Whats that soundcard?
It's not a soundcard it's just a monitor matrix. The behringer one. It's absolute crap but handy. So affects the sound in a bad way . I'm hoping to get rid of it when I got new monitor speakers.

Thank you. I've got a wishlist hehe, I don't really feel the need for more gear right now. Mostly replacements. I want a better soundcard (audiophile 2496 right now), better monitors (got behringer b2031 now) and a better dj mixer (also cheap ass behringer). I expect a big check coming in, but I don't know when it's coming yet .. I'm aiming to buy a motu828 and some dynaudio monitors... Still debating between Air15 or the lot cheaper bm15a... I don't know... Maybe something else :P

Thanks It's foam. Just took it out of some box of something my mom ordered haha. So it's not paper :P. It was pink once, but the sunlight made it lose most of it's color. It's there to kind of disconnect my speakers from the desk and to prevent my desk from resonating. The desk still resonates. But way less than before.
I tried to order speaker stands some months ago, but the ones I ordered wheren't available anymore so I never got them and never took the time to get them either. On the other hand I just spent 450E on those 2 22" screens... Still quite a bit of money, but compared to todays prices it's been a very good deal .
If less is more think about how much more more would be.

Thx. Man, it sounds WAY better. Before the room sounded somewhat hollow... a lot of wall to reflect and the angled wall itself can be a worst enemy. So, this is much much better. I still want to get corners behind me taken care of and add treatment to the very top of the ceiling and side walls. But this is night and day... I actually underestimated how much of a difference this would be.

Storyteller, I would make the Monitors the last priority - they're probably the best thing that Behringer has made.
The mixer should go first I reckon as it's a dog......
The soundcard (same as mine) is actually not bad at all but you do hear the difference when you use something like a Motu.
Sweet set up though - Have you though of China Cones for the speakers?

Yea I got the old ones, the first batch. They're better sounding (less bass-heavy) than those currently in the shops . However I'm really looking forward to something high(er)-end. I really notice the speakers are holding me back at this moment. They'e just not working for me anymore... Once I have new monitors these will be connected to my dj set :P

Probably going for a passive volume control or none at all again when I get that MOTU. I'll probably be buying it somewhere next month if I'm lucky . The speakers will def have to wait as a pair is going to set me back at least 2400Euro (max 4000E). Pretty steep price hehe, but probably worth every penny . I want it to be a long-term investment which will make me happy for at least 5-10 years.

yeas . I had the creative audigy (1) platinum before I got the audiophile. In retrospect the audigy wasn't worth it's price (250Euro), it kept causing blue screens, crashes etc.. The audiophile offers way better sound quality for way less. I love the audiophile card, my computer has never been more stable since I got it .
Really looking forward to the motu though, 4 stereo ins/outs and superb quality... can't wait
