not bad
This is an average speaker system at an average price. We did shop the Bose speakers for around $100. and these are comparable if not an edge better.

mediocre for music
I had to replace my old Altec Lansing acs45 because the cable/plug broke and [I thought] wasn’t worth repairing. The acs45 was such a great 2.

Good, not great, sound.
I don’t know if you get what you pay for with PC speakers, but these seem to bear that out. In my opinion, the sound is not nearly as good as my Logitech Z-4s, but those are more…

Died Mysteriously
Sounded good for a couple of weeks, but then just died. My old cheapo logitech speakers lasted years and made a move with me.
