I was looking for a decent set of maybe 2 speakers and a subwoofer for my price range but then I came across this 4.1 surround sound set. (...)There had to be something wrong with them but as soon as I hooked them up the sound was so crisp and clear! I highly recommend these speakers to anyone. Buy them while there still in stock!

I didnt think these speakers were going to be this powerful and sound this great,especially if you have a sound card that supports 4.1 surround sound.a must buy for those looking for a great deal for a great product.

I don't understand how there are such mixed reviews. I get the feeling that the people writing the positive reviews didn't try to play anything loud or very bassy. The bass speaker, first of all, not like the desciption, is not shielded, there's a big sticker on it when you get it that says so. The volume controls are dials on one of the satellites, inconvenient if you want to wall mount all the spakers, and the front right and front left speaker wires are quite short. Don't forget that they only give you mounting brackets for two of the satellites. There are other models with separate volume control, which I find much more stylish and convenient. These arguments are all nothing compared to its poor sound quality. At top volume, it's not all that loud, it's loud, but not enough. In addition, the bass becomes fuzzy at around 80% volume. In all honesty, if you keep the volume at a medium, it sounds fine, but I like the immersive feeling you get from loud volume. I'm pretty sure I am going to return these.

I bought this product (cost 40) for company use (that's why it's cost 40) base on coworker's recommendation from another office. The quality is disappointed after I installed & tested it. It's not shielded so the interference is quite a serious problem, but I won't get blame afterall since this is not my decision.
Don't be fool by the 4.1 speakers, compare to my another set of 2.1 speakers (cost 20) it's not impressing at all.
There are many good speakers out there, do your researching and will happy with what you got.

subwoofer should not be called that: it's tiny, and distorts if the slightest bass is put through it. Not good for music, not good for gaming. Steer clear.

ok ok im a sound buff and i bought these speakers about three years ago, these speakers are perfect for home use if you wanna fill up a room. As for that one guy who said the bass was fuzzy, thats not true i have my bass full blast and its so clear it makes you wanna cry. after three years the speakers have only minimally decreased in quality but is hardly noticable. The only problem i encountered was that as there are long wires for the back speakers, the front speakers cannot stray from the subwoofer too much. Other that that if you want a good sound at an awesome price go for it dude.

Fine for basic listening, but not ok for movies, etc, because if you turn them up loud enough to hear speech, when low bass sounds come along the subwoofer starts distorting.

I bought this item for [$$$] a year or two ago I have been pretty happy with it, but for songs with high bass (rap) then the music gets pretty distorted, and I have a Sound Blaster Live 5.1 X-Gamer sound card..... so it is not my sound card that is bad.

When I plugged these speakers in and put on a DVD. I was amazed in how much the sound quality improved. You get the surround sound quality you get in theatres. You just have to place the speakers in the right places in the room. Playing my MP3's is great on this. This is a great addition if you are looking for speakers for your computer.

I was suprised when I brought these speakers home, they sound crisp and clean. However, sometimes bass is exaggerated and there is no adjustment for it, but it is real easy to fix with Windows Media Player's mixer. Would recomend them to everyone, you cant find a cheaper 4.1 surround out there.
