Speakers?

[old.kim]

Treated myself to a long overdue upgrade:

Athlon 1.9+ XP
Geforce 3
512mb DDR
SB Audigy

Now need to replace my poxy ickle cheapo speakers with a decent (but not too expensive) system.

Maybe Creative Inspire 5.11-5300 ?

Ideas / suggestions?

Nice

I'd be interested to know what sort of framerates you get with it.

Do a Q3A benchmark at 1024x768x32xhighdetail for us would ya

Oh - and no idea about the speakers - soz m8 :|

The inspire is apparently well matched for the Audigy!

I got an Audigy but mines a 3 piece speaker system, as space is at premium

Fortunately they are ACE

ALTEC LANSING ATP3's

But I gather you want a 5 piece cos ya got lots of space!!! ya lucky sod!!!
Can't really help ya with the 5 piece soz!!!
But if space is tight then get these beauties!

However Look at this link for a review of the Inspire!

The new creative inspire 5 piece set is decent system for a low price. I really like klipsch promedia's speakers. The cheapest set of speakers is I think retails for $179. And its a 2-piece 200 watt set with a sub but they are great speakers, they put out a lot of sound. Right now I have cambridge fps 2000 digital speakers I got for $200 2 years ago and I like them.

Nice

Mine don't cost anywhere near that!!! £75 which is about $50 I think!!!!!

If I had the space I'd get the Creative PlayWorks DTT3500 Digital

now that would be soooooooooooo cool

Why not look at the Altec Lansing ATP5's (4.1 system) - nice speakers but no decoding ability.

I've got my PC hooked up to a Marantz PM66 KI-Signature amplifier and a pair of Mission 752 Freedoms, with a Marantz CD63 MkII KI-Signature CD player for when I pall of the crap mp3 quality (even good ones are nowhere near CD Quality). Cost me nigh on 1500 quid including cabling, but it shows even Klipsch stuff a thing or two about sound quality Unfortunately I don;t wanna take that setup to uni with me, so I have to stick with a Sony CMT-CP500MD micro system. Still packs a fairly large wallop tho

Know what u mean about UNI though, i'm scared to even park my car when a visit my m8!!!
