Your PC Speakers!

This is my speaker setup right now-

Not to diss your setup Desktop, but you might wanna move that sub away from your CPU. Low frequencies are non-directional, so no matter where you put it, it will sound the same... possibly better. I would suggest you put it behind your desk parallel to the wall, or if possible, in the corner of the room (best option). Reason: Magnetism will take out your PC in no time and being in the corner will disperse the waves better.

Another tip: put your center channel speaker behind or below your monitor. I see that it kinda dips down... put it in there maybe. You could leave the front L/R as they are, and aim the Rear Right firing towards the wall to your right and the Left Right firing towards the wall to your left. This won't be completely accurate, but those waves will bounce off the opposing walls and come back to your ears as "surround".

Thanks, but I didn't notice any difference.

Desktop i hope you become an active member, from what i read you write and sound like a mature member. We're severely lacking in them, i am no mature member as you will come to know, but still, its nice haveing them around

How serious are you about sound? A studio monitor setup is that much better.

Crysalis, I stand corrected (*hangs head in shame*). I was doing some (ugh) apartment cleaning today and I decided to give your speaker arrangement a try and it definitely improved the sound! Here's a picture to show the new arrangement:



Thank you

K-Man, thanks. Obviously this is a good place to learn about speakers, lol.

Logitech X-530 5.1, they were cheap and work great.

No prob! The best thing to do would obviously be to put the rear speakers behind you (what a concept!!), but in your situation, firing them towards the opposite walls will give a similar effect.

Creative L3800. They sound as good as they look.
