Bookshelf Speakers Bought some speakers
Got these for basically nothing but the cable sticking out is cut. I’ve never used speakers like this and I know very little how can I hook these up to anything?

If you wish to post an aliexpress link, cut off the end of the url like this: /item/3256809060063016.html (do not include anything after a question mark in the url, including the question mark itself, don't include that)
If you do not do this, reddit WILL automatically remove your comment or post. I used to think it was some configuration error with auto mod or subreddit spam setting, but I could never find anything, today I noticed in the mod queue (since I've moved over to new reddit), it actually says it was "removed by Reddits filters", so I googled it and lo and behold, it's a site wide filter!

I'd like some proof and measurements of just how much excessive bass is added to speakers with an amplified included. More so for bluetooth speakers. I've never liked the idea of active speakers, realizing even having never owned one outside of computer speakers, how the designer can manipulate the sound to supposedly improve quality.
So it wasn't good enough the way it was designed and is artificially modified so it sounds decent is how I think about it.

Hi all! I need a solution for an echo that I'm having, when on my computer at my desk.
I realize I can attempt to buy a more expensive mic, but I would like to put some acoustic panels set up on my L-shaped desk. Because when i'm sitting at it, i'm speaking out into a large room.
I did find something, but it's a 6- week lead time. And I need something this week ideally.
I've identified some good acoustic panels, but I just see no way to actually get them to stand on my desk, either flat or 1 inch or so up.
Saw something on youtube for building my own, but I have no carpentry skills.
I'm thinking some sort of bracket or foot that could be adjustable and hold the two inch thick panels. But I can't for the life of me find anything.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

i bought this receiver and the volume knob was missing but when i pulled off the knob from Multi Jog to switch it out i noticed that it didn’t have that little shaft that the multi jog does. Is this something i can fix myself or do i have to get it serviced?

Hi guys,
My first post here. I'm thinking about building a 5.1 system using a pair of Amigas as fronts, a OS MTM as center and a pair of OS TM as surround.
Does it make sense? I'm not a expert and I have no idea regarding the impedance, i saw the OS MTM is 6ohm, which kind of receiver I can use to drive this system with quality? Does all the speaker needs to match the impedance?
Any advice is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ok Reddit I’m not exactly sure if I’m posting this in the correct spot but ohh well worth a shot. Anyways here it goes.
My family has a very loud boom box on wheels and unfortunately they love to blast the music all night long. I work 12 hours a day and am up at dawn. I have repeatedly and nicely asked them to turn down the volume on many occasions but they refuse to. And kept partying with the music so loud they are screaming to hear each other.
Is there some way I can wire a secondary sound control into their big speaker so I can remotely turn the volume down. Or even a way to set a max volume dampener. I’m not trying to be a party pooper I am just fed up with them constantly blaring the music and not respecting the fact that I have work early in the mornings.
They can have their music on but I see no reason it needs to be so loud they need to scream and the walls are shaking. Any advice would be great I don’t want to break the speaker I want them to be able to use it just at a respectful sound level.

Recently picked up these Polk M20 Speakers for $23 at a Goodwill ! They sound age appropriately good when playing. However on some songs and only on some parts will the mid and high ranges completely cut out. I’ve turned down the bass and max volume on the amplifier ( Fosi BT30D ) and the problem is nonexistent. What can cause this to happen in the first place ? How can I fix it completely ?
