Any room to upgrade?

[skawttieboy]

So I'm currently using Klipsch Promedia Ultra's with an M-Audio Revolution 7.1 -- it's been a combination that has satisfied me for the past 2 years.

Nevertheless, I'm always looking for the next best quality sound, and have been kinda outta the loop as far as Computer Audio within the past year.

My question is: Is there any room for upgrade from my current setup?

I wouldn't really look towards new speakers (I'm pretty happy with my Klipsch's), but more so the sound card.

To help out, I game from time-to-time, but not enough for it to influence what sound card I'd buy. I'm mainly a Music/Movies type of user. I'm upgrading to the SN95G5V3, although I'd highly doubt the onboard will really matter if I already have the M-Audio card. Is there another card out there that might be better for music than the Revolution 7.1?

You can upgrade your satellites to klipsch bookshelves as seen in my brother's setup:

Those are Klipsch B2 speakers - about $200 or so at bestbuy or around $150-175 on ebay.

Pinipin, just out of curiosity, how do those Klipsch speakers sound?

My dad said back in the day, they were known for making good speaker........... but I have no idea.

The cheapest I could find locally was 300$ a pair which had the orange color woofer...

imo, tower, if you like the neutrality of the b&w's, you probably won't care for the klipsch...

they still do make good speakers (although not as good as 'back in the day'), but you have to like the way the horn tweeters sound... some people love them... i personally feel as if they are screaming at me...

as always, imo...

I feel that they sound very good. They image well and have very good midrange. They are excellent for the 120 I paid for them (and gave to my bro.).

Thanks for the info ccotenj and Pinipig523.

Hahaha, my sister's friend gave her the exact same desk and chair and it's terrible.
