Power supplies junk
Screaming feedback when plugged in – returned. Customer service lousy – email only. Bought M-Audio AV30 speaks – better in every respect. Avoid.

What a gem!
I’ve had my share of speakers, different sizes/levels, all the way up to a $2,000 pair of MB Quarts. These little guys absolutely rock for the price.

Big punch for such a small package.
Love these speakers. In my 900 sq ft apartment, the clarity is pure joy and I can’t push these too hard unless I want to piss off my neighbors. A delight in every way.

I was a little skeptical that these speakers could deliver as claimed. I’ve read a lot of glowing “professional” reviews, but considering that most reviewers live by getting…

I have purchased these speakers after reading a positive review in an electronics magazine to use them as replacement for my weak built-in TV speakers, to discover sadly that they…
