    They were easy to set up, sound good, and do everything I expected. They sound quite good for the price point. Only thing I’d like to see is grounding for a turntable built into the powered speaker

    Pared these speaker with an AudioTechnica turntable. the first pair I got wouldn't work, no power. Exchanged them for another set and these worked and sounded good. Pairing was easy once you figured it out, thank goodness for the internet. Would have probably given these a 5 star except for having to return the first set.

    Would prefer a higher SNR rating and a smaller enclosure.

    These are decent, but don’t expect these to be a studio quality sound. Not too much high end, could use some more low end. Bass and treble can only be controlled via the knobs on the side of the speaker. The remote has little utility. It doesn’t make sense to provide bass and treble controls, but then make a controller that can’t be affect these levels. Overall, these are decent. I wouldn’t buy them again, not for this price.

    Excellent tone and clarity from left speaker, but if right speaker is functioning, it's very faint, with slight vibration felt when grille is touched.

    Great PC speakers. Nice sound, but could use a bit more bass. I would recommend adding the sub.

    These speakers complement my turntable rather nicely. Not to big and sound is full for a bedroom. Solid construction. Marshal Tucker sounds pretty good!

    I like them, i like the sleek design and the remote. It fit every single one of my needs and i love them, bur they can be better. Belive it or not, i got the insignia bookshelf speakers and to my suprise, they are better, more aesthetically pleasing, and 10x better for utility. Unfortunately im gonna sell them and then buy some kef speakers. Thanks!

    Awesome pair of starter speakers for a budget

    Overall, great experience. The speakers sound great for a small bedroom, can fit nicely to a computer system. Love the multitude of ports and connections, being able to connect to my phone one second, follwoed by connecting them to my laptop the next. Only minor complaint is the bass drops off in certain scenairos, but a subwoofer will fix that.

    Good speakers, but bass is weak.

    I use these to listen to a Bluetooth turntable and also have them hardwired to my cable box for TV sound. Good quality, clear sound on both. I do wish the bass was better, but at this size it's okay.
