    wanted to finally upgrade our record player and couldn’t really decide on what speakers to use. i hear a lot about how these are good beginner speakers so i decided to buy them and literally have no bad experiences with it. the sound quality is amazing and super easy to set up!

    Amazing speakers get very loud, works with an audio interface with the right connections I also was able to connect my Bose headphones by buying a 2.5mm female to 3.5mm male adapter for the jack,

    EXACTLY WHAT YOU THINK

    Just believe me that these speakers sound what they look like. That’s all. Since they are powered, they pack a punch with a built-in little amp. That means you will hear a GOOD bass there. I connected a Belkin Airplay 2 receiver with the 3.5mm jack-to-RCA cable included and now it’s an intelligent speaker in my Apple HomeKit environment. My living room is small so these are more than enough! I totally recommend these to anyone. Besides, it’s only $99. Just return them if you don’t like them, which I doubt.

    Great sound. Reasonable price. I needed a new cord to hear clear sound between the two speakers, but it now works with no issues.

    Not a great pick if you can't play it loud

    Don't get this if you don't like playing sounds at a relatively high volume. At lower volume it sounds like regular cheap speakers. You have to play it at a fairly high volume to actually get a feel of the sound quality. So might not be suitable for apartments with thin walls

    Great sound for the price. During the day, these are the speakers for my home office to sue for focus music and zoom calls. In the off hours, they get used for playing all types of music. The only area they struggle for me, slightly, is with directionality. If they aren’t pointed towards you, the sound quality tapers off. I wouldn’t use these to fill a large room with good sound, but it’s just right for a medium sized home office

    Really a great speaker system for beginners/ novices especially. Excellent quality and good value for the price. They are slightly bulky, but not unmanageable. Very simple to set up, sound clarity meets and even exceeds expectations

    Blown away by the sound that comes out these things! Originally I was gonna pick up some audio engines which are 3x the price of these but with all the positive reviews I wanted to give these a shot. No regrets here.

    I bought these speakers because I was tired of using my bluetooth speaker, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much of a difference in sound quality these provided.

    BEST DESKTOP SPEAKERS EVER!! The bass and treble these speakers put out is unreal! It’s a little of of equalizing it sounds like super expensive speakers! These speakers are very affordable and best bang for your buck!

    I can hear footsteps way easier with this and I cannot even set the volume to above 20% because these speakers go so loud. 10/10

    Replaced a 2.1 setup with these. Great sound across the spectrum - clear highs/miss/bass. No muddy base that you typically hear on a dynamic 2.1 system in this price range.

    These speakers were an added bonus to my wife’s new phonograph player. They sound great and we’re simple to install. I like that the bass and treble are easy to adjust.
