    PC as a high quality digital transport

    I use a bitfenix prodigy case ITX system build, I love listening to music with my PC as I use foobar2000 and I couldn't live without it. So many ways to listen to my library and it's all there ready at a click. Filters are awesome, filtering by year, genre, play count, rating or combining them...

    Going from Monitor Audio RX1 to active speakers need help

    I want to move to active speakers because I don't have anywhere to put my amp and they're just cleaner for a desktop use. I have Monitor Audio RX1 speakers with CA 550a amplifier. Would switiching to Mackie MR5 Mk2 be a downgrade? Or maybe Yamaha HS80m but I heard the Mackies are better. Any...

    PA System vs Hifi 600 watt for £250!

    It says 800watt in the advert and 200W RMS – 400W max power. Aren't PA systems for outdoors and clubs etc? I heard a decent PA system costs much more than hi-fi, looking at 200k and a low budget PA sucks compared to a low budget hi-fi?

    Question for owners of Monitor Audio RX1

    I found out the problem. I had put up a piece of mdf on the wall with albums clipped on behind the right speaker (above). Just took it off and it sounds much better. Didn't think that could affect the sound so much. Now there is nothing on the walls behind the speakers. I'm happy again :)

    A question for the speaker manufacturers on here....

    Good question. I'm not a speaker manufacturer but found this on Monitor Audio website. "The gold dome tweeter is formed from a ceramic-coated aluminium/magnesium alloy, gold anodised to a specific thickness for ideal stiffness and damping characteristics. Its new profile and surround geometry...

    Question for owners of Monitor Audio RX1

    Thank you! I was sure they could be pushed in a little when I first bought them but you've just put my mind at rest. I had changed the bolt tension at the back acording to a little note that came with them. Yep these speakers do look sexy I got them in black oak but I always think about the...

    Question for owners of Monitor Audio RX1

    I don't know if it's a placebo but my speakers don't seem to sound as good as they used to or I'm just use to them now. Can someone please just double check if the driver part highlighed in the picutre can be pushed in? Even slightly or are they rock solid with no movement?

    Any suggestions for a subwoofer to go with Monitor Audio RX1?

    What would happen if I stuck a Monolith in this room?

    Do you match the colour of your subwoofer to your speakers? Big black ash subwoofers

    I have black ash speakers but because the BK Monolith is so huge I don't really want it in black, it'd be too much. Anyone agree? I think it looks really nice in oak like a nice table furniture but having a big black box looks a bit invading.

    Any suggestions for a subwoofer to go with Monitor Audio RX1?

    350cm by 288cm. Just a bedroom but was thinking of buying the Monolith and sticking it in the corner would fit perfect near my door.

    Any suggestions for a subwoofer to go with Monitor Audio RX1?

    There is no way I can afford the RXW12 and I heard MA subs aren't worth the money. Do I need to be careful when choosing a subwoofer to match these speakers? My budget is £400.
