lol - I was more interested in the amp... looks like a Rotel or something......nice... :)
 
Lol at the above comments, they're regular hifi bookshelve speakers not studio monitors. Due to me always being in the study (my hifi is in the lounge) I built a second system intergrated into my computer. The source is a RME 9632 soundcard (rrp £350/$600) Rotel 1062 stereo amp (rrp £600/$1000) and Totem acoustic Dreamcatcher speakers (£500/$850) with mark grant cables. I use lossless flac from foobar2000 running off 4 250GB samsung spinpoints in Raid0. The PC is inaudible from where I sit with it under my desk and contains a 7800GTX @ 500/1400 and X2 4400+ @ 10x250 with 2GB of mem.

I'm very pleased with the system so far :) I just need to make some speaker stands to raise them about 7" so the tweeter is mroe inline with my ear.
 
I knew it... Rotel!! good stuff. :)

Nice OC on the 7800. What brand of GTX do you have?
 
Nice Rotel!

I have the Rotel RB-1070 separate amplifier for my computer speakers - Onix Ref 1.

I'll post pics soon.

the inevitable question: why 2 surround sound systems?

Klipsh has an amp problem, took 3 years for it to show up the first time. I got the z-5500 set while the promedias were at repair for $200 shipped. Ran both sets side by side for a few months then the amp problem again, ordered another set of z-5500s. The logitech amp is actually a little beefier and runs the Klipsch center and sats better then the promedia amp. End result: I can watch movies or play games on either machine and the two logitech sets cost me less then the promedia did.
 
With that setup I hope you have good air flow between the amps... Heat build up will fry the amps. I had a tripple 680Z sub setup just like that... The top sub fried due to overheating.

680s must run hotter? the fins on these are just slightly warm to the touch when in use.. that or my ambients are just lower
 
hamm3rhead, have you beat with 3 z5500, but you got me on the triple 2005, only got 2 2405 here. Pics are coming after I get a refund from BB

I also find that the z5500s don't give out that large amount of heats which is a nice thing.
 
It's just not fair. Your peripherals cost about 10 times as much as my computer did, and about 20 times more than it is now worth!
 
hahah whatev, firfox all teh way, more importantly: is that my DESK i see there? yayayayay for being in the screenshot. thats nice :D

oh i changed to the black apple keyboard since i took that pic! tadah!

I considered 2405's but I figured these would be easier to budget :) so do you hook all 3 z5500's together for 15.3 surround ? :)
 
lol, nope.

Ones downstair for my other pc, other is for console(s), and my own pc upstair. Maybe I should try doing something like that...

I think I may return one of the monitor 2 get 2 smaller ones for the sides...
 
man..how do you guys fund your monitor buyage? i have one 2005fpw and that was a huge hit on the wallet as it is.
lottery perhaps? :p

What kind of mounting brackets did you use to hang your phone to the wall and what is the texture of your wall. Link please.
 
that's an odd request 0_o. . . phones? walls? huh? hey, where can i order a dell 2405fpw not including the main dell site? none of the major computer sites like newegg or tigerdirect and such seem to have any dell monitors
