Need recommendations on a speaker stand

Alright, so I've had the unit for about a month now. In some ways, I'm totally delighted with it. There are certain songs where this thing just sings. Anyone who wants to know how perfect this things sounds when it's at its best should give a spin to Another One Bites The Dust by Queen.
On the other hand, if I had to choose, I guess I'm one of those rare individuals who'd prefer a more highly detailed treble to the (admittedly quite clean) thump of the Hi-Fi. Since the EQ settings on the iPod suck from that perspective, the best way to get adequate treble performance is to connect another device which gives greater EQ control.
That being said, I'll be damned if I don't cash in on the "ecology" of it all and use this thing with my iPod. Which means it comes down to placement. In particular, I'm hoping someone out there can recommend a speaker stand suitable to a person with my predilections.
I'm thinking something tall, but solid and sturdy, and something that stands alone, directly on the floor. But I'm not an "audiophile" (or whatever), so I don't know technically what it is that I'm asking for,
Maybe one of you out there does.
Give a shout if you can help. Thanks in advance..

Hi,
There are plenty of speaker stands offering in the market, my suggestions are:-
1. As normally, audiophile speaker stands are in pair, so it is not easy to buy just one, unless you manage to get one, otherwise, see whether you will find a stand for turntable, but which may be quite expensive.
2. I suggest that you go to the furniture shop instead, most of the stands there are made in Wood, which is a good material of iPod HiFi then "Metal", wooden stand makes the song (from digital music files) sound a bit "warmer".
3. The stand must be heavy and solid (but with no wheels)
4. Buy 3 pieces of cones (again I prefer wood then metal), put them between the surface of the stand and iPod HiFi, make sure with the spike direction points to the surface of the stand.
Just in case you do not understand of what speaker cones are

Still have 6 inspire mt1200 speaker stand adaptors available for trade

I have the 750 Gigaworks Speakers and now have a total of six Creative MT-1200 speaker stands. Only needed four until I broke one of the adapters, so I had to buy two more stands. (You can't buy the adapters separately here in the US)? If anyone out there isn't using the Megaworks/Gigaworks adapters from the stand kit, I would be happy to trade for the other Creative Inspire adapters that came along with my sets of speaker stands. Let me know if anyone has the adapters I need. They are so flimsy it seems so silly and extremely expensive to have to pay $70 plus shipping, just to replace two small adapters. Hope Creative will fix this little problem in the future. luvmyrescuedogsTucson,AZUSAThe 6 plastic adaptors that I still have available, fit the Inspire Speakers. They are the plastic ones that are horizontal and have one hole in them. The other long vertical Inspire Adaptors have already been traded to a forum member from The Netherlands.
I believe he said his Creative speakers were the Inspire 5700sAnyway, if anyone has the ones for my S750 Gigaworks, that I can trade for, please let me know.

First, let me thank the two Creative forum members who were able to trade their extra speaker stand plastic adapters to me for the extras ones that I have. It is very much appreciated. Now, if there is a forum moderator reading this message, then would it be possible to pass along my frustrations on being unable to order these very essential parts from Creative here in the US? Surely, I can't be the only person who's metal speaker stand has fallen over and broken that little plastic adapter. These stands are very prone to tipping over. If nothing else, why not make that adapter out of metal? When ordering our stands, why not let us just buy the adapters that fit our particular speaker, instead of giving us extras for two other models? These speaker stands are very overpriced and it seems wasteful to have to junk them because of the weakness of a little plastic part or to have to buy extra stands just to get the part needed. luvmyrescuedogs

Where to buy Speaker Stands for my Creative Inspire T7900 System in Germany?

Hi,
I'm trying to buy the MT-1200 Speaker Stands here in Germany. Any help where I could get them (even outside Germany) would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Here is what will work using your existing 4-3 cable and an extra 3.5mm cable. First unplug all the cables from the back of your card and your woofer. Then plug your new 3.5 cable (make sure you are using a stereo cable and not a mono one) into the black on the back of your card and the black (rear speakers) on the back of your woofer. Then reverse your 4-3 cable that came with your speakers. Take the 4 side of the plug and use that end on your card instead of the speaker side. With the 4 plugs hook the green plug to green on the card, orange plug to orange on the card and black plug to grey on the card. You do not need to use the grey plug, so just let it hang there or whatever. On the end with the three plugs, on the back of your woofer hook the green plug to green (front speakers), orange plug to orange (center and subwoofer) and the black plug to black (side speakers.) This is the only way that it would work for me. Simply unhooking the grey on the subwoofer and running an extra cable from there to the grey on the back of the card did not work for me. It has to do with the way Creative has the 4-3 plug wired and it combines rear and side speakers. You will notice this if you look at the colored plugs and compare the number of rings on the male plugs; some have two and some have three for the different channels. When I simply run an extra wire from grey to grey it still cuts out half my speakers. The above way I outlined works awesome and gives me true 7.1 sound. Good luck!

Need Recommendation

Sorry if this is wrong forums area, but I need this cleared up!
Hello, I would like to make an API/applet/graphics game in java. The game is where you control an empire and its resources, ect, ect. I decided to use java for a game like this, because of the so-call "easier" use of API and applet gfx than C/C++. I know a little bit of C lang, and a little bit of Java, but I need recommendation.
Question 1:
What is suggested to run a 2d game, with color graphics? And I want it to have the ability to play some sounds, and display jpegs when needed. I am confused if this is an applet that can do this? I want my game to be stand-alone, and not in a browser.
For example, I want it to show some gfx, while its in an API interface with a file menu, ect. But below it would be the 2d (applet?).
I know I have much to learn, but first before I get tutorial hunting, I need to KNOW what is possible to do this? Ty for help.
Question 2:
And I'd like some good tutorial links, and recommended books to help me for being a newb, and want to learn gfx, applet.

Answer 1:
Yes, an applet can play sounds, display images, etc.

Need recommend to build MB + CPU + VGA ....a question from Vietnam

1st, sry my E is not good...
My job is working with 60% Pr 40% Ae (full HD)
I need recommend to help me choose 3 option
CPU + MB (in VN they same price)
1.   i7 950 + X58
2.   i7 2600 + p8z68
3.   2xE5520 + asus Z8NA (2nd)

1.   GTX 570
2.   Nivida Quadro 1800 (because quadro 2000,3800,4800.. all supported is very difficult to buy it in VN) Quadro1800 can be GPU hacked ? (2nd)
My PSU 750W
RAM DDR3 Gskill buss 1333 4x4gb
a question from Vietnam, need to help so much
Thanks alot
Waitting for Harm recommend

I concur with Harm's recommendation. The Quadro 1800 is obsolete: It is based on the equally-obsolete GeForce 9600 GT but with only a 192-bit memory bus instead of a 256-bit memory bus. As such, the only memory configuration that was available on the Quadro 1800 was 768MB. Unfortunately, Premiere Pro CS5 requires a minimum of 765MB of free, unused graphics memory just to even enable GPU accelerated mode at all even with the hack. But since Windows itself eats up some of that 768MB, you'd be left with less than 750MB of free, unused graphics RAM with that Quadro 1800. As a result, Premiere Pro CS5 will be stuck in software-only mode even with the hack if you have the Quadro 1800 as the primary card.

Speaker Stands for I-trigue 5600

hey
I just bought I-trigue 5600 system and i was intending to get back speaker stands so that i can have them positioned properly.
Creative sight is not giving me any accessories for I-Trigue 5600 does any one know what are the stand style number of part number and where can i get those from in Australia
Any help will be appreciated
regards

Well i think i have the same problem as you with these exact speakers (i-trigue 5600). I found out it was the volume control not that long ago, so im guessing this is the same problem as you! Try lifting the black turner thing on the volume control away from it and turn it and see if the blue light comes on, mine came on for a second, but the volume control is definitely faulty. If you know of any way to get a volume control this would also help me :-) Peace outChris

I bought one Iphone a 3 weeks ago and I can´t listen what people speak with me, because de microphone doesn´t work, I need to use the speaker, somebody know what I need to do?

Just thought that I'd report that I've decided on my solution.
It seems that just making do with what I can find on the US store is the easiest and perhaps also the best way of going about it. All other methods mean trouble. I'm lucky that China hasn't outright blocked the US store, as they HAVE blocked iTunes music store in China already (something about a song about Tibet caused them to block the store entirely).
So yeah, just going to deal with it I guess. I should be grateful I'm getting anything at all, considering the country I'm in. Still, I just feel so ripped off sometimes when I pay for expensive devices and I can't even get much out of them do to my region. iPhones cost around $700 in China because there's no company like AT&T that you can just sign a contract with to get one, so you have to pay up-front for the phone, and get less features out of it in the end. Makes buying smart phones look like a waste of time and money sometimes, since you can't use the device to do what it was built to do due to censorship and not having any content for your region (though they do have a lot of Chinese apps that I can't use due to not knowing Chinese).

OT: Monitor/Speaker Stands

Hi guys,
I am really sorry for the OT but I am not sure who to turn to . I am looking into buying stands for my monitors and was wondering if anybody came across anything that might fit my requirements while surfing the net and would care to share links -- my current ones are soo unstable my heart is skipping a beat every time somebody passes by them with my monitors on them . Price is really irrelevant; what I am looking for is 35-36', metal, preferably four post but other configs are also welcome as long as they are stable, fillable is also prefered. They should be able to supoprt ~19kg/40lbs(for a pair of Dynaudio BM15A's), they will be on a thick carpet so spiking is a plus but not a must since the floor under the carpet is abrand new hardwood and will probably add coasters underneath :-| ... The main thing is stability. My current ones are 36' Bello's and at that weight/height they are no good (they were awesome with the Event 20/20bas).
Thank you very much in advance for all your help! I really appreciate it.
P.S. Just aquick note -- sound anchors are ...uu...well... awesome but ~$800 quote (before shipping) ... still debating... hence my current search for other options.

I need recommendations for an emac 1.42 and ibook 1.33 compatible external superdrive ?

I need recommendations for an emac 1.42 and ibook 1.33, OS 10.3 - 10.5 compatible external superdrive ?

If you need the drive to be able to boot those Macs, you'll need FireWire connectivity. If you ned to use a system optical disk to upgrade or re-install the OS. or repair your hard drive, you must boot from the optical drive. If either computer's built-in optical drive has failed, or does not support reading DVDs, you'l need to boot from an external sooner or later.
If all you need is a burner, then USB opticals are cheaper and should work fine.
This firm tests all their stuff for Mac compatibility:

N8 Loud Speaker, Stand Needed.

One of the only issues I have at the moment is that when the handset is laying on its back (how rude! lol) on a bed and other soft furnishings, like the sofa or sofa arm, the loudness of the speaker phone and ringing is reduced quite a lot due to the fact the only speaker is the one on the back.
One of the cases I bought for it makes it even worse due to it making the level of the back of the phone level with the speak and camera bit that sticks out. Making the sound of the ringer very low when even on a flat/hard surface.
I think I will have to have a couple of stands/chargers for the phone to be in so I can hear it ringing.
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/elegant-cradle-for-nokia-n8-black-p25765.htm
Does anyone know of a desktop charger or ideal stands, I'm also looking into a car holder for using the sat nav feature. But they have got to be wide enough for the case on the handset as well, so as for the car holder I think the official Nokia one wouldn't work very well.

@iseebird
Thanks for that, I've just ordered the CR-115 for the car.
Hopefully as it expands the phone will fit with the cover/case still on, only adds a couple of mm's to each side, so should do.
I'm not keen on that one Nokia have as an accessory for the N8 "CR-122", just looks big enough to get the bare handset in, also looks quite rough with no rubber or foam protection.

Need recommendation on all items to buy at same time

Thanks to the IRS wealth redistrobution racket, I now have unplanned money free to buy a complete home theater setup. I am looking to buy a LED Flat screen, audio / DVD/Blue Ray package, and whatever is required to stream movies and shows from my computer. I have a Linksys wireless router (WRT300N), an ALienwarre XPS 9000 (12GB ram, GTX 260 GPU, etc) and a 23 inch HD LCD panel for my comp area.I have read various manufact web sites and understand possibe compatability issues with TV / blue ray plaeyer, etc, so I'd like to get all the items in the same brand.I currently subscribe to Dish sat TV but am willing to cancel the extra channels and pay for web TV and movies since it appears at first glance that I would save a lot of cash by doing that.
My planning factors are:
1. Limited to max $3k
2. would like 46 inch minimum with 120 refresh.
3. wireless theater speakers preffered.
4. Wireless interent to TV or TV device. Can run cable if needed, but last option.
5. DVD / Blue Ray player (can be home theater combo like Sony offers).
I visited the Geek Squad web site and reviewed the consultation page, but am unclear if includes spec'ing a recommended system for the consult fee.
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum, Padishah.
Congrats for getting the IRS to fund your entertainment. Looks like you've got this well thought out.
I'd suggest only a few things...
The wireless speaker part of this isn't preferred, IMO. At most, a wireless rear speaker kit can be tolerated, but a quality HT system never sacrifices quality for cosmetics. Again, only my opinion.
In regards to streaming media, the Sony PS3 earns you a triple threat. Bluray, wireless media streaming/internet access, and gaming. Having a PS3 in your lineup is key to getting quality sound out of your $3k budget.
The consultation is a good idea if you do indeed plan on buying the gear from Best Buy. Depending on the quality of the installer, you may get excellent ideas, or total nonsense. Regardless, the money isn't lost.
