Your PC Speaker setup!

[Johnny Vinyl]

I'd like to hear about the speakers you are using for your PC.

I finally upgraded to some dedicated active monitors after years of listening to a variety of PC Speaker steups from Logitech, H-K and Altec. The difference in sound quality has been revelatory, although a lot of that can be attributed to the dedicated soundcard I installed as well, along with good quality cables.

The speakers I bought are Behringer Truth B1030A's and I'm really pleased with them.

. Oh well I need to get my a** in gear and take some pics of it and my HT setup, but I'm extremely bad with pics as I have a condition that calls for meds and they give me the shakes. I'll clean up and get my daughter to take the pics

Edit: John I just noticed that your monitors blend in so well with your pc monitor, down to the yellow of your woofers and Ferrari logo, very cool buddy

Nice John and congrats . My first experience with studio monitors was with Genelec , but i think the KRK do a pretty go job and i was looking at the RP8G2 but now i have to wait till next year .

My PC is in the same room with my HT so I just HDMI out to my HT system. I do have one remaining Harmon Kardon speaker and sub connected to my PC if I just want to watch a quick video or something though. Was a nice speaker set in it's day. My cat kept knocking one off the desk... hence only having one left now

I love the truth line, fantastic monitors, A friend of mine has the B3030A in his basement studio. I've always thought about getting a set just to have around incase I may need them.

I just use the Logitech X-530, with my computer. My real speaker set up is in the theater room with the projector.

I have a Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 setup on my desktop, the self powered subwoofer provides clean bass at adjustable levels on the speakers. The lows go very low and the highs are quite crisp, i picked mine up at an auction for about 75$ on ebay a while back once you get these youll never want another set, its also avalable in 5.1.. only draw back there is not an on or off button, i had another Yamaha 2.1 cream colored setup while ago that rattled the walls and rumbled everything but me out of the computer chair but that one REALLY pissed the neighbors off

im running the same thing but the difference i have is i don't run it off the integrated audio card i have a sound blaster x-fi to help process the sound along with an equalizer to help the speakers reproduce the sound along with FLAC files and winamp.

I had a Soundblaster x-fi for years, but got tired of Creative taking more than a year to upgrade driver support when I installed newer versions of Windows. So I switched to an Asus Xonar Essence STX and I couldn't be happier!

I've got an Asus Xonar DX soundcard outputting to an Outlaw RR2150 Amp used as a headphone amp right now through RCA interconnects. Audio Technica ATH-M50 headphones currently but looking into Sennheiser HD598's.
