When i first saw these speakers, i wondered whats so good about them. When i plugged them in and started to listen to music, i was totally blown away. This is a must for those looking for small but powerful speakers.
(5 out of 5)Amazing........These are the best Value-for-money-speakers
I got this set of Speakers with my new system, opting for the "Cheaper" compared to the "Cambridge system". But believe you me. Compared to a similar product by creative, this is worth its weight in gold.
Clear rich bass, with distinct treble and higher tones. Great for games, mp3's, or even a small gathering that wants to rock to some music. The output is good. The two cubes are 6+6=12 watts. The sub-woofer is a great 20 watts with a 6.5 inch long throw woofer. If you dont want to go for the more expensive and bigger 5-piece systems, this is the best 3-piece alternative.
On the downside though...there is no treble control, and the subwoofer bass control is on the back of the woofer. So as in my case, if it is tucked in the corner somewhere, then it can be rather cumbersome to turn it up and down. However, I've found that setting it at medium works, cause with my SB!live card, i control the bass and treble from the taskbar "Play control" properties by going into the advanced properties.
Use it with a good card (SB!live..my suggestion) and it will be your best friend....YOur music system will have to file for redundancy.

This set of speakers are the greatest for the price. They deliver high quality sound and the woofer hits very hard. For [price] you couldnt find a better set of speakers. I have knocked pictures off of the wall downstairs with the volume maxed out. I took this set and wired them into my TV and use them as surround sound. If you are thinking about buying them, go on its a good buy.
(4 out of 5)Great sound
These speakers sound excellent. They don't look like much but the sound speaks for itself. Enjoyed for a year until the speakers bunked out on me, otherwise it would have gotten ***** instead of ****.
(5 out of 5)A Lot of sound for a little money
I have had these speakers for about 4 years, I have went throught 3 motherboards, 3 hard drives, 2 processors, and two power supplies and only one set of speakers, Altec Lansing ACS45.2. These speakers are quilty made with a quilty sound. The subwoofer kicks, it has knock pitchers off the wall and the sound is very tight. These speakers may only be 2.1 but they out perform many high dollar speaker systems. If sound quilty is important to you and you don't have to have 5.1 or 4.1 speakers these speakers are what you have been looking for.
