View Full Version : Need advices about speakers and mouse
ZePenguin 04-05-2002, 08:40:PM Well my intellimouse's buttons are not working well lately, so i'll need to buy a new one, it's getting boring...so anyone could give me an advice for buying a new one ? I need an optical with a wheel and 3 buttons, that's all i need...
I'm also considering buying speakers, but i don't really know what to buy...normally i'd buy a 2.1 system or maybe a 4.1, anyone could gimme advices about that ? And also tell me if there's a big difference between 2.1 and 4.1 ?!
tx :)

As for speaker...No DOubT.......A 5.1 Speaker will make your computer a home theatre system......(5 speakers 1 subwoofer)
IceBlu 04-05-2002, 09:19:PM A good mouse is the Microsoft Intelli Mouse Explorer Optical(thats what i have)
another good mouse is the Mouseman Dual Optical

:D OHH Boy :p
i have a 2.1 here ......and a 4.1 at home.....:) if ur needs are basic....then u don;t need a 4.1 system......but if u want to really have a 3D surround effect and theatre hall sound effects for DVDs , Music , games etc...then a 4.1 is the way to go baby :)
But if u goto see , its not really worth the Price difference .....as a 2.1 does a great job too
The Altec Lansing ATP3 is a good 2.1 system :)
ZePenguin 04-05-2002, 09:51:PM btw how do you connect those 2.1 and 4.1 ?

they come with connecting adapters.......all are inter connected obviously but just one plug into the CPU.......and one in the power....
ZePenguin 04-05-2002, 10:02:PM aren't there speakers with optical connectors ?
IceBlu 04-05-2002, 10:07:PM hmm...not sure....i'm sure the Lasning APT series don't have optical connectors....although i think some Harman Kardon ones do have em.....
Bose have em for sure :D:p
ZePenguin 04-05-2002, 10:10:PM Well i have optical connectors on my soundcard, so it would be better if i could use them for something :p
ZePenguin 04-05-2002, 10:18:PM Hehe i want these : http://mirror.bose.com/home_audio/ht_speakers/am15/images/pi_am15.jpg

hehhehe.....those are the ones that my dad has in the living room....but just 2 sets(4 totally) of speakers with the whoofer
Amika 05-05-2002, 10:49:PM 2.1,4.1, 5.1 stand for 2 speakers and one woofer, 4 = 4 speakers and so on... but you will have to have a good sound card to go with the speaker or else...
mouse... well, for me any mouse will do... as long as it has a scroll... :p
