I'd say not driving a car, but using a bike and public transportations would save you enough money to buy a very decent setup each freaking year.

Must be nice to live where that is possible. Even on my 4 mile one way commute I would be dead already if I tried to bike to work. Nobody here respects bikers, not really even motor cycles.

Upgraded from some cheap Hyundai HY-Z-5400 speakers to these Kenwood HM-332 speakers. Hifi system/CD players are much cheaper to buy second hand than standalone speakers and sound much better than most computer speakers. I doubt I could do better without shelling out $150-200 for some brandname bookshelf or studio monitors. I got this CD player for $15 (well over USD$100 originally according to Google). Great bargain since I got my precious computer bookshelf speakers for $32 brand new. Those old Hyundai speakers have been relegated to be used as speakers for my digital piano (CDP-100) with the CV piano or Maestro VST sounds.
 
I love the looks of these without the grille a lot. Compared to before, bigger cabinet, slightly bigger tweeter (1.5 inch vs 1 inch) and slightly bigger woofer (4 inch vs 3.5 inch). Notably, its soundstage is excellent along with deeper bass (from 60-70hz down to 50-60hz more or less).
 
By the way, I didn't feature my DIY speaker stands in the photos last time I posted here either, which were made out of cardboard paper, pillow stuffing, and sticky tapes

It's not too often that you see an HD800 with a Schiit stack, though they're becoming more popular. How does the combo sound?
 
Also, what've your mods done to the HD800's sound signature?
