Ive been hearing about how good the price to performance is on Edifier speakers for years now... but i just never had the money.
Been running with busted speakers for nigh on two years now.
i have to place the speakers very carefully, cause of a loose contact, or they wont both work.
You can imagine how sick you can get of that after two fucking years.
Im happy you got a good deal!
mine were recommended by /budgetaudiophile they are really big on price to performance, so i trusted what the guy said.
Thanks! Loose contacts are so annoying. I'm surprised you put up with it for two years!
I did a bunch of research and Edifier is supposed to be good entry level audiophile speakers that don't break the bank.
Audiophile approved and they can be a bit snobbish.

@Orioncle haha, yep, they can be. my post got downvoted just for asking for recommendations on a good speaker upgrade that doesnt break the bank... which is the entire point of that subreddit. 🙄
I'm sure it did get downvotes. All the reddit posts I've seen regarding the Edifier's were begrudgingly approved by the audiophiles. So they are great in my book :rofl:

Bought an OG PS4 bundle with a pack of games and 2 controllers... The best part it came with a 2TB HDD (it was advertised as 1TB), the 20th Anniversary Controller, Deadpool game (it has a good resale value), and RDR2 Special Edition.

I'll sell most stuff, keep the 20the Anniversary PS4 controller. :)

No stick drift, thankfully.
 
I never did remember last weekend to follow up, had a massive win at the flea market on Saturday, but also got lucky at a local shop two days earlier with other little finds in the week too. That first image has that. The anime stuff was with Slayers like $25 total for ($50/ea) in value of DVDs and Trigun is a quality boot that was cheap. A game shop got in MK7 paid retail, but the Four Score and cables were new sealed(still are) for $30 and $3 respectively which is crazy. They also had that shadowgate for 12. The SFC game I had mailed in been wanting it awhile as it's tied to that Neo Drift Out neogeo game and it's good.

The flea was a costly knockout. The 9 games (was 11, read on) were 80 (Samurai Shodown + Killer Intinct and the other games right/under it), the snes jack+ds grip were 5, and the antique toy was just 10. Inside is what went better, Ecco was just $15 a nice deal, The Win was Harvest Moon, talked it down from 340 to 200 +Godzilla and SuperC for the NES which were part of the $80 bundle. Star Trek was an online deal for 1/2 the going rate.

I never thought I'd have Harvest Moon again as I refuse to pay like 300, 400, 500 for a game, not happening and I'm thrilled as it was an old loss.

i seem to be the only one here spending cash like its going out of style..
I'm usually bundling my purchases because then there is something interesting for everyone and it's less time consuming to make pictures of the purchases.
But a few weeks ago I had the great idea to switch my CPU fan (it made some noises and it didn't cool enough anyways). But after changing the fan, the computer didn't work anymore. It had a CPU post. I found out that the CPU socket pins of the mainboard were bent so I had to buy a new mainboard. But now everything works again :)
 
Last edited by Technicmaster0,
first I tried to bend the pins back but that didn't help :/ they are so small and also springy. There is probably no hope if they aren't springy anymore :/
sometimes that actually works and if the pins break off, if you insert them in the hole and put the cpu in... that WILL still work.
Ive seen people on youtube do that exact thing.
... i still dont think thats a great solution tho!
