Recommend me speakers ... Halp!

[Colas]

I have a Klipsch promedia 2.1 system that I've had for nearly 6 years. The satellite speakers are smallish, but not suspiciously small, and put out a nice vibrant sound. The subwoofer is a good size too, and amazingly loud. I usually end up cranking the bass knob all the way left if i'm practicing. Parties are different . I was just looking on Ebay, and you can wrangle a pair for cheap. I got mine for $60 because they had a broken DIN plug and had a friend put a new end on for a few bucks. Definitely worth a look though.

I had a pair of m audio av40 I think? Well, gave them to my bro since I upgraded but for a little pair of 4'' speakers those things get pretty loud but excellent for desktop purposes and good price. If you ever upgrade, I got mackie mr8 and they are absolutely awesome, I like a little more bass since I lack a subwoofer and you can boost these nicely if you need them for something else, say a small party at home... Well actually if I go over half the volume the neighbors would bang on my door! (of course probably wouldnt hear them)

Was just wondering if maybe something like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16836121048 was any good.

I have them too. For lower priced active monitors, they are quiet good.

Apparently, PC speakers arent any good and real studio monitors are way better. The way I get to understand it is:

God tier - Monitor speakers like KRK,s Yamaha, Mackies etc... Studio stuff
Top Tier - Great bookshelf speakers , great dedicated amp
Mid Tier - Decent home theather
Low Tier - PC speakers
Shit Tier - skullcandy, DIY'd old car speaker setup.

Im aiming at God Tier but budget and Ebayed.

Which would you buy? All are around $200............

M-Audio Av40

Because your on a budget, from your list, I would TOTALLY get these:

TECHNICAL PRO MRS05 + subwoofer MRS10SUB

For sure.


Those are going to have the best frequency response, all the way down to 30-20hz.


None of those other options w/o a sub are going to be able to match the technical pros with a sub.


Totally get the Technical Pros.


I actually saw those after I bought my KRK's and was kinda pissed I hadn't found em before.

^I heart you.

Bought the Techinical Pros + Sub for 189.00. I'll write a review here when I get them. I havent still seen any1 here with those speakers but I'll let yall know if they are good or no.
