 Either I got faulty speakers or they are crap... October 8, 2008
D. Adams (Lexington, NC)
I really wanted to love these speakers. I liked the design and people seemed to rate them highly. However, 10 minutes after they arrived I'm already looking into how to return them.
My first test was on my Fujitsu Lifebook A6110 laptop. The grin soon faded from my face when I began playing music through these speakers. They sound extraordinarily flat and muffled. Unless I boost the treble in the equalizer, they sound worse than my laptop speakers.
Figuring it may be this laptop, I grabbed a Dell Insprion 1420 and began playing the same song, getting the same results. I did one final test using my MP3 player (actually a camera, but playing through the cable I used on the computer) with once again, consistent results.
Perhaps there's something wrong with these because I seriously can't imagine people giving such horrific sounding speakers 4 and 5 star ratings. These were purchased to replaced my 10 year old speakers that came with some Dell and there's no way they sound even close to those. And yes, they too are only 2.0 as well.
 Not bad for the price October 6, 2008

I use these speakers at work so I don't usually play them too loud. They sound just fine while I listen to pandora.com all day, and the hard metal grills prevent desktop object from puncturing the speaker cones. I like that they have AUX and headphone jacks on the front between the volume and tone knobs.
The only problem I have with mine is that they make a loud popping sound when I turn them on, but it's nothing I can't live with.

The speakers have been pretty good so far - very nice sound quality for size. I only wish they were a little more aesthetically pleasing.

i bought these to hook up to my pc in my college dorm room, and for the price they are very good; very decent sounds for 30 bucks and free shipping; the bass does get distorted if you turn it up too high, but it has a pretty decent sound range and its definitely good for what i use on my desktop; music, watching movies, and games.
Amazing for the price! September 6, 2008

Of course there are better speakers out there, but for the price and it being 2.0 speakers they are very good. I have had them for a month. I use them everyday in my garage with a loud fan and I do not have to turn them up even half way to hear it clearly over the fan. They are great for the average user who wants portability, low price, good enough bass (don't expect it to blow out your ear drums though), and a decent loudness. I gave it five stars because I am only comparing it to other speakers of it's class (it also probably compares to speakers of higher classes too). The auxiliary cord is real nice and convenient, I switch between using my Ipod touch and a portable radio to hook up to the speakers, works great. No problems or malfunctions so far, will update.
