I-trigue Speakers

Post by ^Sparco^ »

OK Im really tired of my 2.0 system (1996) and want to get new speakers.

I want a 2.1 system. I like the I-trigue series... has any of you got some I-trigue Speakers from Creative??? I think Stiggy had ones but I don't know the model and he is not here :D

Here are the prices in my local store:
  • CREATIVE I-TRI. 3200 2.1 RETAIL 47,22€
  • CREATIVE I-TRI. 3400 2.1 RETAIL 77,12€

  • CREATIVE I-TRI. 3600 2.1 RETAIL 113,77€

_______

-3600:

_____________

Considering that I don't want to spend too much money... Does it really worth to get one of the newest speakers?? I will use them for gaming and music. I want special quality in music playing, Ultra-Bass and high volume 8)

Which is better? I have the feeling that the 3500 is crap... Vote in the poll and please don't suggest me to get a 5.1 system, I want a 2.1!
Thanks!! ^_^

If you got the cash, then splash some at that 3400 model. not the most expensive which is good because it looks like that's all you need.

Alternatively, If you have a decent pair of hi-fi speakers, like my Keff's, you can hook them up to a new amp and connect the amp to a pc.

That way, you'll have your speakers, a new amp, and the best sound ever!

Why buy a Reatil version?

Anyway, the 3450 is the best. Highest amount of watts on the subwoofer, that's all that counts ^^

Yeah I finally got them!! 8) 8) 8)
I-trigue 3400 hehe. Their quality is great. Sound good as hell!!

Bad thing is I have a crappy Realtek integrated soundcard. So Im not completely satisfied with the sound. It's infinitely better compared to my previous speakers though.

The I-trigue 3400 is a nice and beautiful 2.1 system. Those little satellites reproduce the high sounds very well. It's specially noticeable when playing CD tracks. The subwoofer (24watts RMS) is powerful enough, and it's got a bass control to adjust the levels the way you want: THIS is fine tuning and no what we get in nfsu2 8) hehe.

Talking about nfsu2, I have tried it with my brand new speakers. WOW! A lot of new sounds I had never noticed. i.e. When you drive over the sidewalks, that rough sound. Or the Turbo sounds now are improved.

Hmmm... nothing more. If you want me to take a photo, just ask me :P

A good deal. Highly recommended if you are searching for something good to play music. Even with a Realtek ;)
Anyway Im planning to get a Audigy 2 ZS. Maybe next Christmas...
