2.1 speaker set for gaming

V

HI guys, please suggest me a good 2.1 speakers below Rs3000....mostly for gaming and movies....

logi X 230

V

I heard X230 is out of production.....is it true?

Philips MMS430 2.1: 2.5k
Altec Lansing VS4121 2.1: 2.5k
Logitech X-230: 2.5k

Not to buy:

Creative MMS and Inspire series

V

Any speakers in the range of Rs.5000.....will there be any significant change/effect in sound if I increase my budget? What is the optimum amount I can spend on 2.1 speakers....

My main priority was music and I had Philips MMS430 2.1 for about 3yrs and they died recently. Their audio quality was superb. Then I bought Creative Inspire 4.1 M4500 which I didn't like at all as their sound quality was tinny and nowhere near to philips set. Finally, I bought Altec Lansing MX-5021 (THX certified)for 6.7k (now 6.3k) and believe me, the audio quality of this set is stunning and it's worth every penny.

If you don't have much 5.1 collection and if audio quality is your priority, you should really try Logitech X-2300 (for heavy bass <<hip-hop, disco, rap>>) and MX-5021 (for clean and clear audio <<indipop, india film music, pop, rock, country?>>)

X-2300 is around 8k
MX-5021 is around 6.3k

If your budget is strictly inside 5k. You better stick to the <3k range speakers.

Is MX 5021 good for games and movies.... I listen to music occasionally....so my priorities are games and movies....
Where can I buy them in Bangalore.....

are those movies divx movies or are they original DVD's?

and what games do you play.

Altec Lancing VS2421 is also gud for 2.5k

VS2421 has one major issue reported by many. It suffers from wireless interference a lot (Lot means a looot).

I usually play Action/FPS games like F.E.A.R, COD series etc....I watch both divx and DVD movies....

Check Logitech X-540 in that case.

V

is X-540 5.1?

yes.

V

OK......How much it costs?....What about MX 5021? I am particularly looking for 2.1

I would recommend MX-5021 anyday!!

X-540 costs around 5.5k

V

Is Bass is good in MX 5021? Can u suggest some place in Bangalore to buy this?

yes. Bass in MX-5021 is good.

Where do you live in Bangalore?

but if you are bass freak, go for Z-2300.

Indira Nagar....

I bought mine at SP Road. it's price is very high in places in Brigade Road.

V

I am confused which one to buy......

MX-5021: for crystal clear audio quality
Z-2300: For room thumping bass.

For non-action movies and gaming, Z-2300 is no match for MX-5021 but in action packed movies and bass-heavy music, it's the other way around.

For me, it's 80% music and 20% movies and I hate hip-hop and rap. So, the choice was clear for me
