Don't we already have a thread like this?
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
yes, it's somewhere floating aroundFreezer7Pro wrote:

Technics SL-1500MK2 Turntable
Onboard PC/Mac sound.
Lame, I know, but my room's pretty small, and I have the speakers mounted in 4 corners so it gives this nice room-filling sound. People that come in and hear it tend to frantically move their head around trying to figure out where the sound's coming from
I also have a set of Logitech X-540's set up in a proper surround setup around my main PC for Gaming, but I rarely if ever tend to actually bother to switch to them when I game.

Wow I like this thread, being a recording junkie!
Sound Equipment only?
2 x Technics 1210 (Mk 2's)
1 x Gemini EX26 (Mixer)
1 x Sony TC266 (Solid State Stereo Tapecorder)
1 x Sherwood DS-1135C (Stereo Cassette Deck)
1 x Marshall Guitar Amp
1 x Fender Guitar Amp
1 x Crystal 24 Track mixing desk
Various microphones to plug in (Basically a small PA system)
1 x Multimedia Labs Bookshelf Amp
1 x Onkyo Amp
1 x Nad Amp
An assortment of record players sitting in my loft not doing anything as I collect them!
2 x JPW's Mini Monitors (Speakers)
2 x Aural Enevelope's (Speakers)
2 x Audiosys (Speakers, Limited Edition as they only made 100 then went bust!)
Erm..........................Thats just at home, the studio is all shared equipment that we all brought, borrowed and robbed over the years!
I have some old amps hanging around in the loft also, some valve other newer, headphones like there going out of fashion! Can't think of anything else at the moment, but there is more if I bothered to look! Oh yeah a D.A.T (Sony thing), MORG keyboard. Did have a Tascam 24 Reel-2-Reel but thats in the studio now. And low and behold a computer!

I wouldn't use the Audigy if I were you. The decoding hardware in the 5500s is better than in Audigy series cards. It's essentially a 6-channel version of the one in the X-Fi and for 6 channel speakers that's all you need.GodFather wrote:
