[HOW MANY PREAMPS HAVE YOU GONE THROUGH?]

Oh, and as for the speakers looking like they're not worth a dime, I think you haven't seen other computer speakers in a while, buddy... The Klipsch look like they're made in Heaven compared to other PC speakers!

Don't start talking crap about made in asia stuff...

Most of the stuff you have in your house is probbly made in asia. Xcept you don't know about it. And besides, I don't think they keep making special, made-in-asia, crappy preamps just for you. I'm having no trouble at all with my speakers. Don't you see you're being illogical here? I mean, it's pretty obvious that if the speakers' design and construction were crap, everybody would have the same problem as yours. It is not the case.

I'm guessing the problem is with the speakers themselves, not the preamp. Probbly in the sub's enclosed amp. You should send back the whole speaker system and have them send you a new one.

The cracking could come from somewhere else...

Check your connections, then mute all other inputs that you're not using.

And stop talking like that, there's no use. It just makes pple laugh at you for being such an irate a-hole.

[Is this setup any good?]

OK anyone wishing to answer me (please do!!!), could you please all asnwer my post in the in the general questions area instead?

Thanks a lot!

[Is this setup any good?]

OK guys, here's the deal. I just started getting into hifi hardware. I took a better look and an even better listen to my dad's stereo system in our library room.

The speakers are JBL 2800, the stereo receiver/amptuner is a Harman/Kardon HK 3300 and the CD player is a Sony Compact Disc Player CDP-C515. So what's up with that system? I find it sounds really good (I don't have audiophile ears yet), but it's in a pretty small room with carpeted floor and so I'm thinking maybe they're even better than they sound and their not giving their full potential because of the room setup...

So can anyone give me some info on those two systems? I tried looking on review sties but no luck this far... It's understandable cuz that system was bought a few years back (probably 1992 or around that time).

Any help would really be appreciated!!
