5 out of 5 stars Amazing Speakers, for those who can push connectors   November 1, 2008
Vivek (MI)
This is an amazing speaker set, which to me, has great sound quality and looks for a PC speaker system.

Minor Snag-

The tiny speaker connectors have a triangular socket/key shape just near the metal pin. So if not aligned well the connect doesnt go in completely. So it is required to push the connectors well and deep , with a bit of twist.

Secondly, the stereo input connector from PC does not need the full push (at least in my set.) This connector needs to be pulled out a bit. This fixes the no-sound in right speaker issue which few users have faced. (its actually no-sound or very low sound in right one.)
Looks like they missed the finer details of those connectors.

Since the right one is also a volume control speaker, I think they put the key on connectors, in case the user misses the color codes. but now the slotted keys alignment.

Otherwise great sounding and looking speakers, for that price. And those soft touch keys to control volume still impress anyone who sees them first time.
5/5!



5 out of 5 stars Very good sound   October 15, 2008
mark reinhoudt (in between wellington (nzl), san francisco (usa) and cape town (sa))
I got these speakers now for a number of years. Over this period I have replaced my computer a few times but my speakers have remained the same.

The speakers give a very good sound under all conditions. Normally small speakers tend to 'scream' a bit but in this case that has not been the case.

With pleasure I can listen to music and spoken word without getting annoyed of the sound.

I have not used these speakers with games as I am probably one of the very few that does not use his computer for gaming. Actually I do not do any gaming.



5 out of 5 stars Great Speakers   September 16, 2008
T. Chumbley (Woodstock, GA.)
I was in the market for computer speakers and found these on sale. I bought them based on price and name brand. Turns out I got a better deal than I thought. I paid $35 and they retail over $100, and they look cool. The sound quality is fantastic and I'm a bit of a nut when it comes to sound quality. Even at a higher price I would still highly recommend these.


1 out of 5 stars Good for a little while   July 26, 2008
A. Burke (Los Angeles, California)
They weren't too bad when they were new, but after a year they are horrible. They've taken all the joy out of listening to music.


4 out of 5 stars Great for cubicle, bad for home   July 2, 2008
S. Johnson (San Diego, CA)
It's absolutely perfect for a cubicle with a hard floor and partitions that absorb a lot of bass - this unit is WAY bass heavy. I was going to donate it to Goodwill after trying it in my apartment because it shakes the floor and the walls, but I set it up with the bass unit under my desk at work and it's ideal.
