MS-TECH LD-800 2.1 Soundsystem 50 watts RMS (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

Hi, I bought the sound system for my partner to spice up the sound of your flat screen slightly. My partner did not want to spend much money, nor puts so much emphasis on "POWER". Therefore I purchased this system for you and first tested on my TV (Sony Bravia).

Actually, you have to review the 2 - share: Once in general and then only price related. I start with "General": Goods goes down well packaged. The delivery took place within 2 days - great! There is a mini-manual prepared the Jed. completely sufficient. System unpacked, wired, and connected via the headphone output on my Sony Bravia TV. The first thing you notice is the natural hum of the system. And even when switching on or off "crack" it quite schön.Positiv are the settings for bass / treble / volume. A remote control does not exist. The power button is unfortunately attached -hinten- on the subwoofer, but OK.

The subwoofer deserves the name really. He is actually a "dark Mittentöner". By contrast, the satellite is exactly the opposite: from the middle of no trace, but if you turn the treble, this sounds extremely "sharp". Hence my recommendation: Fully open the subwoofer, and the satellite only minimal. Instead hinzuschalten the LS-system of TV. Since the heights do not sound as "aggressive" as the satellite of the MS system (at least on my TV).

The system should have 50 Watt RMS, I can not believe. I usually connect a Denon Micro stereo with my TV, the 30 Watt RMS has (only 2 stereo speakers without sub). When Denon unfortunately rocking the apartment, when MS-Tech not. Feels like I would say that the system maybe 8 - 10 Watt RMS has - no more. On the PC I have a 2.1 LS-System from Cambridge SoundWorks (about 10 years old - Price then 40, - Euro) where the satellites and the subwoofer are much smaller. But this system is at least 3 times as "powerful" as the MS system.

I noticed is still this: If you, for example, listen to a music video on Youtube, or even just normal TV program sound, the system is to provide relatively loud. But if you have a USB flash drive looks a movie, the system is quiet. You have to turn up the volume knob up to maximum to ever notice a sound improvement.

Conclusion: With the MS - System can definitely improve the sound of his flat screen TV`s. But if you want to have more bass to make it just right "bum-bum" makes action movies, should invest more money. Given the very low price I forgive 4 points, otherwise (preisunhabhängig) 2 points.

Addendum: Due to the "hum" returned the system. There was then a replacement - same system - sent to me. Hum is gone now. Sound-wise, however, it remains exactly as advertised. It is def. better than the normal LS of the TV. Best always still to turn the not so "sharp" heights of TV`s. Together this gives then a clear improvement in sound for little money. Who has 50 Euros left, definitely find something better. Or even connect best normal stereo equipment to the TV - surely that is something quite different ....
