And the superorbs actually are bad because they put too much pressure on the CPU and not only cause the CPU to have a shorter life span, but can sometimes cause the CPU to suddenly stop working. *zen ------------------ soon-to-have system for oc'ing: Duron 700 MHz Alpha PAL6035 with Delta Black label fan Abit KT7 mobo Crucial 128MB PC133 some old 5GB 5400RPM drive Diamond Monster Fusion 16MB Voodoo Banshee Creative SB Live! 5.1 X-Gamer Creative 36x CDROM Sony Spressa 8x/4x/32x Re-Writable SMC 10/100 NIC 300W PSU Windows 98SE

Don't worry, everyone asks stupid questions sometimes Well it's actually better for the 4.1's to be hooked up to a 5.1 card because on a 5.1 card there is a front channel, rear channel, and center. The 4.1 speakers come with two 1/8" plugs that each plug into the front and rear channels of the 5.1 card. You just won't have a center channel, which is not much of a problem if you adjust the settings for your soundcard so that DVD's don't use the center channel. Hope I answered your question. *zen

Ok, thanks for clearing that up, I got confused. And no I don't own a KSW-10. Thanks for your help guys. *zen

boa12, I was talking about the speaker level. I was wondering whether the sub has an amplifier built in for speakers to hook up to. *zen

Thanks. *zen

I looked on the SVS website at the 25-31PC sub and they give you the amp wattage (190 RMS) but I could not find the dynamic power of that model sub and the higher models. If anyone could help, thanks. *zen

I looked on the specs page for the KSW-10 sub and under outputs it is blank. Does that mean you can't hook up speakers to it for output? *zen

Paragon, are you saying you built a sub from scratch? I would really like to learn more about building subs and how to do that, so if you or anyone else has any info, that'd be awesome. *zen BOOOM BOOOM BASS

thanks for the links. i'll check 'em out. hehe, if i told my friend that you said bose weren't hi-fi, he'd cut my throat. *zen

Oops, the links don't work directly. I attached them to the message this time, so just access the attached images. *zen

I decided to mess around with the logo also, because Paragon inspired me. Check these out: Sorry if they take a while to view, I did not want to compress them, they would lose quality. Paragon, I really like yours, if you could just modify it somehow to look more exciting... *zen

Someone mentioned BASH Technology, what the heck is that? Maybe I didn't read the 4.1 too thoroughly. *zen

Looks very cool. I agree with fawwaz, but don't know whether lightning would symbolize loud and powerful...maybe powerful. BTW, what program did you use? *zen

sure, i'm interested in some pics. that'd be cool. *zen

i searched for that name on napster, found nothing...can you type the name of the song again, and check if you made any errors? *zen

Admiral, I am getting my 4.1's on Tuesday, but even without listening to the 4.1's ever, I can trust you very much when you say that if you hook up diff speakers, the system will sound better. I was wondering, since you sound like you know a lot about speakers, that if I bought the Klipsch SB-2 Monitor (Synergy series) do you think that is a good replacement for the 4.1 sats? And if it isn't, could you give me a suggestion, other than the Paradigms, for substitute speakers? I also am much more of a music person that gamer or moviegoer, so audio quality is number one, but I don't have much money. Thanks. *zen

The reason you probably can't tell a difference audibly is because the main reason the new 4.1's sound better is because of the new crossovers. When you get the new CP-1, you get the headphone jack and the aux input, but you don't get the new speaker crossovers. But what would I know, I don't even have a 4,1 yet. *zen

I feel all warm and toasty just thinking about the Klipsch 4.1 sub. Ahhhh! The sceduled delivery for me in Tuesday! How can I stand this...? *zen

In the After Hours section of the latest PC Magazine, the Klipsch 2.1's are given the PC Magazine Editor's choice and score 5 red dots on a scale of 1-5. The Klipsch v.2-400's score 5 red dots, but do not make the Editor's choice. If you are evil and are interested in non-Klipsch audio products, I suggest you check out the issue. Anways, as The Rocker says, ROCK ON Klipsch! *zen

Hey does anyone remember the show "Duck Tales"? It was a kids cartoon show with lots of ducks to put it simply. It's theme song was something like: Da na na na na na na na, Duck Tales!!! Da na na na na na na na, Duck Tales!!! I personally think that Hofy should have an official song for his duct tape company, and that it should be like: Da na na na na na na na, Duct Tape!! Da na na na na na na na, Duct Tape!! Hey Hofy, if this song becomes a big hit, how about you set up my Pro's for a free mount and a percentage of your profits? GO DUCT TAPE!!!!s> *zen

hey that computersdivine.com site is awesome! thanks again for the link. *zen

seb, the reason for the 350 watts is because i am a big gamer, and in the future i will be buying a top-of-the-line video card that i guarantee will demand a lot of power. i am subscribed to pcgamer, and i have read lots articles pertaining to making sure you have enough power for a high-end graphics card. for example, the ge-force ultra cards require a decent amount of power. and in the past, like i said before, my video card was the reason for my system crashing because of the lack of power. but thank you for reminding me...i am going to ask a friend, who just built his computer with a new graphics card and ask how his power supply is doing. everyone else thanks for your help. *zen

i am 90% that this sort of thing is possible. if you go to a specialty electronics store (i.e. RadioShack) you might be able to find a 'switcher' which you connect all the outputs into, and then you connect the speakers to, and when you want to switch between them, there are either buttons for each output, or a slider. my friend had one of these, because he too has a tv and two computers in his room. i'm very sorry i don't have any specifics of this sort of thing, as i just saw it once at his house. if RadioShack doesn't know or have a such thing, you might want to go to an online electronics forum and ask, i guarantee they'll have info. *zen
