desktop speakers

First Post on this website, hoping to get some feedback on this. I just bought a house and the middle room was the only room that made sense to turn into an office/studio. I currently have a pair of Yamaha HS-7's and was considering purchasing LP-6's or IN-5 since they claim to work well for...

Hello, I have a pair of Neumann KH80s, and I am relatively dissatisfied with them. I would appreciate advice on whether another setup would work better for me. To be clear, the audio quality is great. The main problems I have are: - They are missing some oomph, especially in the mid-range...

For nearfield desktop use between 2 ft and 1M distance from me. Active Studio Monitors vs. Passive Bookshelves + Small Amp? Roughly £1k budget. I’m looking for desktop speakers/amp to pair with Topping DX5 DAC that I currently only use with headphones. Usage will be hi-res music playback...

Trying to get a precise estimate of self-generated noise level on Kali LP V2 and IN V2 models. Heard lots of folks say they are silent and less noise than V1. But how much exactly? Though somebody made this form...

Hello. For context, I work as a full time video editor and often times I have to deal with a little sound mixing on my projects. These include voice EQ, sound effects and music. At this point I'm using my Macbook Pro speakers and Hyperx Cloud II to mix. Of course this might be the worst...

I am a PC gamer who sometimes watch video and listen to music. Not being any professional in audio, I only decide to put active 2.0 speakers by the side of my 27-inch monitor. (A triangle of about 1 meter) The audioengine HD4 I am currently using still has some hissing and port noise within 1...

Hi and sorry if it's in wrong category but I've been searching where similar questions were posted and they've been posted all over the forum so here I go. I have the mr4's as desktop speakers and I've been thinking of getting them a sub to pair them with. Sure they get nice down to 40Hz but…...

I'm looking for desktop speakers that can fit in limited space. I've checked audioengine's a2+ (the a5+ can't be shipped to my country) and they look pretty decent given the compact size. so apparently speakers in my country are expensive af for no reason. fyi the $269 a2+ costs $340 in my...

Hello, I'm looking for something better than my laptop speakers for when I don't feel like wearing headphones (summer and with it swamp ears are coming). The most common recommendations aren't really sold here but edifiers are and they're pretty well priced (Equivalent of 88$ for 1380BT, 105 for...

Hey Audiophiles. I need some final advice for my cramped space. I tried the Kanto YU2 but they where way too boomy and the Audioengines A2+ are...just not enough. They cant cheat physics. ;) As you can see i need to fit the speakers behind and under the monitor while laying them on their...

Hey there, I'm currently looking to get a pair of active speakers for my desktop setup. I'm testing out the Edifier MR4 right now, and while they are pretty good, I can't fit them in my setup. I'm looking for a pair that are at most 4.5 inches in width. Speakers the size of stuff like the...

Hey all, I have kind of a tough situation spatially with my current PC setup. I do a lot of sim racing, fps, and single player gaming and like to use both speakers and headphones. I am very satisfied with my headphone setup, but am rather lost on how to upgrade my speaker setup. I am space...

Hi there, Just got myself a pair of IKEA OBEGRÄNSAD: Useful for raising your desktop speakers a bit. I was going to DIY these things, but for € 10,- a pop, there is really no contest. It says limited time available, so be quick.

Hey, I just tried to correct my LS50 using REW and my Behringer ECM-8000 to get a flatter response. I set the volume to roughly 75dB using the pink noise generator. I only corrected peaks which are mainly caused by room modes in my setup. I used the following settings for the filter...

For sale is a pair of JBL 306p mk2’s in good condition except for some minor cosmetic imperfection in the speaker wraps as shown. Local sale in the Charlotte, NC vicinity preferred as I don’t have the original boxes anymore. I can drive to 50 miles of 28277 to deliver them. Price for the pair...

Hey everyone, looking for some advice: i'm looking for a new pair of speakers for my desktop and was hoping you guys could recommend some speakers. However I am looking for alternatives to the dbr62 (have a ht, so i have 4 pairs of them and i love them, but i want something different looking)...

Hello! I have Focal Shape Twins with Burson Composer Dac\Preamp for my desktop setup for music, gaming and movies. So wanted to ask, what would be the logical upgrade for active near field speakers\monitors for the same application. Focal Trio6 BE? Focal Trio11 BE? Or they are better for studio...

I remember reading here about an older pair of Shanling speakers, the S2's. The people that actually ordered them were very satisfied, it seemed. I always had my eye on Shanling products after having some decent experiences with their line of DAPs. Anyway, they just announced a new pair of...
