    Dayton Audio speakers for Car Stereo instead of HT

    There's nothing inherently wrong with oval speakers in actual usage (yes, there are theoretical problems with the shape and variation of resonance and frequency response, but usually not within the human range of distinction). The reason you would want a 6x9 is for enhanced bass, but if you have...

    Advice on Bluetooth Speakers

    to be very honest, some of the "pill" type solutions are very good (as long as you don't need bass below 55-75hz). The rev. 2 UE mini boom is incredible for $99 (rev.1 is like $60), and the full size UE boombox (the one with the carrying handle) actually does goes down to 55hz, which is as good...

    Best 2.0 computer speaker for 50$-100$ usd?

    A good value alternative for the daytons are monoprice 6" and 8" bookshelf speakers http://www.monoprice.com/Product/?c_id=109&cp_id=10904&cs_id=1090407&p_id=8251&seq=1&format=3#specification...

    New speakers

    Dayton BR-1 (self assembly and soldering required) and a higher powered T-amp will do great (I prefer 50w/channel but 25w will do)

    Thoughts on Def Tech SM450? Good value for $250?

    right, but they are neither dipole (actually i think bipole is the word i was looking for) nor active woofers (passive radiators... same as a bass port or vent with a more controlled response).

    Thoughts on Def Tech SM450? Good value for $250?

    Def tech speakers are a bit iffy. They are famous for not disclosing the true F3 and F10 on the lower end of their speakers however (IE the SM450 does NOT have a usable response at 24hz like they claim). Definitive made their name in dipole speakers and speakers with integrated side firing...

    The best portable audio solution for the money?

    the big jambox is supposed to be pretty decent - gets very loud and rivals the bose soundlink but for up to $150 less when on sale or refurb. From the reviews I've read, the UE boombox supposedly is bassier and louder than both but its also much larger. Not sure what your definition of portable...

    Best 2.0 Computer Speaker Setup?

    Take a look at the audioengine A2. they punch well above their weight/size/cost when it comes to small desktop speakers If you have the room to upsize, your best bet would be the audioengine A5 or emotiva airmotivs (4, 5 or 6), or similar active studio monitors. Keep in mind 2.0 bookshelf...

    Moved 5.1 surround into living room. Help me w/bookshelfs for bedroom?

    In case people are still following this, and don't want the pioneers, here is a list of passive bookshelf speakers that i've run across with very solid bass (ie F3 approaching 40hz or below): Cheapest: Dayton BR-1's Mid: Wharfdale Diamond 10.2's and Monitor Audio BX2 or MR2 expensive...

    Where do you buy internal speakers?

    http://www.quietpc.com/kama-bay-speakers first result when i googled "5.25 pc speaker" its unlikely to be great, but definitely better than nothing. You may be better off getting a mobile speaker like the jambox or foxl and taping it to the top of your pc tower or monitor.

    Full Range

    the Emotiva airmotiv 6 is a good start - you're really looking for the bass extension, and the emotiva's have it (43hz @ +/-1.7db) However, they're still not going to get you into subwoofer territory (IE 30hz). I have a pair of monitor audio RX2's which hit 40hz +/-3db, but i think the...

    T-amp & Speakers suggestion

    One issue with a T-amp + bookshelf combo is that it won't reach the same level of low end bass that the klipsch can (due to the lack of a dedicated subwoofer). The closest you will get within a reasonable budget is if you get a pair of dayton BR-1's.. but even then you will only get low end...

    Inside AMD Sources Say AMD Withdrew from BapCo Because Bulldozer Can't Compete

    That was the only quibble i had with the article as well... Maybe AMD initiated with the pretense of GPU performance, but their main objective was to hide bulldozer scores? I personally hope not... competition is very good for us as consumers

    Best USB soundcard?

    I'm aware of that... have taken a look at the fubar... but I really want a 5.1 since i have a 5.1 set, AND i also do live mixing on my computer, which requires 4 channels and a lagless environment. So anyways... was reading further on the x-fi... seems like the lag is a function of CPU...
