What speakers do you have?

[dylan43270]

I am currently using 2 Onkyo towers that my dad gave me (from the 90s), a Micca MB42x-C center channel, 2 Micca COVO-S rears and a Dayton Sub. I have recently purchased 2 more Micca MB42-C with crossovers and am just going to put those on top of my towers to replace them.

 

Once I save up enough money I am curious to purchase a full DIY speaker set, most likely the Fusion 8 Alchemy set.

 

What speakers do you currently have and/or wish you had?

I have two 12 year-ish old Sony speakers in an even older Kenwood amp.

 

I really want a couple of studio monitors from JBL but eh.

[Aytex]

Headphones :^)

[Lauen]

A pair of Phonar Micro 2, amp is Sony Super Legato Linear TA-FE300R, AUX goes through a Fischer EQ-273, and I also have a Yamaha CDC-655 5-CD player. Rarely use the CD player though. 

 

 

EDIT: Sort of want Jamo 628 though, but in my current living arrangements I have no place for floorspeakers.

I have seen people with those and recommending them a lot more recently. Are they awesome?

Well speakers have not changed much since then. My old tower speakers would probably sound better if I refoamed them, but I am too lazy to even try. I also want to use a speaker with more than 60 watts, and matching L/C/R. 

 

I was really tempted to pick up the LSR305s since they are pretty cheap right now, but it seems like it will be too much work to pair with my sub at my desktop, I will stick with my Miccas for now.

The low-end on these speakers suck though, ha.

Does your source that you use AUX not have a sofware EQ?

That sounds sad.

Pretty sure a sub could help with that.

they are the best price to performance studio monitor/speakers I could find. Only 1/3 the price of the Audioengine A5+, and sound great. Im not an audiophile so they suit me pretty well

Daaaammmnn do you have any pics?

Yes it does but I find having EQ on the aux line is easier than fiddling around with it on every device I choose to connect to it. I keep EQ mostly flat anyway.

I'm using a logitech z506 5.1 set up. I know im not nearly on the scale of some of you audioheads on here, but it's one of the highest quality systems i've listened to at the <100 price range.

None of them are installed nicely (LOL). I can share some later when I get home.

The 3-series monitors are great value devices. Would you be running a HPF on them?

Hmmm IDK. Would I need to in order to crossover the bass from the sub?

It's not always necessary, but it generally helps. If your audio interface supports it, then give it a go.

The Focal Grande Utopia EM is the speaker that I wish I had. There are far more expensive speakers, but the Utopias are really really good when matched well. They are still way beyond my budget.

 

Much more affordable option: Revel Ultima2 Salon

I have a Bose321 system, it is the worst gift I ever had, because Bose.... sound is okay-ish but the number of inputs + remotecontroll + GUI ....

F*ck Bose.
