Post a pic of your computer setup

[Reznor007]

Well, I saw the desktop thread, and decided we should have a full setup pic post.

My pic is slightly out of date, added a DVD player, SNES, and N64.

AH!! He has murdered his nintendo!

(Look at the boxes at the right in the shelf....that's a NES....or was...)

 

[hellknight]

[RPGlover12]

[Allnatural]

The sonic waves from that sub blasting you in the loins hasn't rendered you sterile, has it?lain:

 

[flow``]

what in the **** are you doing w/ those speakers

oh yea, i've got the same sound card nice eh?

once i move i'll post a pic of my setup.. right now its all messy since we're in the process of moving

 

[Pheo]

i will post a pic when i have my tv set up as my secondary monitor
I'm still trying to build the connector, only need a capacitor which radio shack does not carry
would like a sound system like that but i would have it a little bit further away from my puter, shielded or not the bass could offset my first person shooting and cause me to take a shot to the head

No, my brother killed it(broke a cartridge connector), I am in the process of fixing it.

Well...since the g/f takes "the shot" I'm not totally sure :devil:

B&W DM603-S2's....$1,100 per pair US. I have them as front and rear speakers...they are...nice

I highly recommend them to anyone with functioning ears. Bose can kiss my @$$

The fronts/rears are not shielded(IIRC) but the center and sub are, but they are far enough away as to not cause interference.

And it doesn't affect aim at all Sniping in UT in true 5.1 surround is simply awesome.

Hey! Bose kicks arse too. A friend of mine has a Bose system and it's very nice.

i'm working on getting a nice surround sound system but little $, however i would like to try those h3d glasses for gaming.

Nice setup, I've got a similar rig with Linn Kelidh speakers and a Rotel processor. But with that fine sound system, what are you doing watching your dvds through a pc monitor? get a big telly, you have no idea the difference it will make.

I still live with my parents, so my setup has to fit in a fairly small room Once I move out I'm getting a 64" 16:9 HDTV. Although my parents have a full home theater system also, so if I really want, I can watch on a real TV.

However, using DScaler(pc tv tuner program), I can use my computer as a very nice de-interlacer, with special filters, and digital auto calibration using THX Optimode or Avia discs.

EDIT: My CD player(in the pic), is a Rotel(RCD-951). Very nice stuff. Pricey though, that single disc tray loader was $450, compared to a $175 Sony 5 disc changer, but quality is more important

??? Go into a nice home theater store, and they will laugh at the name of Bose

They are some of the best mass consumer level speakers, but fall way short of high end speakers, and are way overpriced for what you get.

I would upgrade to an Audigy, but it has a BIG problem with MIDI: It doesn't work right Once the MIDI issue is fixed(hopefully with drivers....) I will upgrade.
