Morning

I'm looking to upgrade my existing speaker setup. Currently have a Microlabs FC330 along with a Creative Blaster Audigy Fx 5.1.

I am looking at purchasing some Wharfdale 9.0's along with a little Topping amp or similar. Looked at the 9.1's but they are a little large for my desk.

Would I be able to use the sub from the Microlabs system alongside the Whardale speakers?

Thank you :)

Thanks very much for the detailed reply.

Would I be able to connect the sub directly to the 'Sub' jack on the back of the sound card and have the amp running from the standard green jack?
 
Thank for that, all very helpful. Gives me something to think about.

In an ideal world I would go for the 9.1's or 2020i's but they are just a bit too big for my desk.

Are the 9.0's still decent value for £40? Am I better off going with a pair of active speakers like the edifiers or similar?
 
They also seem really hard to get hold of now and prices have been steadily creeping up. (The Edifiers)

I'll pop in to Richer Sounds after work and pick up a pair of 9.0's.

Thanks for your help :)
 
Just picked up the 9.0's. Really impressed with the solid feel and build quality. Can't test them out yet as the amp won't arrive for a few days. Love the retro look as well :)

Unfortunately I have to take them back today. One of the rubber inserts where the grill slots in is all buckled and squashed in. It will drive me mad looking at it!
