Hello

Hi SEN,
I'm thinking of buying new speakers, mainly for listening to music, however I want a surround system for movies and the like. Still, 80% of the usage will be due to music.
Most of the time: metal, but else really bass-intense music, so the subwoofer should be -really- powerfull.
My budget: 300-400 euros.

My current ones: Sony SRS-DB500 ( http://www.sony.de/product/pas-home-multichannel/srs-db500/technische-details#tab ) (german)

300 Watt (2x75 for Satellites, 1x150 for Sub)
50Hz - 500 kHz (sub)
250Hz - 20 kHz (satellite)
impedance: 4 Ohm
Bassreflex

Which of these two are better / fit my needs?

Well the second option has a little bit bigger of a subwoofer and a little more RMS power rating. I would be blindly guessing as to the quality of the tweeters, but I'm sure they sound great on both sets. So, I think the second one would have more bass, if that's what you're looking for.

Edit: Also, since the subwoofers are so close in power, you might want to go for the one that has the greater sensitivity. But I can't seem to find the sensitivity listed on the first one.

I don't understand how the 2nd one is 650W when the first is 280W.

On paper the 2nd one looks much better, but the first has great reviews.

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless

[2024-5-06. : 5:02 am]

Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value

Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius
