Fantastic, a great buy!

(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Jan 6, 2002
This is probably the best thing i have ever bought. The quality of sound is fantastic, if you own a Playstation 2 or DVD player this is a must have. I was thinking of buying a new hi fi, but connect this up to your existing one, and you'll be amazed, the subwoofer creates unbelievable bass, making music sound brilliant. Plus the unit looks cool too! There are a range of changeable front covers, and the unit can be stored either horizontally or vertically. I would recomend this to anyone.

Surround sound heaven!! 6 stars!

(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Oct 23, 2001
Oh yes!! I wasn't sure whether to buy this systems for this price but after reading some great reviews about it i decided i must! And i do not regret buying these one bit!! They are stunning. The room i have them in is relatively small but what an amazig sound they produce. The subwoofer is very deep and each of the satellite speakers (considering their size) dishes out loud and clear audio.

Hiighly recommended. Good for DVD, music and games!!! Buy them!!

A great buy

(5 out of 5) by Ben on Nov 8, 2001 (Netherlands)
Connected to a PS2 and the TV, this transforms your home entertainment options (TV, DVD, CDs, games). Small gripes are that the speaker wires are a little short (5m for rear speakers) and that it is difficult to work out which settings work best with which input devices, but these problems are easily sorted and the system looks cool and produces a great sound.

Take off time

(4 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Nov 19, 2001
Setting up is easy but nothing prepares you for the first glorious all engulfing burst of sound. I have a very expensive hi-fi but for sheer spine tingling involvement with the music the 3500`s can`t be beaten. How they pack all that weight into such a small product beats me. One cautionary note though. The amp is a bit complicated for the average listener which includes me. If you don`t press the right button things don`t happen. I am using it with a Sonic Fury 5.1 sound card. I`ve just invested in the new 24 bit Audigy sound card and they reckon you have to fit grab handles to stop flying away. Fabulous.

Brilliant - A Must for the Authentic Sound Experience

(5 out of 5) by joe@delos-santos.com on May 28, 2001 (London, United Kingdom)
I recently bought this product because it does everything a sound system should do and it did.Not just for my PC but also my Playstation 2 I own. I have always wondered if Creative Labs still live upto its reputation and it does. With DTS 5.1 sound quality and surround sound, it not only makes your music sound really really good but also gameplay etc. This item was originally recomended to me and I would like to do the same. Definately worth every penny. Buy it.
