Heh. I keep it on a pillow because the milk crate it's on pretty much does jack squat to muffle the PSX sounds. When I play that one it's usually late night and I have the volume turned down so everything is silent. It's really annoying to hear "re-er re-er re-er" constantly.

Are those B&W DM604 S2's ??? If so, I have the same ones. How do you like them?

Ksuperman171 · 06-19-2003, 03:07 AM

If your asking about the towers, no they aren't B&W's they are like them but made by a copycat brand Audio File.

Ksuperman171 · 06-19-2003, 03:11 AM

Sorry lost my train of thought

Even though they are a copycat brand they sound really good, probably not are good as the real ones but for what i paid im happy.

Here's mine...

The sweet spot (center speaker is right below the TV).

The DVD rack and a few posters.

A close up of the DVD rack.

Where the magic happens and the rear speakers.

The Halo figures. I'm still looking for Cortana.

manicsounds · 05-05-2004, 03:30 PM

and i am a bit behind with N64 being my 'latest' system,
but i am quite happy with systems I have.

Famicom [broke, but still have]
Game Boy [Original US]
Super Famicom
+Apaptor to play Super NES, Famicom, and NES games
Nintendo 64 [Japanese]
+Modified to play American games

IKEA_boy · 05-05-2004, 05:13 PM

Hey, manicsounds. Would you mind picking up a copy of Vib Ribbon for me?

I'll have to take some pictures of my setup now that I've moved it ever so slightly.

lostwire · 05-17-2004, 01:59 PM

I don't have any pics at the moment, but here's my gear:

Atari 2600 (a pair of sixers)
NES
SNES
Genesis
Sega CD
Gameboy (a pair)
PS2
Xbox

WTB: Colecovision

Well I just took some.

Here's the spread. On the sub to left is my NES, on the top right is my PS2, the second shelf from the bottom is my Xbox & below that is my SegaCD with Genesis. I'm an awful photographer so the picture on the TV looks like crap.

On the other side of the room sits a 2600 & a SNES, waiting to be plugged into the TV. Notice the fabulous books?

In my recording studio is a modified 2600 (separate audio/video outs) running Synthcart through a groovy seventies TV I bought at a flea market for $7.

brian · 06-23-2004, 04:08 AM

C'mon Lostwire, you had a month to get a Colecovision, now where is it? Best early 80's console, ever.

It's been all about my relatively new Xbox lately, but the Colecovision is still high on my list of must haves. I'm dying to play Smurf again!

sub780lime · 09-01-2004, 06:41 PM

man that snes is looking discolorful....couldnt help it

but nice setup, i need one oif those equipment racks, a shorter one, just for my consoles since my tv stand has room for everything else, i have no where to put my genesis or xbox right now, but ill get some pictures up soon since things have changed

Pezz · 10-02-2004, 03:37 AM

I have a Super nintendo ,Ps2, playstation,N64,Regular Nintendo,Sega Dreamcast,& a Gameboy color!

Ruined · 02-11-2005, 01:41 AM

here is my pc setup (surround speakers not shown)

Sycho · 02-11-2005, 02:09 AM

Is that a Audigy 2 ZS platuinm Pro I see? I thought you don't like creative. You also said the 5.1 gaming is for XBox.

no, its a audigy 4 pro, which is the first creative card to have an analog stage rivaling pro cards. I don't like creative, no, (how can you like a company that doesn't even put drivers on their website?) but in this case they put out a card that rivals the pro cards while still being a good gaming card.

5.1 gaming is for xbox

the setup i have on the pc is 4.0 and doesn't have a dd/dts a/v receiver etc, which wouldn't fit well in a computer room. Though the two sound relatively similar for gaming, physically they are very different. There is no way I could use a center channel with a PC, a sub would take up too much room, and surround speakers are already in an impractical place. So surround is best left to the home theater/TV room where you can hook up your consoles.

Sycho · 02-11-2005, 03:08 PM

so did you take my advice and try EAXHD? if not, download the halo demo, and american's army is also very good

Damian · 02-11-2005, 05:46 PM

You realize now Ruined you can no longer bash Sound Blaster products now that we know you own one right?

hey I own a ps2, didn't stop me from bashing it

Seriously though, I am impressed with the Audigy 4 PRO. Creative has finally put out a card that offers pro-audio quality while also offering good gaming. The best compromise between both worlds I have seen to date.

Looks sweet...those speakers? They look like they rock! Here I thought I was the only one with real speakers in my PC setup. I got a pair of some old Marantz SP2008's. Two way, 8"/mid-bass, and a 1" tweeter for each. They 'claim' to go down to 42Hz too.

Now...I didn't expect to see that keyboard, but did expect to see a very uncluttered area. The only thing that bothers me is that painting man.

It's creepy looking..

damien_crist · 01-02-2006, 11:18 PM

If ya wanna see my setup just hold up, although I warn it's a little not so crowded. And soon my xbox is going due to the sweet ebay winning bid on a brand new 360.

I have just realized after 15 minutes of trying to figure it out that I don't kno how to put this on this forum. So i made a website with the picture here it is.
The website with my picture that I took in my room

plissken99 · 01-07-2006, 06:54 AM

Well I finally got an LCD monitor and was able to clean up my PC gaming space, so I'm not ashamed to post it. Got the Samsung 930BF today(4MS response time, DVI). Also have P4 3.0 with Asus board, Geforce 6800GT OC, Audigy 2, with Klipsch 5.1 speakers. Oh, the katana is made of 4096 Layered dual steel folded blade, and if fully combat capable.

plissken99 · 01-07-2006, 06:56 AM

Thats the flash of the camera, not the lighting effect in Far Cry.

littlebib · 02-22-2006, 07:14 PM

I don't have any pictures yet, but I just replaced an old 25" TV with a new Olevia 26" LT26HVX that I picked up over the weekend at CompUSA for $499 (after rebates). Playing the Xbox 360 on that is just fantastic! Its nice in PGR to actually be able to read the descriptions of the cars.
