I couldn't really find any consumer opinion on this subwoofer, only the previous discontinued KRK subwoofers - and I am unsure if it would be worth getting. I would be able to purchase it from someone locally for $275.

I'm looking for an external DAC with balanced XLR outputs. I've read numerous positive reviews surrounding it but reviews don't really give you the full picture. I'm upgrading from an Auzentech Forte 7.1 Soundcard, which is having interference problems. I want to pull the trigger soon, so I can...

So I noticed my KRK Rokit RP8G2s have the high-frequency volume adjust. Since I'm not going to be using my speakers for mixing anytime soon, they're primarily for listening. The room I'm using them is relatively small and completely bare wood and the ground is concrete. I tried using them with...

So I have two active monitors (KRK Rokit RP8G2's) and with them I bought an M-AUDIO Firewire Solo to listen to them with (was recommended to me). But the M-AUDIO Firewire Solo didn't work and I managed to get a refund. So that leaves me wondering - what now? I have these thick XLR to Balanced...

Hey guys, I recently bought an M-AUDIO Firewire Solo so I could hook my up new KRK Rokits 8G2 to an audio interface, and this ****ing thing doesn't work at all. I went out of the way to buy a PCI Firewire Card with a TI chip and my computer simply doesn't recognize the Solo. The PCI Card looks...

I bought a used Firewire Solo which didn't come with any cables, but it did come with the manual. In the manual is recommends to use the provided "high quality firewire cable", or one of equal quality. My speakers come tomorrow so I don't want to order it online, does anyone know of some popular...

I've heard recommendations for the M-AUDIO Firewire Solo DAC, with even has an input for guitar (which I'd use). I wish I could just use my Auzentech Forte, but from what I understand I can't do that, right? Also, what cables would I ideally use to hook all this up?   Thanks

Would this be overkill for just listening to music? I don't mix or anything like that.   EDIT: Or should I just do a safer upgrade and try Yamaha HS80Ms or KRK RP-8G2 Speakers?

Hey guys, I was curious about upgrading my PC audio and was wondering what you guys thought about the Musiland Monitor 02 US and its performance against the Forte? I have the Forte right now paired with AudioEngine A5.s   Would I benefit most from the DAC upgrade at the moment? Or should I...

After contacting Auzentech's support (and them taking a week to get back to me in between each response =\ ), they said I would need to RMA my card. But my card is over a year old and I doubt they'll give me a warranty. It was a good run but it's disappointing that the card didn't last that...

Right now I'm working with some AudioEngine A5s and an Auzentech 7.1 Forte. My A5s sit on Auralex Mopads aiming up towards me. Over the past 6 months, I'm not "feeling" it anymore. The A5s are certainly great, but I want an upgrade. If I have any complaints, the A5s are a little too laid back...

I know very little about DACs. I was too afraid to get one with my Grado SR-225i so I picked up an Auzentech Forte since I know plenty about computers and play many computer games. I think the Forte sounds great with my Grado headphones and my AudioEngine A5s, but I feel like I'm missing...

I've had mine for almost a year now and I rarely use them anymore. I find myself listening to music exclusively on my AudioEngine A5s even if it's night time and I can't turn them up at all. I think it's because I find the leather headband and the bowl cups too uncomfortable. After 15 minutes of...

Alright, so I've had this ugly ass duct tape on the bowls of my SR-225is for a long time now. Like an idiot, I figured to take off the tape, I'd literally just slowly peel off the tape. So I did this and very many tiny chunks of the bowl come off with the tape and the bowls now look damaged...

I can't really imagine ever leaving my A5s, but I'm curious what would be the next significant step up in price/performance? I really never pictured myself spending thousands of dollars on audio, but within the last 2 years - here I am with my A5s, my X-Fi Forte, my Grado SR-225i, and my 5.1...

Oddly enough, all I can squeeze out is 3.1. I have my PC hooked up to my TV through VGA and then my Forte hooked up to my Onkyo 607 with an optical cable. I have Windows and my Creative drivers set to 5.1. The surrounds come out of the two fronts. How do I get surround sound?

Does anyone know of good home-theater forums with a smart community such as this one?

But I know very little about home theater systems and such. Could somebody recommend me parts? I'm willing to spend up to $1,000 total (for everything I'd need) - but I don't want absolutely overkill for my not so large room. I will need some wall mountability (even if I have to buy the wall...

I don't have a very high budget, and this will be for a very small room. Originally what I was going to do was simply buy some A2s/A5s and hook them up to my 32" HDTV using the TV's RGB (or whatever the analog alternative to a 1/8th inch jack) sound output. But that got me thinking - the A2s/A5s...

So here's what I'm using, from source to output. MP3/FLAC (320kbps minimum) ----> Foobar 2000 ASIO ----> Auzentech X-Fi Forte ----> AudioEngine 5s on Mopads <OR> ----> Grado SR-225is on Forte's built in Amp My goal is to be able to listen to music loud when my parents aren't...

I know there's a lot of these out there, but one more won't hurt right? I've listened A2s which I've broken in, and my A5s which I haven't broken in. I don't have any non-bookshelf speakers to compare these too as I've only previously owned the Z-2300s and the Z-5500s. Nothing critical here...

I picked these pieces of foam from someone in the neighborhood for $15 and I was wondering if these were actually any good? I've read reviews online praising how they help low-end and stuff like that. But let's face it, you can also go online and find reviews if people claiming Logitech speakers...

I don't have any speaker stands because I'm putting A5s towards the back of my desk. When I had the A2s for a few weeks, I put them on some books and they sounded significantly better than when just placed on my desk. I then went out and bought 2 mini-storage containers made out of some metallic...

My neighbor pawned on me a bunch of free computer parts a few weeks ago and I sold most of it off on Craigslist. I ended up with $200 and since I was dying to try one of the AudioEngines, I ordered myself the A2s. My first impressions with them were pretty bad. The mid bass overwhelmed...
