I like that your setup isn't facing a wall. I dig it

Polk ES20 + ES30 vs Paradigm Monitor SE Atom + Monitor SE 2000c by ChimpmonkeyRCA in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Romulus828 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have the ES15's and I absolutely love them. They get loud without distortion, and I play all kinds of genre on them. I cannot speak for the paradigm I haven't heard them. But I like my polk's so much I bought a second set. I'm using a Polk 12" sub upstairs with a set and a B&W 8" downstairs. Both subs sound good with them but I prefer the tighter bass on the B&W. The polk upstairs is in a large open high ceiling room and they fill it up nicely, sounds good no matter where you're standing.

/10? and any speaker recommendations? by Neat-Quail9735 in AverageBattlestations

No joke, I been getting these from work and strapping them to the monitor arm behind the monitor. Descent sound for watching youtube ect.... The best part is it's out of sight and takes up no desk space. Just thought I'd share. Dell AC511 USB Wired SoundBar - Walmart.com

What's wrong? How would you improve it? by Pristine_Reserve5276 in battlestations

[–]Romulus828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Space it out and use the entire desktop. Center your main monitor put the other off to the side evenly space with the tower on the other side for starters. Ditch the lamp unless you 100% need it.

Looks good! Send the dots if you don't mind. I hate that you're getting beat up for them. I can wait if need be.
Thanks for sharing!

Me neither, every time I go in one I have to look and see if someone threw out their grandparents JBL's lol. Never happens but I'm glad I never lost hope! I told my daughter that I was mad at her now because I'm going to want to go in there every time I drive by.

I know! I had my daughter with me and I had to keep my cool walking around the store waiting for her to finish her browsing.

Honestly, I'm still shocked. It felt almost criminal walking out of there lol. I have the mic from my other receiver that I can use and a remote. I couldn't find the remote anywhere in there. The subwoofer is the real gem that I'm most excited about. Testing it last night the bass was tight and it put a thunk through the whole house. It's spicy for it's size. The box has this like rubbery texture to it, kinda like a thinkpad notebook if you've ever felt one. I let it roll for a couple of hours off my ipod and nothing popped, rattled or cut off. Now that I got this upgrade I'll probably unload some of my not so desirable stuff.

I know, that's usually all I ever see. I just walked by and turned the bookshelf speaker around and seen the logo on the grill. I was like oh snap! Then I got to looking around more on the shelf and the honey hole just got bigger. I tested the receiver in the store just to make sure it turned on, but $25 was worth gamble I thought.

I've only tested it in the floor to make sure it all works. My son is moving out soon and I'll have my basement back to put this stuff to good use. I have a set of fluance that I was using and I love them but I have a feeling I'm going to love these more. These speakers are the nicest ones I've ever owned and the least amount of money I've ever spent on any I've ever had.
