rojo Audioholic Samurai Feb 19, 2014 2,713 0 113 Johnson City, TN Aug 13, 2015 #2,628 @Lulimet I thought you were going to sell some laptops, not buy more. Change your mind about re-acquiring a pair of Veras? I bought a laptop, too -- a used one from an Amazon seller for $200. It just arrived this afternoon. It's an HP Pavilion x360 Ultrabook. It has a quad-core Pentium N 2.16GHz processor, 4GB RAM, an 11.6" display, brushed aluminum palm rest, and weighs < 3 lbs. I thought about getting a 500 / 512GB SSD for it, but the 500GB platter drive seems to be plenty fast for now. Where it really gets fun is when I flip the display all the way behind the keyboard and put it into tablet mode. Its multi-touch screen is set to auto-rotate, and I can switch from landscape to portrait just by turning it upright, just like my phone. It came with Win 8.1, which lasted for about 2 hours while I created a factory recovery image then forced a clean upgrade to 10. (Device Manager shows one Unknown Device after the Windows Update installed all it knew to install, but it doesn't seem to be anything I can't live without. I haven't discovered yet what it is that doesn't work.) I doubt I'll do much CAD on it, but I daresay it will end up with REW and an ebook reader of some sort sooner or later.

Now I can pretend to be a pro Click to expand... What's the word on those CR-3? Did you pay $100 for the pair? I see that is what Amazon has them for http://www.amazon.com/Mackie-CR-CR3...qid=1439843364&sr=8-1&keywords=studio+monitor In particular, how would these work as a "garage speaker" or a "beater speaker"? I'm looking for something relatively small that I could set up easily in various locations where I'm working, just background music, and I wouldn't be irritated if they got dirty/greasy. For the price, these seem to fit the bill. What's your opinion on these so far??? Could these plug into my phone (Galaxy S6 Active) with ease?

Lulimet Full Audioholic Apr 7, 2011 477 0 43 Mukilteo, WA Aug 17, 2015 #2,633 I paid $100 but didn't get them Amazon because they charge sales tax here in WA. They are too good to be garage speakers or beaters. They don't deserve to get dusty and dirty And yes, you can plug them into your phone no problem. Mackie even supplies the 3.5mm to RCA stereo cable. Just remember that one of the speakers is powered and need to be plugged into an outlet. Highly recommended as desktop speakers.

Ordered the DVD 5.1 of Division Bell by Pink Floyd. It's lossy, but $14.99 is a whole lot cheaper than $100 for the deluxe with hi-res surround. Besides that I've been on quite a hip hop kick.
