Title: Cool speakers for cabinet
Post by: bioart on February 26, 2004, 10:49:21 pm

Hi All,

I just got these speakers to go into my "Artcade"

http://us.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=4&subcategory=26&product=477

The speakers boxes are screwed in and the speakers inside are 2.5" (more or less).  I will be putting two of these on top of the speaker (std place in UA2) and the other two will go either below the CP or in the back behind the cabinet for the surround effect (on games that use it)

They also have a remote control that will be mounted near the CP.

Anyone have experience with them?  Connections to the sub are RCA's which is a plus.

I have a Cambridge SoundWorks FourPointSurround FPS2000 setup attached to a Soundblaster Live 5.1. The speakers are similar to the ones you're getting and I've been extremely happy with them.

I have the Inspire 2.1 Creative Labs hacked to car speakers...running off of a receiver and 15 inch sub. Added some LED's for the fun of it.

I love the Blue LEDs.  If I ever build a modern-looking, non-retro  cab I will probably steal that idea!
