New Speakers (Not really 56k friendly)

[Jiff Lemon]

OK, 3040's being gently bed in, here's the pics as promised.

View from the couch - 32" Samsung TV with Gale Centre on top



Kenwood 200 disc CD changer and Yammy DVD



Yammy Surround amp and obligatory X-box



Then the antiques corner - Video, MD recorder and a thoroughly modern MVP!



Rear Aristons on Ikea stands




Paradigm 8" sub sat behind the couch



So how does it all sound? Definately an improvement - Much clearer in the midrange with a lot more defination. Not pushing the volume too far just yet, but so far I'm happy. And mr richer will let me take them back in 14 days time if I'm not!

Oh and not forgetting the other "home entertainment centre".....

[Andyr]

Very nice.

32" TV?

[Howard]

That looks like a Yamaha surround amp

What rear speakers, centre and sub do you have?

Nice setup


Edit: What a berk I can see the centre now!

I was about to say the same thing.

What speakers actually are they ... 3040s dont really help, lol.

[Jiff Lemon]

Doh! I blame the beer....

Tis indeed a yamaha amp. I remember the sherwood was the amp I was GOING to buy... then I heard the yammy.

Front speakers are Gale 3040's, rears are some tiny little Ariston things, sub is 10" something or other..... Really musn't post whilst drunk!

Are they those really cheapo Aristons from Richer sounds?

At £15 I was thinking of getting a pair just for the fun of it, what are they like stereo sound wise?

[Jiff Lemon]

Yup they are - Soundwise? Well, I've only ever run them as rears so they never have to do much work. As a pair of rears they're great.

[Butuz]

Theyre pretty poor sounding, but, for £10 odd you cant expect more.

Richers have sold those since Jesus was wearing shorts and making sandcastles by the Red Sea

they are very popular.

[unrealrocks]

Heh - only Im looking to get a pair of stand mount speakers togo with my PC (my whole surround system is offset to my right around my TV so its a little off for playing games etc.) was gonna put them on the B front channels on my decoder so I can switch them on and off as needed ... might get a pair just to see what there like (hey - its only £15, lol).
