WANTED a 7.1 Speaker system for PC

[azaamDAsquad]

i need a creative or some good brand 7.1 speaker system.. hmm.. ne1 have idea to sell his 1 or find me 1 :yes: :yes:

[systemoad]

Creative makes good sound cards mate..So If you wanna experience real 7.1 go for a X-Fi Sound card first..there are only a few 7.1 speaker systems in the market and the best you can afford is Creative's Inspire P7800..The bass ain't that good but hell..u get 7 speakers + bass..the wires aren't long tho..that's the biggest problem of the setup..
There is also the Creative GigaWorks S750 wireless system which'll cost u a dang fortune..surely you won't go for it but who knows if you're one of those millionaires..lol
My suggestion for you is to go for a Creative 5.1 speaker system..you will find quite a few wired and wireless systems..I heard that Logitech makes good speakers but have never used one..

[azaamDAsquad]

hmmm. wanted to buy a altec lancing 5.1 mate ..itz around 5,000
or must giv a try for logitech if itz cheaper than altec lancing :D

[systemoad]

nahh budz..Logitech's way expensive..why are you looking for a 7.1 anyway? It's all rite for a home theatre system machan but for a pc 5.1 is enough. blv me.. a good 5.1 speaker setup ceritified wid THX and a Creative X-Fi sound card will do the trick..You really need a X-Fi to play games like BattleField, Quake etc. That'll give you crisp top notch sounds..so upgrade ya sound card first

[GTRZ]

Altec Lansing! Best PC speakers! I have tested with many products, wrote reviews and i own. Their 2.1 MX5021 sounds like high end home theater. Super mids and highs, tight clear bass

If you wanna go for pro PC speakers and have money then go for Logitech Z5500 Digital. You can shake your room. But not crystal sounding like MX5021, slightly low but much more power and better bass performance.

If you can find Klipsch they also sound super.

Do not but Creative Inspire or PC works they sucks! MegaWorks or Gigaworks have good lows but lacks high quality mids.

hey azaam try SALa enterprises...i saw sum really cool and gud 7.1 speakers there..and the prices are very resasonable...

[GTRZ]

ya thats ENZOR or some brand right? Thay have huge 5.1 system with big sub but around 7000/- as i remember. But not sure about the sound quality. As i saw it has a cheap bass driver, not sure about the satellites.

[deffa]

if you think so, when you listen to Altec Lansing MX5021 or FX6021 you will see Creative Inspire just crap. Cheap drivers lol Even Altec Lansing 2.1 sounds way better than Inspire 7.1
ppl think it's better coz creative make good sound cards, pure crap. It's like all ppl say Bose is the best coz it has big price and advertisements say sounds like out of this world :lol:

[GTRZ]

Other thing don't just buy those expensive sound cards without checking their features. You may don't have media that gives the advantage or not oftenly using such media files. Have to say on normal usage it gives really small differance in sound quality. Many ppl report they can't even find any differance than thier on board sound. So check before your paying big $$ on sound cards.
But having external sound card also slightly ease the load on your CPU, coz onboard sound use your system resources. So first look what you really need and what you really have and what you gonna play. May be you really have no need of any of those audigyz or X-Fiz, only cheap Live! 24-bit or Sound Blaster 5.1 will suite you.

[systemoad]

tru that GTRZ
unless you're not planning on watching real 5.1 movies or playing high tech games it's useless for you to buy X-Fi cards. and dude, Altec Lansing don't make 5.1 speakers yahh? that's why I thought tt was useless.I mean we are into 7.1 now and they still don't have 5.1..but even the 2.1 MX5021 is THX certified..I'm impressed man. It's about time they moved onto a 5.1 setup.
btw GTRZ, how much will a 5.1 Inspire T5900 cost in SL?

[GTRZ]

No machan Altec Lansing HAVE 5.1 speakers! But i haven't seen 7.1
I can't remember the price of Inspire 5.1 machan.

[systemoad]

ur rite pal..had to do some more thorough research into Altec Lansing to come up wid these..

[systemoad]

ohh..too bad. It wud've been very easy u kno. I wanted to kno how much a Inspire T5900 will cost in SL? pls feel free to post a list of prices for creative products starting from T5900..lol. the T5900 and the Megaworks THX 550 are the ones I'm interested in..but like I said if u stumble upon the prices of any other products post it k..no pressure bro..:lol:

[azaamDAsquad]

i'm up2 buy a altec lancing macho ..the 5.1

they dont make 7.1 as unity plaza shop said me.. and i got audigy 2 sound card...
so hope it workz well wit d altec lancing 5.1

do ur'll knw altec lancing have double magnet speaker ..so more powerfull
they got some 2.1 spkz which go around 10,000..
and they made spkr for X-bOx... 5.1's i guess

the sets are for sale @ unity when i did sum research ..lmao

[systemoad]

the VS3151 and the GT5051 yahh? yep they have built in RCA inputs for ya DVD player, portable audio player and gaming consoles. btw mobile phones tend to cause problems to speakers. Make sure they are shielded properly..not the casing, they do something to block the waves frm ya mobile phone frm interupting the frequency.

[GTRZ]

Altec lansing has super 2.1z almost they are more expensive than their 5.1z

[azaamDAsquad]

Altec lansing has super 2.1z almost they are more expensive than their 5.1z

Ow bung!!! i chqd it... :yes:

[systemoad]

Altec lansing has super 2.1z almost they are more expensive than their 5.1z

why's that man?? They've got only two 5.1 setups but those are affordable..not like the 2.1s which are much more expensive. So waz the price in SL?

[GTRZ]

they got some normal 2.1z which around same price like other brands.
But MX5021 and FX6021 sounds extraordinary so have some high price too.
Like Rs12,000 - 14,000


MX5021
http://www.alteclansing.com/images/MX5021.jpg



FX6021
http://www.alteclansing.com/images/FX6021.jpg


MX5021 more powerful and more bass. Good for hiphop etc.. It has 2 midrange drivers 3" each and 1 tweeter 1"
and 6.5" long throw woofer

FX6021 has 6 1" drivers making super clear mids and highs but in my point of view it lacks bass. People say it’s the best but not for me. But sounds bit better than MX5021 in mids coz that 6 mid drivers.

So my choice MX5021! :D It has lot of inputs, wireless remote, etc.. They even give piece of special cleaning cloth for this system since it has piano black shining. lol
Expect that kinda care from other manufacturers haha

I have tested it with those Logitech Z5500 Digital and all other so called expensive pc speaker systems costs over Rs40,000 but you can't beat the mids and highs of Altec Lansing. Logitech sucks only got booming bass. But since Z5500 is digital and have optical ins it produces good bass than altec MX5021 but no good mids and highs like Altec Lansing. Z5500 way more powerful than MX5021 it has 550W RMS.

Altec Lansing is an American company which has history like from 1920, if you search internet you can find lot of history behind Altec Lansing.

“Altec Lansing speaker systems have formed the backbone of the sound systems in such world renowned places as The United Nations Building, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Disneyland and Disneyworld, New York's Lincoln Philharmonic Center and the Schubert Theatre, MGM's Grand Hotel, The Singapore National Stadium, and The Sydney Opera House, to name a few”

[GTRZ]

Otherthing i forgot to tell, never ever buy Bose guys! They use cheap drivers. If you not sure just check with some1 who paid big $$$ for crap bose.
They just doing it from pure fake advertising.. Sounds like out of this world etc...
They got over sweetened mids thats all.

"No highs, No lows should be a Bose!" :lol:

If you have big bucks to spend on bose try nakamichi, JBL, harman/kardon, Marantz etc..

[crazy life]

I've experienced Creative T7900

damn I was like in the movie

but the wires weren't long enough eh? the bass ain't the best i hear but it's well worth for $xx buks.

yo GTRZ..machan how about Altec's 5.1 setups..they should be better than the 2.1s rite? Although it's not made for pcs u can use it with the rite card and inputs.

[azaamDAsquad]

altec 5.1 are made for pc's which support 5.1 ..

[GTRZ]

Well machan they made for PCs, but you can have many inputs like mp3, tv,dvd,game etc..

5.1s will sound better than normal 2.1s but from bass MX5021 is the best, no other 5.1 can produce that much quality bass. Actually even altec 5.1 will never sound better than FX6021 or MX5021. But they have surround sound and other features.

[azaamDAsquad]

machn those 2 pic spkr up there!! are they wireless... jus saw it

[GTRZ]

you mean speaker connections? Then nope
If you asking about the controller yes they have wireless remote controller.

[azaamDAsquad]

then watchA mean by sattelite .. wireless nemei ney...
i have seen sum home theatre system with the 5 spkz wireles.. kool ney machn

[GTRZ]

Satellite mean the small speakers that produce mids and highs. As I said before this system don’t have wireless satellites. Actually I’m okay with wires if they sound good.
Those wireless home theaters will cost like 10 times than this.

[azaamDAsquad]

dANG !!!
i went to a shop called mitech.. they said they wil giv da altec lancing 151 for 5,000
but no stock wen i went to buy it 2day...bad luck..

[systemoad]

Creative and Logitech make wireless speaker systems if ya wanna try 'em out..but it's costly as hell :lol: solves the short wire problem though..has a 8-15m range as far as I can remember..

[azaamDAsquad]

i checkd the logitech DIGITAL one.. they said itz 40,000.. but in the net itz 20,000 i guez... lmao

[systemoad]

the Creative GigaWorks S750 should be well over Rs40,000..but the Logitech Z-5500 and the Logitech Z-5450 should be between Rs25,000-Rs30,000

okkoma horu bang:lol: try different shops machan.

[GTRZ]

i checkd the logitech DIGITAL one.. they said itz 40,000.. but in the net itz 20,000 i guez... lmao

Where you found it for 20,000? i mean which site?
Logitech Z-5500 Digital cost Rs37,500/- in PC house.

[azaamDAsquad]

i chqed in some internet site..
thru google. cant remember

i wil post sum linkz relating to 5.1

[systemoad]

The Z-5500 is around $250-$275 on the net..which should also bring the perfect market price for it in SL around Rs25,822.50 - Rs28,404.75..hell I don't see it happening..might as well ship it somehow budz..u don't wanna make them pc distributors rich now eh??

[azaamDAsquad]

[GTRZ]

SoftLogic is the DELL dealer here, not sure what speaker brand they selling..

[azaamDAsquad]
