    I wasn't expecting much from these budget speakers, but at the very least you'd hope they would work? Power button sticks, and the volume knob requires excessive force to turn. On top of that, they didn't even work! I'm returning these to the store ASAP and will probably have better luck finding speakers at a thrift store.

    Worked great for a little while, then started having driver issues and doesn’t work any more. Just needed a cheap set to get by with so they did their job until having issues. I’d suggest getting something different

    Really bad. A waste of the money I spent. Once plugged in, the speakers give an audible constant buzzing that cannot be fixed. I wish I could return it, but I'm probably well passed the return policy.

    I was looking for very basic speakers (cheap and cheerful) to use with my laptop. Even at the low price, these speakers weren't worth it. Really dreadful sound, worse than what I get from the internal speakers on my laptop. I returned them, and Best Buy was kind enough to let me do so (for store credit, not refund) after the return period had expired.
