My (super) permanent desk:

What power rating are they (watts) ?

They look mean mo'fo's

I'm not sure about RMS, but they are 150W max power. I drive them with this amp I found at a thrift store for $10, a sonamp 260x3. The amp makes 60W RMS, and it seems to drive them just fine. Apparently the speakers are quite efficient though, because they don't seem to use as much power as most, yet they're massive and can be really loud. I got them for $50 from some guy who was moving.

Real stereo speakers tend to get loud at a little power, I have some 100w rated Denon USC-20F speakers (not so huge but sound great) that I drive with a 60 WPC receiver (Technics SA-GX130) and it has volume numbers 0-20, getting upto 2.5 is insane loudness, I don't think I've ever taken it past 3.5 (or close to like 15 watts) as that is beyond the level your neighbors are happy with.

I've also seen others like some cheap Sony's rated for 100w that take even less power to get just as loud.

Erm... ya sure ya need those big speakers?

This. Is. Epic.

Eww. Doesn't look very pleasing to me. That room needs a cleanup, and fast.

congratulations! you win.

I think my eyes are bleeding...

Congratulations!! You've won a vacuum cleaner! I hope you use it

Yay!

Am I deaf, or is there no Nirvana playing?

So when are you going to post a pic?

EDIT: I'll try and take/upload a pic of mine tonight and post it here
Here, http://i1018.photobucket.com/albums/af3 ... 2CE5C5.jpg. It's the desk on the left.

Here's my desk at home, taken just today. It's taken a while since I've moved rooms to get it the way I wanted it but I think it's good for now!

CACTI! Cacti LOVE weather!

My desk looks like this. But a whole lot messier.


More Pics on my Google+

I just got this, it's huge compared to my old desktop:

My Windows 7 laptop: (no it's not really that small, had to use picresize to get it to fit)




My old 2007 macbook pro:




My new macbook pro:

The Compaq Presario case actually houses my main PC:

• AMD Phenom II X4 965 (overclocked to 4.0 GHz)
• Galaxy NVIDIA GTX 460
• 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3 RAM
• ASRock 880GM-LE FX motherboard
• Antec VP450 PSU

As for your main PC, well, let's just say that often, PCs have continued to use the same ATX formfactor for more than a decade now, so I'm not all that surprised, really.
