Very nice speakers
I purchased these a few years ago after doing some research. Chief among my concerns at the time were minimal desk space usage, loud undistorted sound output, and bass response…

great
I’ve had em for nearly ten years and they haven’t quit. Great and loud. Good for Hendrix, the Allman Brothers, etc.

Amazing Speakers
These speakers are amazing! There’s no comparisson to other brands, it has powerful bass and crystal clear mids and treble. The one thing I don’t understand is the price.

One year, twelve days
These speakers were great for one year and twelve days, and then they just died. No sound, just a slight squeak from the sub.

2 years of faithful service, then…. WHAM!
I bought these speakers a couple of years ago (a little over 2 I’d say) and they really worked great.

Amazing Speakers, for those who can push connectors
This is an amazing speaker set, which to me, has great sound quality and looks for a PC speaker system.

Very good sound
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.

Great Speakers
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.

Good for a little while
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.

Great for cubicle, bad for home
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.
