I am looking into replacing a set of logitech Z5500(bedroom) and my desktop speakers(Logitech z530 or something, thx certified).
For the desktop, I am thinking about purchasing a receiver and SPIDIF through a sound card that is DDL capable. I am thinking about getting the RC-micro for 399, but I am afraid that the bass is lacking (i really would like a 12 inch sub). My next option is to get the take classics 5.0 and then put in a BIC 12inch sub....but the take classics are large speakers.
For my bedroom, I am thinking about a BIC sub plus the take classics to replace the Z5500. There will be a noticible difference for the upgrade right?
SO what do you guys recommend? I want the floor standing speaker sound but without having to buy such large speakers. Also I am considering the Swans MKII plus a bic sub.
Anyways, budget is 350-400 per set. Bedroom=99%movies, desktop=a mix of movies, gaming and music.
Lets just say I would love to have the same fidality I get from my Shure E4c headphones with the computer setup...because currently the Z530=POS I cannot stand. The Z5500 sounds tiny compared to my floor standing polk setup(R70, CS2, infinity 12inch sub).
Considering:
Energy Take 5 classic with Bic 12inch Sub
RC-Micro 5.1 package
Polk Rm8 speakers with bic 12 inch sub(anyone heard of these?)
Jamo 5.1 package
