Hi friends,
I have I3 2100 3.1GHz CPU
Gigabyte GA H61MD2 B3 MoBo
Sapphire 6850GPU
Need good quality 2.1 PC audio system
Budget is 12k
Mainly old Hindi songs.
I liked SWAN M10 from its reviews. Or suggest any other good brand.
Do i need separate dedicated sound card? or internal/inbuilt would suffice?
If yes, which? Whats its approx. price?
Thanks

SWAN would be very good. SQ of that speaker is really good.
Also whats your preference, Music, Movies, Games ?? Please point them in priority.

Hi,

**Whats real life difference between Swan M10 and Swan M20W And M50W?

**Hows this......*www.boseindia.com/retail/bose-product-detail.aspx?Prd_Id=64&Cat_Id=655&Nav_Id=655

**My source is LG DVD player (around Rs 2k). What source should be used to increase sound quality in desktop speakers?

**Music (old Hindi, Gazals)>>Games>Movies.

Thanks

foobar is a small light weight music player(kinda like winamp when it used to be the preferred choice but later it got bloated like nero suite which now at full install takes ~1gb space just to burn cd/dvd)preferred by many today for its sound quality & now it supports wasapi.
foobar2000: Components Repository - WASAPI output support
Windows Audio Session API exclusive mode output support, allowing bit-exact output and muting all other sounds. Windows Vista SP1 or newer required

Hi, Since you are looking for 2.1, that means you want to stick to stereo sound.
You can go for this Sony HiFi MHC-GZR5D : Mini Hi-Fi System : Hi-Fi System : Sony India

I connect this and even without sound card they sound excellent. And my table top also looks good. Ha ha. Plus they can even play without you starting your PC also.

MHC-GZR5D is a music system actually. It sounds good. Even movies feels good. Check in a Sony World. 3 DVD disc changer, FM, and many other features u will get. And it can easily Shake my neighbour's home too :p ha ha
Just go to a Sony world and I am sure you will like it. 120W RMS x 2, 2 way Bass reflex. Swan is also nice but is it really loud like the MHC-GZR5D ? I doubt. Its RMS is rated lower than the Sony one in the above link. It depends on your ears actually.

Hi,
Sorry for very late reply. I am reviving same old thread as I didn't purchase above stuff due to cost and few other reasons.
Same two speakers short listed:
1. Swan D1080 IV
2. Swan 200MK II (Little high cost for me for sure)
Does addition of external sound card like Asus xonar U7 make difference in SQ?
Is this sound card necessary for above both speakers or only D1080?
Regards,

Asus xonar U7 is combo of DAC and amplifier?
Am I right?
Or suggest good SQ DAC / amplifier compatible with above system (if its going to make difference in SQ)
Regards
