When you say...Blow Out.... Do you mean they play what you want to hear Very Loud without distortion..?? I don't understand what you mean by *Blow Out*..??

They're clearer, louder, and no audible distortion even at full volume. They're incredibly loud and incredible clear. Very good range, very full sound. Louder than most people's home theatre system. They're 500 watts RMS total (about 2000 peak) and the sub is dual 8's in a sixth order bandpass box. Look up some reviews online. They claim to be the loudest speakers specifically designed for computers and I believe it.

btw, I run them through an Audigy 2.

I'll tell ya.....I've owned a few premier speaker systems. I have a cpl right now.. LOL!!

The 640's set apart at the right spacing and the sub adjusted properley with a good sound card will surprise you..The 5.1 is Very Very distinctive!. Trust me on this one ;) I have folks come to my home here and tell me their home stereo doesn't sound near as good...I have a Sony Mini System home stereo, I haven't used in years..100W per, it cost me around $800.00 at the time I bought it a cpl years back :)

What sound card do you have? I've got the SB Live 5.1. I was thinking about getting the SB Audigy LS, but I wasn't sure if it was worth the upgrade. I wont be able to take full advantage of the 5.1 since I can't position the speakers behind me, but I'm sure I'll figure something out once i re-do my room.

I just bought a set of Klipsch ProMedia 5.1s. They blow the 680s out of the water. (but at list price of $399 USD, you expect a lot) I'll post pics with my workstation when I get my digital camera working.

I've heard the klipsch and I disagree. After listening to both, I picked up the logitechs.

Sound Blaster Live! 5.1Platinum....

I'm not a Gamer though.So I don't know if that will do what you want..It's a great card for Music Effects :) Comes with some great added effects also ;)

This is not a great pic but here is my system. Waiting for more $$$ to install new motherboard, processor and RAM!

I just need to get rid of the white speakers and printer now. The monitor is actually silver/black but you can't tell from the pic

Here is my modest little workstation. I have a Dell Latitude X300, a Dell Inspiron XPS, and a old desktop (it got a whooping 82 points on 3dMark03) acting as a print and file server on a Samsung LCD with TV tuner built in. Got crappy little creative speakers though - doesn't matter since I don't game very much. Sorry about the pic quality - have a very old camera.

Grrr, had to post after me, didnt you Aaron! Your workstation rocks!! Just wish I could find a TR for cheap! That or the Z1!! Paying around the ?1.6k mark here! :'(

lol:DD

hey you might want to check out the new fujitsu, it comes in black and white, has a fat 80GB harddrive, s-video out, and a built-in media card reader. that thing is seriously the only competitor to the TR family to date.

    • Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls by Fiza Ali Meta has announced Threads crossing a major milestone of 500 million monthly active users. And, at the heart of this growth sits something simple: communities. From books to basketball, parenting to music, Threads says its rise has been powered by people clustering around shared interests and, in turn, giving the platform its identity. In response, the platform is expanding its Communities feature beyond beta and introducing a set of new tools designed to make participation easier and more engaging. A redesigned Communities Hub will now appear in the main navigation menu, allowing users to jump between groups without leaving their feed. Each community will also receive a distinct Community Icon, giving them clearer visual identity and making them easier to recognise across the platform. Then there’s Community Progress, which is a kind of live gauge showing how close a topic is to becoming a full-fledged community, alongside guidance on how users can contribute to its development. In addition, Meta is also expanding its Community Champions programme, recognising more users who actively contribute to community engagement. And then things go more local; Local Communities is already available in 100 countries, including North America, South America, Asia, and Europe but are now rolling out with native-language tags starting in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. The platform is also expanding Live Chats to more communities in the coming weeks, adding features such as co-hosting and the ability to quote moments directly into users’ feeds. Beyond communities, Meta is tightening the loop between users and their feeds. Earlier this year came "Dear Algo," a feature that lets people tell Threads what they want more or less of. Now it’s being paired with a new tool, "Your Algo." It allows people to adjust how frequently certain topics appear, with options lasting one, three, or seven days. Meta says these preferences remain private and can be managed alongside “Dear Algo” in a unified settings hub. The rollout begins in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Finally, the company says these changes are part of an ongoing effort to refine Threads based on user feedback and that further updates will continue as the platform evolves.
