Posted July 20, 200915 yr okay so a while ago i was deciding if i should get headphones or speakers for my next year in college. i have decided i am getting speakers, but now the real fun starts. do i get a good set of stero speakers at 500$ and a decent amp/reciver at 200$ or a 700$ish set of shitty surround sound speakers with a sub and amp built in? i went to a local hifi speaker place and listend to the 500$ a pair speakers and they were amazing, the demo cd of U2 sounded orgasmic and i dont even like u2. i could almost hear the pick flicking off the strings of the guitar. but with a shitty surround system i would lose that but gain bullets flying over my head during COD4. whats your call?
July 20, 200915 yr Just buy a 100$ pair a speakers with a subwoofer, and a $25 pair of headphones. It's not that difficult.
July 20, 200915 yr jesus christ do you have it in you to make any decision yourself? don't overspend. it's fucking college. you'll wish you had the extra $300 when you run out of booze and weed money or get a drinking ticket.
July 20, 200915 yr you can get a really decent set of speaker for around £50 so save some pennies for some booze or smack
July 20, 200915 yr get astro a40's and a mix amp. game over. best head set i have ever used and its cheaper than your speakers. im ashamed to admit this but if im watching a dvd or somthing with them on and some surround sound part comes on and i forget im wearing them it scares the ever loving shit out of me thats how good they sound. www.astrogaming.com for best sound you need an optical out on either an xbox ps3 or your desktop or if you're getting a receiver that will work too.

July 22, 200915 yr general rule of thumb ::: spend the extra money on the reciever, f00ls!!! you can always pick up some more speakers, but if you've got a shit reciever the best speakers will stil sound shitty! put some extra money into the reciever and save yoruself some heartache
July 22, 200915 yr http://www.listkeepers.com/images/property-uploads/gramophone-nostalgia.jpg I got me one of these badboys it's pretty leet.
July 22, 200915 yr http://computermonger.com/wp-content/uploads/Speakers/LOGITECH_Z_5300E_5.1_280_WATTS.jpg pretty cheap for decent mid-grade speakers. sadly it comes with a wired remote control :gay2:
