I am looking for new desktop speakers - Off-topic

Hey people as I said in the title I am looking for some new speakers for my desktop. However, thanks to my current dual monitor setup I need either really short speakers or something like laptop sound bar so the speakers don't get hidden behind the monitors. So if someone has any suggestions that be great.

No I do not unfortunately, here is a pic to show how much space I have, as you can see I currently already have a speaker hidden behind them.

Bump I'd still like to hear some suggestions, preferably for speakers under 100 dollars and I only need 2 speakers since I wouldn't be able to spread out surround sound speakers properly in the room I have my computer in.

Under your budget are the m-audio av30 speakers.

At $149, I'd definitely recommend the av40.

New "best" Android music-app --> Songbird! :)

Hey folks!
Just have (unintended) found the new Songbird App in the market...and impressed as I am, I thought it would be worth sharing the news (while hoping that not everybody here knew the app before me?!)
Coming from PowerAmp, I´m really overwhelmed by it´s functionality and look and feel (not that straight Iphone clone many of these other musicplayers are)...just try it yourselves-- https://market.android.com/details?id=com.songbirdnest.mediaplayer&feature=search_result
...one thing: the baby hasn´t an EQ...I hope they will integrate it with the next update, than it may be a great warrior to throw PowerAmp from it´s throne

Nothing wrong with PowerAMP - I thing so. Currently, I use it and is the best for me.
I guess everyone likes something new. A lot of people like the changes.
Besides, competition creates development

Absolutely nothing! I´m just not really touched by the design...and the very important difference, beside what spalm has meantioned before, Songbird is for free!
Hmmmm still prefer winamp to the rest. Prefer the Widgets and lockscreen. Hyperdroid rom has nice music quality so don't need power amps eq. Worst comes to the worst ill just use dsp

I checked the application.
It's simple, clean and looks good. I do not know how to download the cover - is it even possible in this app. Small personalization options. For me, there are several things missing in it. But it is a good alternative because (what brooon has already wrote) it is free
For me still the best is PowerAMP

Asus official pogo dock and leather case

I'm kinda meh about all those. Even the dock, with no HDMI or some other connectors I don't see the point to it.
I'm unhappy with the cases out now and if this case is slim enough and has magnet lock and close and some sort of stand mechanism, I'd pay 50ish bucks for it. The cases out now are pretty good for their ten dollar price tags but I want something nicer.

It's called business strategy. No HDMI out on the device or the dock means you have to by the Q. Stupid, yeah, but business wise, that's how the game works. Why put in HDMI when we can charge them $300 to stream everything?
I would love to purchase the Q, but I just spent $200 on this tablet. I bought it because I wanted something cheap yet good (which I got). The only way i'll get the Q is if someone else buys it for me (HA!) or I win it in a competition (....HAHAHAHA! Yeah, right, I NEVER win anything, lol).
But yeah, so there's your business reason for no HDMI.

POGO wouldn't support HDMI anyway, not enough pins... besides the whole point of not having HDMI is that you will be able to do it wirelessly.
Should start seeing this very soon using WiFi direct and the Miracast protocols. The hardware is already there to do it in the Nexus 7

Free Music

Some good free tunes at the Play store today. Check out the "Free New Indie, Hip-Hop, Electronic and More" section. I seldom find anything I like, but took 6 of 10 of these!
Call me old school, but I still buy all my music. If I want it on my tab or phone I just rip it at 320kbps and off we go.
Dam play store dont work in my country (music and movies section)
Not sure how to access free music section from the Play store on the Nexus.... Did you find it there or on a pc?
Cheers,
Jon

I did it on a PC, but looking at my Nexus, if you just scroll down to the bottom of the screen it's the 3rd block up on the left. It's all very "bassy", so listening with earbuds or on a PC sounds much better.

Odd Gear Discovery In PowerOn.ogg, TW_Touch.ogg, LowBattery.ogg files

well I was just playing around with the sound file from the gear and played the "PowerOn.ogg", "TW_Touch.ogg", "LowBattery.ogg" file in VLC and look what was embedded in the file. LOL. Thought I would just share.

[Q] speaker volum too law

Hi guys, I have two problems I do not know how to solve:
1-level audio speaker is too low when I listen to music or I watch netflix, is there a way to increase audio power?
I read somewhere about media volum limiter but I can not find it on my notes even if I'm looking for it I do not find this option
2- if I block a phone number from the call log using pull-down menus, the number appears blocked but it is not, to block it I really have to use phone settings / block numbers, is it a bug?
Regarding your first question, yes the volume in note 8 is not loud, but you can enhace it in settings>sonds and vibrations>sound quality and effects>equalizer, custom, and there put all freqs to max, besides, you can adjust the performance mode to entertainment

I tried this way, but if I cover the speaker with my hand I hear the sound lower, very strange.
