great speaker for the money
These speakers have great sound for the money. If I could change one thing it would be a treble control.

Great Value – Great Sound – Great Speakers
I bought these after reading several reviews. They are a real value for the money. I have played them for several friends and they cannot believe the sound for the price.

Hercules, good and cheap
We were looking for a 2.1 speaker system that is good and cheap, seldom 2 words you hear together. The Hercules 2.1 lounge speaker kit fits the bill.

Great value!
I read an expert review of these speakers and decided to order them, even though I had doubts about their quality for $44. I was pleasantly surprised.
