I have exactly what you need.Hi.
So my speakers got jealous on my new Arctic 7 headset and decided to blow up
After searching for couple of days now realised that its hard to see witch reviews are sponsored and witch ones are valid opinions.
So heading out to techies here for help to recommend me good PC speaker setup max around 150-200 euro.
Space on my table is limited a bit so was aiming for soundbar or something witch could fit under monitor.
So far my top 3 picks are -Razer Leviathan /Sound BlasterX Katana and Logitech G560 but have not experienced any of them in real life so have no idea witch one would be best fit .
Any help will be much appreciated
I have exactly what you need.

Just make sure wherever you buy the Klipsch, that they are an authorized dealer. I got mine at Best Buy on sale for 144.00. These are the updated version of the 15M.

The amp is a BT receiver. All you need to do it plug the speakers into the amp, and connect with your rig with BT and done.IT also has a 3.5MM AUX on the back. I own this set up currently and it is NOT a toy. There is no tinny sound or lack of bass, or boomy bass, or any other little tricks.This is the real deal. Unless you need to pop your chair off of the floor, you won't need a sub with those speakers. They have plenty, believe it or not! Try it from Amazon. You can send it back free shipping if you don't like it. These little class D amps that are popping up all over are the future of amplifiers. They are now pretty clean. I used the vendor above because they are active in the Amazon customer section, and immediately replace or help to solve problems.
That set up will blow you out of a 1500' foot house. Used for a computer system, yeah, unreal. IF you truly need a sub, you can also buy the same amp with a sub output and get a Klipsch sub. No your ready for a night club. I'm not kidding. That little set up is that loud at volume.
I mainly listen to Jazz and Lounge, and I live in a 1200 sq house. I never get it over about 25% volume and at that level it sounds clean, crisp, and has plenty of bottom end and head room.
I just hate to see people buy those crappy sound bars and spend even more money when a set up like this can be your home stereo and your computer speakers all in one. I use my laptop to stream music all day.
My brother and I have been sort of audiophiles since high school, but not Audiofools. When he heard this, he was amazed. He has a Yamaha traditional amplifier and Paradigm bookshelf speakers for his fronts and a Paradigm sub. About 125 watts RMS per channel. HE couldn't believe the sound I was getting with this little 4 x 4 x 1.5" amp and these Klipsch bookshelf speakers.
His system was bought back in 2009: $2200.00
My new system: 185.00.
Look on his face: Priceless.
I have actually watched movies with it on my laptop and the sound is perfectly synced to lips and talking. It's BT 5.0. I haven't needed to do anything. BT 5 is a huge improvement over 4.2 and gives like 10 times the bandwidth, or something like that. BT 5 may solve those syncing/timing issues. A lot of people are using this system fir their TVs too, with no reported problems I remember. They are plugging it into the TV audio output..Bluetooth can bring a huge delay to audio, how did you get audio synced with this setup?
I'm not sure what BT the B&O supports. perhaps it's older generation. Now I have to order a BT5 receiver from China to try it outI have actually watched movies with it on my laptop and the sound is perfectly synced to lips and talking. It's BT 5.0.

do your self a favor and get a decent Class A/B power amp, class D amps are used to power subwoofers.
Incorrect. Class D is being used even in High-End amps nowadays. The tech has advanced.do your self a favor and get a decent Class A/B power amp, class D amps are used to power subwoofers.

Fortunately there are math skilled people who solved this problem. Look at Hypex Ncore amps for example. Ah, the article was actually about Bruno.High-end amps should never be used as an example of anything. That's a logical fallacy. Trucks loads of cash make just about anything possible and high end gear has almost nothing in common with other gear.
Read this article. The guy that brought class D to high end amps basically implies you should not attempt it unless you are amp Jesus with great math skills:

And by the way what makes you think High-End amps shouldn't be used as examples? They represent the finest technical knowledge that exists at the moment, some at no-cost-spared attitude. Certainly better than comparing to a 20 dollar Chinese T-amp. Which incidently are not bad either.
I'm an OEM partner with Hypex. Have you heard the amp in person?
You're either intentionally twisting things or confused. I said D-class technology has advanced and it is no longer something that's capable of subwoofers only. There are very good quality class D amp architectures available currently like the nCore and the extremely cheap tripath amps which may not be high end but are perfectly acceptable as computer desktop amps.I rebuild stereos and receivers quite regularly. There isn't enough shared components between affordable gear and high end stuff. Therefore using high end gear as an example to convince someone to buy something affordable, you are being dishonest.

Reading comprehension please.You did and are still making a poor argument. Nobody claimed Class D was exclusively for subs. Class D stereo amps have been on the market for quite some time now. People tend to say that because Class D has been used for many years for chip amps that sound like crap for music. And even though some good Class D exists now, it doesn't make the last statement untrue. Did the millions of fantastic sounding discrete class A/B amps and receivers from the late 60s onward just magically vanish off the market? No.
Lastan010 wasn't wrong. And if you ever heard a 1969 STR-6120, you wouldn't bother looking at any chip amps. You would be on EBay trying to get one.
do your self a favor and get a decent Class A/B power amp, class D amps are used to power subwoofers.
Reading comprehension please.
If you think class D AND AB amps haven't evolved from 1969 I'd have to say your arguments are not very tech savvy at all. If and when the most revered audio rewievers give extremely high evaluations to current generation class D amps I would say your opinion is just a personal opinion and you're entitled to one. Doesn't make it right though.
I have worked on audio OEM for years, mind you. Not repairing, designing.
I know that arguing with people like you is just a waste of time so I'll end the discussion here.
Audio is subjective. We aren’t talking about processors. Being tech savvy means nothing. Go to any audio forum. Everyone argues all day long about what sounds best. We don’t all like the same things, get over it.
The Amazon Chinese D amps are using the Texas Intruments 3116D2 chip.Interesting technology (that I mostly don't understand) -- do you have a reference for commercial products using these amplifiers? I'm not seeing anything on their webpage, thanks!
Great read. Thanks.High-end amps should never be used as an example of anything. That's a logical fallacy. Trucks loads of cash make just about anything possible and high end gear has almost nothing in common with other gear.

OK, I'd like to add a few words here that may not count for much since I'm not an audiophile. I read the vast majority of cinemas use JBL speakers. This is one of the reasons why I chose the JBL One Series 104. However, I've already said they're not louder than the Creative T20. So, if someone wants something louder, there's always the JBL 305P MKII.

I hear the 104s are nice for what they are but the cinemas use JBL M2 and comparable pro speakers which have nothing in common with desktop speakers The 305 has a similar design waveguide albeit a fraction of size. With horns, size matters. Well, also with bass drivers, size matters. And cabs. And.. you get the picture.OK, I'd like to add a few words here that may not count for much since I'm not an audiophile.

Just want to make a note that the new BT model of the JBL One Series 104 is the new model. Oddly enough, they're still lying about the size of the driver, it's 3 and a half inches, not 4 and a half inches as advertised.
Ah, that's why the originals are on firesale!
New ones even come in white... that hurts, though they're still pretty large for 'desktop' speakers. US$200 is in the range of their larger monitors.
I do wish they'd added a 1/4-20 mount on the bottom or back as a mounting option, as given their size I'd want to put them above a single ultrawide monitor or row of monitors instead of on the desk, but that would mean angling them downward a bit...
I don't know who to believe on this one but some say you should put them directly on the desk for better bass, others say they should be put on acoustic foam for better highs. In any case, I ended up looking in my boxes of "stuff" to find something to put under them. I put the speakers on top of some foam blocks that were laid on top of blocks of styrofoam.
My only gripe about these speakers (JBL One Series 104) is I'm not an audiophile so I can't truly tell how good they are. But a warning for those considering them. I read some Edifier sound much more "open" than these. And the 104 sound supposedly like they're inside a tunnel. But when I compared the 104 to Creative T20s, I had to listen to the same parts of some songs several times to tell the difference. Still, the 104 sounded more natural.
And maybe a "peculiar" comment about "good speakers". If they sound natural, there's something somewhat unremarkable about normal sounding speakers in that they don't seem spectacular. So, I don't understand why some people say they were "blown away" by how good some speakers are. Or somehow cried by just how clear-sounding some speakers were. I mean clear sounding systems from what I read can reveal flaws in the recordings that can make it somewhat unpleasant to listen to...

I'm thinking about picking up those Kanto YU2 speakers for my mobile audio (laptop/tablet/phone). My choices are down to the YU2 and Jamo 801PM. I ordered both from Crutchfield and will keep whichever sounds better. I'm leaning toward the YU2 because they're smaller. We'll see...My Kanto YU2 excel at providing a center image; get yourself in that third point of the equilateral triangle and the sound comes from the monitor in the middle, and that sweet spot is pretty wide. That means big, immersive sound from compact speakers, but they are a tad pricey if one's point of reference starts at the cheap 2.0 Logitech speakers on the shelf at Wal-mart.

The only "problem" which the original model was the cheap 3.5mm male to two RCA male cable (that produced a little static noise if you touched it). (Who knows if they replaced that by now anyway...)
