You should just take a punt on a decent looking one on the off chance that it is going to be better than a sheet of paper. Laughing

The only thing I can see is that they say something like "Polk". Unfortunately looking at a picture of them doesn't really make me appreciate the sound of them. Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn! "The sky was the color of a TV tuned to a dead station" - Neuromancer

Those Polks are some of the best sounding speakers that I've ever heard, I used to use them in my den/living room until I switched to a pair of TSi200 (for their bi-amping capability) and 6 OWM3's (for surrounds).

Spoiler:

Good buy, those!

Also, is that a 226BW that I spy on the far left of that pic?

I was going to get some of their floor standing ones but I couldn't think of a way it'd work with my computer desk lol and I wasn't going to waste that potential with using them as rear's.

It's a 931bw btw Razz

edit: disregard, I just looked up that monitor. I was thinking it was bigger than that, for some reason. Stupid South Koreans and their model number naming hierarchy idiocies.

You'd have to ask Garus about that. I wish that I had the files for that world so I could go and burn your house down for the memories...

Only recently, as I had to start from scratch. I also decided to put some torches in it to take advantage of the new lighting engine that Notch is using now.

The one thing that I really want is some 3D SBS goodness now. Call me a derp for wanting to mine in 3D, but I think that would be the best use of 3D in a game.
