I know my speakers suck

, they are THX certified for whatever that means, but they don't sound great, they lack highs

I always wanted my PC to be in such a eh, hole in the wall. Nice overclock as well.

thanks

overclock is kind of fail, this 680i struggles with 360+ FSB. It's a really sad board, but I got it for free, so can't complain.

Well what were you expecting of your E7200? That is a very nice OC. My E6750 runs at 3.5ghz.

From some random dude on craigslist who had made them years before but no longer needed them. $10 if memory serves!

Here's my modest study/listening area. Being a Biochemistry and English Writing double major has it's ups and downs, but mainly requires that I stay at this desk way too much. As a result, I've brought in all the comforts I possibly can (admittedly the xbox 360 is gone, too distracting...).

This picture is pretty awful if you're a wire neat-freak, just a heads up

The Tivoli Audio Model Two's are nothing to write home about, especially considering their retail price. Luckily, the Target near me was getting rid of them and donated them to the thrift store, where they were only $10. That's pretty much the definition of my set up / life, everything on a "no-budget" budget (though I often spend too much even then). The TV and the Macbook Pro are the only "expensive" things I really have and they were gifts for graduation

My meager listening area, once again most of it purchased at thrift stores, with the exception of both 'phones, the Go-Vibe and the Hotaudio HotUSB1 Dac.

Seems to make sense:

Mac owners like grossly overpaying for equivalent hardware
Audiophiles like grossly overpaying for equivalent hardware

im not starting a flame war
