    I am amazed at how well the sound is at both top and bottom for the price. At some point, I might add a subwoofer, but frankly, it doesn’t need it. The ability to pick out specific sounds in frequencies when gaming, or listening to music, made me realize just how much of an upgrade they were from my previous speaker system. I highly recommend them.

    Using these as desktop speakers, the sound is crisp with plenty of low in. Having the options of bluetooth, optical along with 2 RCA sets is nice. There is a sub-out port though not being used.

    For the price that you paid for this they are great! - Good for turn tables! Power maybe is not enough for big rooms but they are ok for small rooms!

    Great option for those not looking to dive into having a fully dedicated stereo system, with plenty of connectivity options. Sounds decent, would definitely benefit from adding a subwoofer.

    They look great the setup is easy and they come with a remote. The Bluetooth ones are worth it for me because I use my Phone a lot of the time to listen to music in my apartment. They fit really nice in all the different areas I have moved them to and they sound so good. Even the difference between being right in front of them and next to them, you can hear the directed audio coming at you and it sounds so good. I used them on my tv and they were so good. When I switched back to the soundbar after it sounded so dull and flat. I’m getting at least one more set of these for my apartment.

    Great sound for a great price. Not audiophile quality, but for everyday listening for music and gaming their great. Surprising amount of bass for such small speakers. Would buy again or recommend to a friend.

    They were easy to set up, sound good, and do everything I expected. They sound quite good for the price point. Only thing I’d like to see is grounding for a turntable built into the powered speaker

    Love these speakers, they reach a volume sweet point for me where they arent too loud or too soft and have a decent bass (though i would recommend a subwoofer if you are more into a more heavy bass sound ). Works perfect for my setup as a blue tooth and speaker for vinyl player

    Excellent! Great acoustics, Speakers enhance the sound of the Bose CD changer I connected to. I get a clean, crisp surround sound. They provide sufficient power for my living room. Ell worth the cost.

    Surprisingly crisp and clear sound. Great for the price. They were bigger than I expected and have decent sound. I have them hardwired to my PC via optical and bluetooth connected to my phone. Its really easy to switch between the two and my iphone picks them up right away. Hard hitting bass is missing and I am thinking about the subwoofer, overall good sound.

    Very good sound, has all the connections i need, i do recommend using a eq software to get more juice out of them and if you can get a subwoofer too and you'll have a very high quality system, specially for enjoying music.
