Speaker and Headphone Rigs Picture Thread

Not very complicated. I responded to atarione's post about his VU meters with a picture of my spectrum analyzer.

The little speakers are iLoud Micro Monitors for my MacBook Air.
It sounds complicated, but it doesn't matter, you probably deal with sound, those speakers are supposedly the smallest small active monitors in the world, probably the best.

By the way, these edifier r19bt came to me today, some redragon speakers broke and they can't be repaired, so they refunded my money.Normally they are not loud but the sound is really good, "warm".I listen to the radio station online and they sound nice, they even have bass.

Fairly Horribly uncomfortable and definitely "Worse" than the MDR-V6 headphones that replaced them... Sony DR-S3 vintage headphones, which I bought ENTIRELY becasue the Dead Kennedys wore them in video of the "Lost Tapes". These are sort of a pain because the ear-pads are glued in and I can't find any replacements and so far haven't been able improvise anything that well... hopefully can find a solution as getting them comfortable enough to wear would be great...

In fairness my MDR-V6's or 7510s are objectively much more comfortable and sound better.. but I still want to be able to give these more of a go.

Just got the new Koss porta pro wireless! Picked up some bigger pads (yaxi). They are awesome!

These should easily be the #1 pick when someone says : " I need computer speakers"
These beat the fuck out of the klipsch and logitech setups. They are shockingly good.
Interesting, I've never heard of this klipsch either(and their studio bookshelf speakers are also expensive), but ok, usually what I've noticed is that all those who switch from logitech 5.1 (their best 5.1 speaker is the Z906 right now, I guess) to these studio monitors mostly complain about weak bass.It seems that there are a lot of brands and companies that manufacture speakers.
 
Since the original threads were a little dated, I think it's about time to post a new thread. I also think it's a good idea to consolidate the two threads and have a separate discussions thread.

Post Your Speaker and Headphone Rig's
RULES:
1. If you want to comment, YOU MUST POST A PICTURE. QUOTING SOMEONE ELSES PICTURE DOESN'T COUNT
[DISCUSSION THREAD HERE] <--- quote and talk all you want in the discussion thread. The object is to keep the picture thread flowing and not littered with quoted pics, o/t chit chat, and red x's.

2. It has to be a pic of "YOUR" rig. Follow general [H] rules on posting. (hotlinked images etc will not be tolerated)

3. Large images are a good thing for picture threads, unless they are HUGE like 2560x1600. Let's keep the size reasonable but don't whine about 1280x1024 images. If you do whine, you MUST post a picture.
The only exception to large images is if your host is horribly slow, for those I will kill the image tag if it slows the page from loading. The link will be preserved though.

4. You have to read the rules.

Here's how I usually get better pictures: ymmv

1. USE A TRIPOD.
2. Try not to use a flash if possible and mess with the aperature settings instead (possible with tripod)
3. Have good lighting
4. Try not to use your cell phone or webcam for a camera.
The Adire sub is classic I almost built a sonotube, but couldn't find the Adire Shiva driver. Are they OOB in 2024?

Plus the modern SVS designs are quality for the price my SB 2000 does 18Hz @ 100dB.

Iirc, Adire Audio shutdown a long time ago but eventually some other entity picked up the ip. Not sure I'd trust the new stufff being the same and like you eluded there are a lot of modern sub options these days. For the price they were hard to beat. You could build a pair of dual tempest 15s for the price of a single sb2000. You'd need to amp them externally though.

The original owner Dan Wiggins tried to move manufacturing to South America back in 2007 which didn't work out and ended up shutting down. Not sure on the exact history on the new owners though.
 
There's a lot of other car audio brands that have pretty equivalent drivers as well these days compared to 15 years ago.
