I've had my 2.1 system for years. Has a good sub, doesn't take up a lot of space and sounds good. The headphones are for my new ---uvula--- neighbor that can't seem to keep it down. I need something with good noise cancelation. |

*sigh* Looks like I might have gotten screwed out of case #2. When I ordered it amazon said it was out of stock and was due to be restocked in a couple of days. It's supposed to arrive Friday and it still hadn't shipped so I went to the listing and the dreaded "currently unavailable, we don't know when or if this item will be back in stock" message was there. I'll wait until Friday, but odds are I'm cancelling and going on a wild goose chase yet again. I think the fates are conspiring against me. |

Well they just shipped the case, so I guess amazon made a liar out of me. As for the speakers.... yeah I thought about it, but the problem is this kid must be deaf or something to want to turn things up that loud and I suffer from migraines so I'd probably only make it worse for myself. So on to monitors: I found these two in my email this morning: https://slickdeals.net/f/14066273-28-lenovo-l28u-30-4k-uhd-ips-monitor-249?src=frontpage https://slickdeals.net/f/14065394-acer-cb271hu-bmidprx-27-16-9-ips-monitor-free-shipping-219-99?src=jfy%7Crecombee%7C7632b4f9-c585-4c7c-892a-005eee99d09e Honestly 4k (or even 2k) is probably too much as is the size, but a really good quality 1080p monitor seems to be around $200 anyway. It might make sense to get something that'll have specs to grow with the times as I don't replace my monitors that often. Opinions? |

Opinions? --- End quote --- Couldn't view those links (got 403 Forbidden errors for some reason). IMHO, 4K is only really worth it if you're going to a larger size (e.g. 32" or above) and have a specific need for it, like gaming in 4K. For something in the 27/28" range, I'd probably stick with 1080p or at most 1440p in the form of a decent quality IPS LCD screen. |
