The incredible little T-Amp
Saturday, February 18th, 2006
First, a note: I’m loving this server!! Blistering speed and stability! Woo.
So I bought these computer speakers a while back just so my computer could make sound, and recently I’ve been fed up with their horrible sound quality. It’s just a cheap 2.1 channel system from Creative, so I didn’t really expect much, but still, I was disappointed. On the off chance that it might sound better, I decided to switch out its two crappy little speakers with my KLH 911B bookshelf speakers (using the amplifier built into the Creative subwoofer).
Needless to say, the quality was still horrible. No stereo separation, bad frequency response, flat sound… the amplifier was probably finely (or unfinely) tuned to the speakers that came with it. With that in mind, I ordered the Sonic Impact T-Amp from Thinkgeek ($30) to improve the setup.
This little amp is simply amazing. ‘Nuff said. Read on for more thoughts.
