    5 out of 5 stars Gorgeous Sound and Looks   September 2, 2008

    This is my second pair of these. The movers broke the first set. I bought a cheap set which sounded awful. I had forgotten how wonderful these sound on everything from Techno to Classical to acoustic guitar. The woofer has its own control, so you can really boom the bass if you want. Plus they're beautiful to look at! Amazon's price--including shipping--was $60 lower than my local Best Buy.


    5 out of 5 stars Looks and sounds great, all at a good price   September 1, 2008

    PC add-on speakers vary considerably. These Soundsticks sound really, REALLY good, for computer speakers. So good, that if you find yourself lacking a home stereo system, these will do an acceptable job in a pinch.

    They deliver a clear aural image with good frequency response, and a capable subwoofer that sounds realistic. Amazon's price is very respectable, too. The final decision-point is their appearance -- If you like their design, and I definitely do, then these speakers make a great all-round package.

    I had heard one of these in a colleague's office and was amazed...I like mine too!



    5 out of 5 stars It is an excellant speaker!   August 29, 2008

    It compares very favorable to old generation passive 3 cubic foot bass reflex enclosures. Amazing what they can do with electronics.


    5 out of 5 stars Best Speakers For Personal Listening - Not For Rap Enthusiasts   August 24, 2008
    Spirit of Jerry (Austin, TX)
    If you are looking for sexy, stylish personal computer or laptop speakers that sound crystal clear and provide a rich EQ, then I highly advise you purchase these speakers now: Harman Kardon Soundsticks II 3-Piece Plug and Play Multimedia Speaker System. I am a fan of almost every genre of music, ranging from Bill Evans (jazz) to Marty Robbins (country) to Yes (rock) to Marlow (dubstep), and I cannot praise the sound enough. These speakers make other computer speakers sound like an analog television set with bad reception.

    You will notice that these speakers are about a foot tall when standing, with four tiny little cone woofers housed per speaker. They are very unassuming little buggers! The stix certainly pack enough punch to fill a spacious room with masterful sound, though are not built as home stereo system - just excellent computer speakers. You may not replace your Cerwin-Vega floor-standers just yet...

    The biggest complaint that I have heard or read about these speakers is that they are lacking in the heavy low-end. If you are a true, hardcore metal or hip-hop fan that lives for the chest-thumping bass, then these speakers are not for you - you want these:Logitech Z 2300 - PC multimedia speaker system - 200 Watt (total). If you are like me, and you actually want to hear your music, wallow in its splendor, and melt in its perfectly clear and evenly-balanced bliss, the Sound Stix are for you. Truly rich mids, sparkling highs, and defined, tight bass. Nothing is compromised in Harman Kardon's Sound Stix.
