Versatile input with Bluetooth, headphone jack, and RCA inputs. Has a sub woofer out RCA jack if needed. Sound is good and seems to improve after a few hours break in. However, on and off is a two-step process, done via a switch on the speaker and a button on the remote, which is not clearly explained in the minimal manual. If you lose the small remote, then you'll have difficulty working the speakers. Performs well as computer speakers for YouTube music, movies, etc. Not top of the line, but still pretty good.

Let me preface this review by saying when I bought them I got them for a really, really good deal - $65.
Also, these speakers do provide an excellent set of input/connection options - aux, RCA, bluetooth (and an output for sub, which I did not try). For the cost, they're really tough to beat. They're also not overly heavy, so the portability here is a nice feature.
Where they fell just a tad short for me:
1) Overall volume. I was planning on using these in my garage and more importantly, for backyard projector/movie set-up. I tried them in multiple places (in the garage, in my basement workshop, and in a couple different spots in my backyard) and they were just so-so on the volume. I am an avid audio fella, and have mid to high-end audio equipment throughout my home. I don't share this to brag, but to let you know I understand when and where one needs to have enough juice to pack a punch in his/her technology, if you follow. I also am completely aware all of our ears are different. What sounds good to me may not to you, what's loud enough for me may be over or underwhelming to you. When I used these in a few outdoor locations, and knowing my neighborhood, where my home exists, and what noise I am competing with, these weren't optimal for how I wanted to use them.
2) Bass. Right there with the volume, the bass was just so-so. On these speakers it is nice to have separate dials to adjust volume, bass, and treble. When I maxed out the bass (which I typically never max my bass on any device) these were just still middle of the road. Could I have allowed for a longer break-in period to help? Surely.
For the terrific price I paid, I could've just turned a blind eye and kept them. I didn't feel settling was a good move here and will keep my eyes and ears open for different solutions. If you're looking for an entry-cost set of speakers to use with a turntable or simple set-up, or in a low-traffic room, or in a room with a smaller footprint, these will be a very good and cost effective win for you. I would recommend, they just weren't a fit for me in the use I intended.

When you search for Bluetooth speakers almost all results are small, single speakers that may technically be stereo, but true stereo sound from them is essentially nonexistent. Not so with the Insignia Powered Bookshelf Speakers which are two separate speakers that can produce true stereo sound. Speaking of that sound, it is very good for their size. Bass limitations can be overcome by adding a powered subwoofer to them and hooking it up to the subwoofer out connection. It even has a remote control to change input source and volume from them. For the $80 price I paid, they are a true stereo bargain.

I bought one of those large “party boxes” and a similar priced bluetooth speaker and neither come close the the sound of these speakers! I use them in a 2 bay oil change garage and they have hood bass and sound everywhere in the building. When no cars they sometimes get cranked up and these speakers really jam.

I do music mixing at home for videos and one of my $1500 speakers stopped working right so I needed a quick fix. I can't say these are great professional mixing speakers, but they are great for reference. Music sounds good and clear.

This is an excellent speaker. The bass is deep and the treble is clear. The volume, treble and bass controls are easily accessible on the side panel. The bluetooth connectivity is easy with iPhones and android. Android gets the added bonus of having NFC to make pairing easy. A very efficient, energy saving design.

Insignia is one of those brands that you tend to not think of first, but when you get one of their products you can't help but be impressed. These speakers provide great sound reproduction. I have mine about 8 or so feet away from my AT120BT turntable and have never had an issue. Set up with the turntable was easy. The NFC tag at the top of the right speaker is also a great way to quickly connect to your phone.

I decided to upgrade my vinyl experience and got a new turntable and speakers. The sound is great.. they were easy to set up and pair with Bluetooth. After i purchased them, I found the price had been reduced for a sale. I went on the app and recieved a price adjustment with no problems. Well worth the money.

I was looking for something simple for an elderly person to operate and I wanted it to sounded decent. This pair of speakers were perfect. They were easy to setup and were plug-and-play ready. I like that I don't have to access the speakers constantly to make adjustments. They look great on the bookshelves where I placed them.

I bought these Insignia Bookshelf Speakers on sale and they are well worth the money. These bookshelf speakers are loud, have great sound, deep bass/treble and provide crisp detail sound quality. Playing music and watching videos/movies through Bluetooth with my laptop and Ipod sounds incredible! I highly recommend these bookshelf speakers! Five stars all the way!
Thank you Best Buy.

I use these for my desk top computer and so far they sound and work great. There is a break in period after which they sounded better. I have not tried the blue tooth feature as of yet so I can't comment on that. I also have not tried the sub woofer out feature. Get them on sale and you will have a good pair of powered speakers for a good price. I would not buy them at the full price though. Wait for a sale.

These things rock, especially when on sale for $70. I wish they had more hookups like usb or spidf, otherwise great purchase I actually bought the Klipsch powered speakers from best buy and ended up returning those since I liked these better. These sound fuller at lower volumes but worse at higher volumn and are like 1/3 the price. Definitely a great deal and make fantastic computer speakers!
