I bought these speaking when they were new "think" 2004-05 and the are still working perfectly,

sounds great, nice base crisp clear sound.

i think the problems other people were having may be related to other things I.E P.C hardware

mine is hooked up thru a XFI Extreme Gamer sound card,

spot on, im actually looking for another set and havnt been able to find one yet

I bought these speakers a few years ago, when they were a new product...they worked fine, for a while, but when I began having a static crackling in my speakers I went to the web site for drivers. I was told that the product had reached "the end of its service life"! That's funny, I thought, they still reporduce noise?!? Shouldn't I be the one that determines when I consider a product I've purched obsolete?

I was hesitant to buy Creative speakers, after a friend had bad luck with his 4.1 speakers.

However, when I found these for a good price, I snagged them and have been completely satisfied. THe only thing I would add would be longer wires.

I got these for $50 dollars locally and these are the nicest speakers I have ever had. I bought a 2.1 system for more a year or two ago and was not as impresed. I am only giving it four stars as I did have to upgrade my soundcard. Not a big deal becuase I have a laptop and just got the Creative soundblaster live 24 bit USB soundcard. No loss there either.
