 Posted: Thu, 29th Mar 2018 02:42 Post subject: Suggestions-5.1 system -ACTIVE- need help |
|
 |
hy my fellow Humpers,
i need a new 5.1 system, my old one (8years old) died and i need some suggestions before i order..
Ok, first things first, i only have 100 Euro, not more.
I want 5.1, no stereo and i dont have an receiver, so it has to be an ACTIVE 5.1 system..
I looked trough some stuff and found 4 systems, what i want from you guys now, is what would be the best out of those 4.
Or, if you have a better suggestion please tell me..
here are the 4 i found in my Price range.
(wich one would be the best value?)
1. auvisio 5 1 Soundsystem: Analoges 5.1-speaker-System für PC, TV, DVD, Beamer & Co., 120 W (Surround System)
https://www.amazon.de/auvisio-Soundsystem-Analoges-5-1-Lautsprecher-System-Surround/dp/B074H1N7XV/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
2. Trust 5.1 PC-Lautsprecher Kabelgebunden GXT 658 Tytan 90W
https://www.digitalo.de/products/870222/Trust-5.1-PC-Lautsprecher-Kabelgebunden-GXT-658-Tytan-90W-Schwarz.html?ref=28&utm_source=preisvergleichat&utm_medium=CPC&utm_campaign=S608991
3. Trust 5.1 PC-Lautsprecher Kabelgebunden Vigor 75W Braun
https://www.voelkner.de/products/1016061/Trust-5.1-PC-Lautsprecher-Kabelgebunden-Vigor-75W-Braun.html?ref=28&utm_source=preisvergleichat&utm_medium=CPC&utm_campaign=S087011
4. Areal 525 WD aktives 5.1-Kanal-Lautsprechersystem 125W RMS
https://www.auna.de/Lautsprecher/5-1-Lautsprechersysteme/Areal-525-WD-aktives-5-1-Kanal-Lautsprechersystem-125W-RMS-Fernbedienung-Kirschbaum.html
The price point is spot on for me on these.
Please dont tell me i can has something better for more money, i dont have that money, 100 is all i have for this, and i need 5.1 with the posibility of analog conection for my PC/Media Center..
Of course i would love to get an TEUFEL system, but its to expensive for me..so 100 will have to do.
So, my question would be, wich has teh best value for my money, or IF YOU GUYS know something better in that price range let me know please..
Thanks guys...

welp, i just ordered...
i took the Trust 5.1 PC-Lautsprecher Kabelgebunden Vigor 150W.
They just went down in price because of Eastern
65 Euro now...
the TRUST GXT 658 went up in price to 102 euro 
So i guess the Vigor is the best deal now..
If you guys want an review, i get them on Saturday, so if there are a few people who want to know how they are lemme know
Thanks for the "Help" lol..

Do NOT buy Trust. Trust is cheap crap that dies a quick death. I'd cancel your order if I could. I haven't had a single Trust item that lasted more than a year without showing some serious defect. Friends bought speakers of their a few back and they broke after a single weekend - Trust refused to replace them, saying they had overloaded the speakers. That's bullshit really - it's not like you got a separate receiver that can overload them.

 cmon. how bad can it be?
damnit..
Lucky me, i have 2 years warranty on those and can send them back or let them replaced or get my whole money back if they fail, even after one year..
Prime amazon extra service 
So, ill just try them and if i dont like what i hear and see, ill just send them back with no questions asked..
greetz
edit:
And still none of you had a better suggestion...

i got this
https://www.amazon.de/Logitech-Z506-watts-Lautsprechersystem-schwarz/dp/B003U506QU/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1522346152&sr=8-2
nothing fancy but just like you i didn't wanted to pay more then 100 euros and i was happy with my old logitech sound system before, so i thought why not.
almost same price as the old model, very nice subwoofer, sadly the speakers are a little bit worse then on the old system. still ok for me and for one small room it's more then enough.
i know logitech isn't the best company out there but i would rather buy something from them then from trust, amazon prime or not doesn't matter for me.
got them now for 2 years and i use them every day for hours and can't complain. for my taste it's enough. also even if the 2 year warranty is over, the logitech support is pretty good.
my keyboard got replaced after keys falling out after 3 years, even tho warranty was done for a long time. received multiple g502 mice, after telling them that something is broke like the mousewheel or whatever. so i guess if my sound system will brake they will handle it too.

Thanks, finally someone with an point..
well, i had them on watch too, but wasnt shure about logitech, i only have mice from them, nothing else (mx518 and 2 g400) and a friend has teh same logitech system. I didnt like the satelites to be honest, the center speaker was way to small and the voices didnt came out good, thats why i looked also for a good center speaker (with 2 speakers as center), that was one point why i didnt take the logitech one..
How loud can you turn it before the bass sounds strange?
If you say the Logitech is better then the VIGOR, i might consider sending the Trust ones back after i tested them and get the Logitech one..
Also, where would i change volume on the logitech, i dont see any knob on the sub.
And the worst thing is when the remote controll breaks and you cant set the volume..Wich happened to my old system..its stuck @ 5% volume and the remote controll isnt avaiable anywhere, the company went bankrott in 2003? haha... it was called NIC 5.1 system white piano lack...lol.. it did live 8 years doh, and costed only 50 euro..
anyway, THX for the reply mate.. 
ps. if i had the money for it, i would love to have those haha:
Teufel Consono 25 Mk3 "5.1-Set"
(but it isnt aktive, so you would need an receiver too)
https://www.amazon.de/Teufel-Consono-5-1-Set-Schwarz-Heimkino-Lautsprecher-Set/dp/B00FF9IBE8/ref=sr_1_20?ie=UTF8&qid=1522348285&sr=8-20&keywords=Teufel
Or this nice baby here, also to expensive, but damn it has nice extras..(still shady center box from the looks)
Logitech Z906 3D Stereo Lautsprecher THX (Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound und 500 Watt)
https://www.amazon.de/dp/B004PGM9KY/ref=psdc_3121691_t2_B003U506QU
maybe next year

after reading a bit more and digging some tests in the webz, you are all right, TRUST has a very shady image it seems, 3 month and speakers are dead, the sub gets too hot and the connections are bad.
So, i tried to cancel it, but amazon wont let me, even doh its still at amazons pack station. So, i have to refuse taking the package and hopefully theyll send my money back quickly...
After this, i wanted to buy the Logitech z506, wich sounds pretty all right to me on reviews, tests and forums, so i went ahead and ordered it, but strangely all of a sudden Amazon sayd i can only pay with credit card now, no bank account etc.. WTF? what gives? So i wrote them an email telling them if they dont want my money, so it be, ill go somewhere else then and will cancel my prime (its free for 30 days, so no loss) and amazon account as soon as i have my money back. I dont use a credit card, nor do i want one , in fact, only around 30 % of the german population use credit cards.. Totally stupid move from amazon, well i guess they wanna force the Amazon credit card they have, cause, right at that moment they showed me theyr good damn Amazon credit card AD in my face..Fuck Amazon. Was ein Saftladen, ey...
well, end of story, i ordered it at Mindfactory for 15 euro less  and even was allowed to pay the way i wanted. I even could chose over 8 methods of paying.. unlike amazon, where it is ether bank (wich they dont want), credit card, pointsor Ideal, whatever that is...
Puuhhh, am i glad i didnt pay for Prime...
Rent over..
THX to Freiwald, who pointed me in the right direction with the 5.1 system.. THX mate
Oh, HAPPY EASTERN you dirty Humpers...

inb4 "pfff what crap, why didn't you get the souddicks 87ZX3 instead? It's only 430€  "
And thanks for the thread and freiwalda's suggestions because I might be buying one of these soon, or a decent 2.1 around the same price since there's no room here for 5.1 
Weird that there are no korean/chinese sets for <100€ that trade blows with the usual 250-300 yuropean brands, as you have with in ear and over ear headphones... or are there?

The reason no one dont have anything to recommend is that there is no 5.1 active system at 100e budget that can be recommended, they are all shit.

Update....
I got them today..
To be honest they arent bad, kinda good build quality for the money..so thats good.
After setting it all up, the sound was TERRIBLE.
So, if you use them on an PC, they arent for people who dont know how to setup theyr soundcard...Thats for shure..
After fidling around with my crappy onboard soundcard, i found teh right settings..Before the Voices came out of teh sub, or also in the sub..
Sounded really bad.. REALTEK isnt a good choice id say, but hey my Creative X-FI Gamer died, or at least i think it did, might also be the PCI slot, not shure didnt have time or didnt wanted to check..
Pics from my Realtek Settings working with the z506 after fiddling around for an hour:
(Before you ask, this is not the ORIGINAL Driver Software for realtek..Its the "Realtek X-Fi MODDED Drivers -Gamespirit V.2.75 (3.99) 6.01.7399) So things will be different for the normal Realtek user...
Anyway, after i found teh right settings, the speaker system does sound pretty impresive for what it is.. Its a nice and clear sound now, with good Highs, ok - good Medium Sound and of course the Sub..Man, that was the bigest thing to tweak..
It is ok, nothing awesome, but we all knew this..Way to little to make a party haha.. But when youre in a range of 4 meters within the sub. its totaly ok, No scratching or itching, no oversteering, all fine..
Music is pretty good (after fiddling around a lot), Movies are also nice, only teh highs are kinda strange, but i think its a problem of teh Player..You also can feel the explosions on your Ass Even when siiting on the couch and watching a movie from there..It could be a tad harder, but hey, for that Price its all fine..
ALso some people compalint about teh humming and sound out of teh speakers when there is no sound playing.
Well, im happy to tell you that there is NO humming from the sub, even with my head 10cm away i cant hear anything..
Same with the speakers, rear, left and right all fine, no noise or statik, Left front and Center also fine. Only the Right Front has very very littel statik noise, but you will only hear it when you go 5-8 cm near it with the ear..
Could be because of teh cable shielding or maybe its because teh cable goes right near the PSU and GPU...how knows?!?!
But its not hearable at all if you sitting ion front of your PC and having everything OFF besides the z506..
Last but least, games...Well, to be honest, didnt test yet..im going out having dinner with some friends..
Gonna test Gaming later this day or tomorow and gonna post it also..
If you got any questions aboput teh system feel free to ask
Now im off...HUNGRY!!!!!!!!!!!
