They are cheap. Possibly one of the better 2.1 sets you can find for less than $50 ; The sub does what it ought to do, I think it's by far the best part of the set

The LED on the main speaker is quite bright ; You have to get to the sub to turn them off ; It's the whole "sub plugs into comp and wall, speaker A which has the controls plugs into sub, and speaker B plugs into speaker A. I find this setup annoying ;...

Works great. The size is very easy to arrange in a cramped work area

It is just the right amount of power for what I need in this case, but anyone wanting some loud boom to fill a house might want more

Good sound, even at low levels. Nice Bass good for gaming

Not too much. Maybe that the Sub speaker is vulnerable. Instead of being slightly recessed it protrudes from the Bass Cab

The sound was decent enough. The bass was actually pretty good for a $50 set

The speakers don't turn off from the actual speaker knob, you have to flip the switch on the sub ; The speakers are poorly designed; they're front heavy and have a triangular base which translates into any jostle making them fall flat on their face ;...

cheap, works great for what i needed it for... i dunno what people complain about the bass, its a 2.1 computer setup, its more than sufficient bass

none yet, wish there was a remote, but thats not really a con

They sounded great - awesome resonating bass, crisp treble, all around delicious ; Also, the price tag is pretty darn reasonable

The cords are too short, first of all. I can't put the subwoofer under my desk because of that, and I can't put the speakers in front of my computer unless my monitor stands on the subwoofer. They have to go to the sides ; And, it's been 5 months, and...
