Re: 2.1 (5.1) and computer MP3's


Oh wow, I hadn't seen that they had redesigned the case. Looks much nicer and easier to mod.

Actually, the T-amps have been lauded for their sound quality by many Audiofools. I won't pretend to know the specifics, but it has something to do with the type of amplifier (T-class) and how much distortion exists at lower volume levels (you won't be running these things full blast, despite the meager wattage rating):

They're inexpensive, cool running and energy efficient. If you're looking for a stop gap, I wouldn't hesitate. I have 2 and the only complaint I have is that the spring clips in back suck big time, and there's a little low-end rolloff (doesn't matter when you have a sub). But, they work and for the $40 each I paid (Including the power adapter), I think they're hard to beat when you need a desktop system and already have a pair of passive speakers.


Listen to the Real HT Info Podcast at http://realht.info, or on iTunes.

Also, listen right here on The Home Theater Shack. Just use the web applet on the front page.
