Default Speaker forum that look like head-fi?

I am looking to buy a best bang for the buck speaker system for my computer and i want to have good informations to help me take the right decision. So do you guys know a good forum with friendly people where i can find that kind of information? Also looking for a musician forum or something like that since i need to find a good/cheap midi keyboard to use with reason.

I dont know any speaker-fi forums, but some people here are quite educated with speakers aswell, and use headphones as complement to their speaker setups. Ask here too and you might get good answers.

I own Axiom speakers and have been enjoying them for a few years. They also have a pretty good forum with some pretty nice folks.

Yeah that what i was thinking, but i was kinda affraid of the wrong forum answers :P

But still, ill try my luck.

I am looking at a deal similar to the insigna speaker but available in Canada. Coupled with a good but cheap subwoofer. I am looking to pay 150-200$ (realy looking for a GREAT deal...like the K81DJ or KSC-75 kind of deal)
Also looking for an affordable midi keyboard available in Canada too.

If you know a good deal let me know.

Look great but don't respect the 150-200$ price range except maybe for one cheap bookshelf speaker

Nah the shipping would clearly smash the deal, since they are a heavy load. Even though i know some people on here would do it, since it is such a great community hehe

Hey, we have something of a speaker forum here- check out the cables, tweaks, etc. section for some loudspeaker discussion.

I used to spend a lot of time over at the AVS forum. That can be a lot of fun! Go to "speakers" in the "audio area"!

But alas, no-one that would have paid $150-$200 for a pair of Naim speakers
