard.

    Might pull the trigger on an NEC 2490WUXi, owners, how do you like yours?

    I have not seen the BenQ but I bet if you get the NEC you will put it as your 2nd display or sell it. I have not really done any color critical work yet. I am considering ordering the NEC calibration package. Out of the box I have no complaints. Black is deep for a LCD. I went from a Dell 1905...

    Might pull the trigger on an NEC 2490WUXi, owners, how do you like yours?

    I am so glad I didn't buy a cheaper, less quality display. Got it yesterday and the only thing I have done is turn down the brightness. Photo's look absolutely stunning with detail that almost takes your breath away. Web surfing is great to. Oh, I also managed to get a bit of work in and updated...

    NEC LCD2490WUXi unofficial review

    I received this monitor today. Absolutely stunning out of the box. No dead/stuck pixels or other issues. I have not had a chance to calibrate. I may just use free software to do this but I am eyeing the NEC package. I agonized over which monitor to get. By the time a person drives to the box...

    NEC LCD2490WUXi unofficial review

    I promote my own business with flyers. I can assure you that (some) folks will not pick up a B&W where they will a color. It's not the reading of the flyer, for that B&W is fine - it's the initial eye-catching of the color that makes the difference.

    24" Display Purchase Challenge

    Or you can buy into all the hype about those "terrible" TN based monitors and do what I did. Buy a Nec 2490wuxi. http://www.necdisplay.com/SupportCenter/Product/?product=a46240bd-a846-4de7-b644-bd7f0b7e6ece

    Might pull the trigger on an NEC 2490WUXi, owners, how do you like yours?

    Ordered from Provantage. At least they have someone there you can talk to and the price was about the best I could find. If I was willing to spend about $100 more I would have ordered from CDW as they have a record of good service. I have no experience whatsoever with Provantage. It was shipped...
