I think they are AudioEngine A2, i could be wrong though.

I think they are AudioEngine A2, i could be wrong though.

they are edifier, i think the model is z5500 ass kickers or somthing like that... hehe, they are edifier s730, 2.1, the sub is 180w rms and the fronts are 75w rms each. they really are soooo fkn clear and loud, one of the best things ive ever bought.

just ordered the fans and rads for my tj11 build, now i have to wait... plus still waiting on my fittings i ordered a week ago, ill post pics when i get the gear.

$AU600 for the tj11,

$AU615 for fittings/coolant/tubing/fan controller,

$AU420 for fans and rads.

I have a res and cpu block, only thing left is two 6990's and matching waterblocks.

nice build man....just a sudjestion....if you replace those noctuas between your rads with a rad shroud and used those noctuas as "pull fans" you may see a drop in temps 3-6 celcius.... fun hobby tho huh??? check out my current build "stark contrast" in the work logs...

thx for that, but ill only be using that case/setup for a few more weeks then going over to the tj11 with sr1 280/ sr1 560.

Done for now.. need more comp fittings and cable splitters and extensions, prob upgrade my psu (prob silverstone gold 1200) when i buy the 6990's, now after ive finished this build i can say now it was a bitch. lol anything i wanted to do i had to change and think very hard about it, even though its a massive case that bottom compartment was filled to the brim. not a fan of the fan controller either i think 1 channel is stuffed aswell, it doesnt slow the fan down, looking at the mCubed T-Balancer bigNG, anyway here is my nice clear bright ipnone pics, ill get my mates dslr and get some nice shots, there are no lights atm, no more molex left.

i found some plastic in the waterblock when i pulled it apart, looks like from a drill thread.

the 180mm fans in the tj11 make a quiet droning noise, its really annoying, going to put them on the controller and slow them down more, hope this will help.

enjoy, tips, comments much appreciated.

no gpu blocks cause im saving for 2x 6990's then waterblocks on them
