I bought these speakers because I was tired of the pathetic ones that came with my PC. I got them home, uncrated them, and, just to give them a test, plugged them into an old CD Walkman. A month later, they're still hooked up to the Walkman and I'm contemplating another pair for the PC!

I was really suprised by the power this system pushes. The documentation is a bit sparse, but I'm led to believe that the whole system produces less than 40 watts. However, the sound is massive, largely in part to the 8" subwoofer which, at times, threatens to overpower the satellites. Not just loud, but clean sound, breaking up very little at top volume.

The only complaint I have is that the satellites are a bit bright and a bit weak in the midrange. Mostly I listen to reggae, so antually this sound works well, but I haven't found listening to jazz or classical as fulfilling. Still, you can't beat them and with a cheap Walkman CD player, I now have decent sounds in the bedroom.

This Labtec set amazed me. For (price), I did not expect the kind of quality I got. I compared this set to my old speaker system, a... Creative Labs FPS1000. Well I can safely say, although the price of this labtec is a little less than double the creative, its about 8 times better.

The subwoofer is built well, its heavy, in a strong wooden case to eliminate distortion. The base is extremely powerful. The only problem it suffers is that at some volumes, it tends to overpower the satellites. But this can be fixed by adjusting the level of the base.

The Satellites are very lightweight, sometimes, i wonder if they are too lightweight. But anyway, they sound great, very clear. There is a power button, volume control and headphone jack on the satellite, very convenient.

There is only one slight problem with this system, it comes with a flimsy manual. But, that isn't too much of a problem because it is very easy to set up. Thats why I give it 5/5 Stars.

Great sub, poor shielding network, still one of the best mini computer stereo setups.

these are the best inexpensive 3 piece ive ever heard. ive had them for a few years and ran bass tests real loud and I HAVE NOT BLOWN THESE! they are real strong for only 30Watts.

Don't overlook these because of the price like i almost did. I was able to hear and compare them to many other sets in a display, even some 5 piece systems, and trust me, these rock! Great for music, plus, wait until you play a shoot-em-up game! You will feel every explosion! GREAT BUY!

This small and affordable system, even though it is only a 2.1 configuration, has the best sound, performance, blending of sub to satellites, and range that is actually useable to the audio experience that I have roadtested to date. What surprises me is that it is likely on the endangerred species list because of fad and fashion consciousness driving the market shares. If you dont take the time to give this system a listen at your local retailer, where possible, stacked-up against even some $200 systems available, you are not only missing out but also missing the point of informed consumerism. Word to the wise.

I purchased a set of ATP-3 Lansing speakers & they were good but without a preamp in my computer I could not use my headsets in them for they had no headset jacks.So I took them back & I purchased the Labtec LCS-2424 pulse speaker set & I was prepared for the quality to be not quite as good as the Lansing speakers but "BOY WAS I ALL WRONG"!!!! This set sounds "BETTER" to me than the ATP-3's & I spent a whole lot less for these. When you 1st hook them up you'll think the mid's are not quite right & the lows are a little overbaring. BUT? You can adjust the Equalizer to make them sound as good as a $200.00 set and they will be as clear as a bell & the pounding bass notes will not be fuzzy at all. This set blows me away on the quality so I went & got a 2nd set for my wife.She loves them also. ( Highs are crips & clear & the lows are really beefy with no distortion.) "BUY THESE & YOU'LL ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM" = This is the 1st time I have EVER written a review on anything but my feelings were SO STRONG about the quality of these that I felt like I HAD to send in a review.Also the headset jack being right in the front of the speaker makes it "VERY CONVENIENT" to use."THE $50.00 PRICE IS UNBELIEVABLE" = YOU'LL LOVE THE PRICE & THE SOUND OF THESE SPEAKER SO DON'T HESITATE TO BUY THEM !!!!

How would you like to wisely spend about 50 dollars on a pc speaker system? Let me steer you in the right direction and point to these Labtec Pulse speakers. The bass is rich and the highs are very good. What makes it even better is that you only spend about ... dollars which is the retail price. Buy it online for less and you got a steal! With that in mind you can't go wrong with buying these speakers.

Speakers are good, quality of sound is good from low through high volume. Crystal clear sounds from low through high frequencies. Good choice for classical as well as rock music. Pandit Ravi Sankar's "Sitar" or Ustad Jakir Hussain's "Tabla" sounds so well, waao.....thanks Labtec
