Customer Review: Good speaker system for the price...
I was a little skeptical when I made this purchase, due in part to some of the other reviews and the low price of the speaker system. I have to say that I'm very comfortable with the purchase. The units are stylish in design, have good sound quality, and are worth more to me than what I paid for them. My only criticism of the speakers would be the volume adjustments. One "feature" of the speakers themselves are push-button volume adjusters...you must tap the increase volume/decrease volume buttons to adjust the sound. Not a lot of finite adjustment available; adjustment through the computer sound control is better. The sub-woofer volume adjustment is bullet-shaped and relatively small; difficult for my larger fingers to make delicate adjustments with. Their slick metal coating looks great, but makes it difficult to get a grip on. Overall, these are great speakers for the non audiophile who simply wants to enhance the stock system that came with their computer and isn't over sensitive about sound quality. My hearing isn't fantastic, so I cannot speak definitively about the quality, but there's no hum, no static and very little distortion at higher volumes/high bass levels...
Customer Review: Met or exceeded all expectations
Great sound, deep bass (for the size), and jazzy looks. It works perfect in my main living area along with my iPod. I highly recommend it.
