Creative Inspire T3000 2.1 system - bass TOO ****ING LOUD

I looked for a 2.1 system because I don't have the room for 5.1 and the likes. I read some good user reviews online on the Inspire T3000. So I bought them for 40 euros. It has two knobs, one for volume and one for bass level. Even if I turn the bass level all the way down (which means that the subwoofer is practically off) I find the bass too loud. Yes, the bass from the sattelites. Yes, this is the way most cheap multimedia speakers are. If you listen carefully, you'll find that's a lower midrange boost and not real bass. It's there to fool your ear and make you think you're hearing bass when the speaker actually has no bottom end. I don't think I can return this set, but I think I can't listen to it if I don't turn the bass down even more using the equalizer on winamp or something. You can try plugging up the vents. That will make the cabinet resonance smaller, higher frequency, and wider. It may make it sound lousy in some other way, but it won't hurt to wad up a paper towel and stuff it in there to see. Any other people using this set? Opinions? Hey, what do you want for forty bucks? You should be lucky you get any sound at all. Welcome to the wonderful world of shoddy consumer electronics crap. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |
