Speakers?

#11865747 - 01/20/10 01:09 PM (16 years, 8 months ago)

I'm looking for something to listen to music with :lol:

http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/speakers_audio/home_pc_speakers/devices/234&cl=us,en

These look nice, but I'm not sure. I don't plan on using it for gaming or anything. Just music. I'm not entirely sure if I need it to be connected to my computer, although a way to play the stuff on my computer through a seperate audio system would be nice. It needs to have a 3.5 jack in it to plug my PMP into, my budget is $100 - anyone got any ideas?

If you just want to listen to some tunes, any old home pc spekers will work fine, and most sound the same.

If you want to appreciate music, get a pair of monitors.

An old receiver and multi driver speakers are really nice if you can find some deals, as thats what i use personnaly, but i lucked out, since i was doing home audio when i got the parts. :tongue2:

I fucking love these, for the price: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16836121122

And I am damn picky about my audio equipment. These are just great for something to plug your iPod into, or listen to music off your PC.

They are slightly bass-heavy, but that can be dealt with.

Im in this debate myself...

Speakers vs. monitors?

I am no audio engineer/music producer. But i would consider myself a bit of an audiophile... I am almost never satisfied with my music listening experience...i know it gets better...

So i have heard monitors are extremely accurate... meaning for listening (not recording/mixing) purposes they could be "too" accurate. meaning they would point out flaws in most music...unless mastered 100% perfectly. True?

So i am willing to spend $500-$1200 for a nice little set up.
What do you guys think.. Monitors or Speakers?

Aw, bummer. They're totally worth it, but I feel you on the cash.

I had the earlier model for about 6 years. They were going strong until one of the cables broke. For some reason you CAN'T buy a replacement for it.

Regardless, I got another set, haha.

I would go with a logitech within your budget. These would probably be great: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16836121036 :smile:

Or buy these headphones for a low-priced, yet orgasmically good audio experience: http://www.headphone.com/headphones/grado-sr-60i.php

I might just buy those $160 ones - I just not sure if I wanna use them as computer speakers or just overall speakers :lol:

I had those grado's, they itched my head :shrug:

If it were me I'd go to the goodwill and buy a used receiver and speakers. Then you could plug in an ipod, cd player, and a dvd player to your system.
