Picked up a set of these for something crazy like £35 if I recall correctly - a bargain for a 5.1 system. Don't expect cinema-style bass at this price mind you. The subwoofer can cope with a fair amount of bass before fluffing - enough to make your floorboards vibrate. The front right satellite has a headphone jack which is really handy since I don't have a headphone port on the front of my PC. With the volume control they can effectively be used as an amp if you're sound card or on-board sound doesn't go high enough with an EQ preamp enabled. The bass control is oddly on the back of the subwoofer which means you have to get up to add a ...  Read the complete review

These speakers are by far the best I've ever had, the sound quality is amazing for their price range and it's a great way to switch from the traditional PC speaker setup of Stereo to 5.1 Surround Sound. This speaker systems includes five speakers and one subwoofer: 2 front speakers, 2 rear speakers, 1 centre speaker and the 1 subwoofer. And i can say without too much of a problem that they will revolutionize the way you watch films and listen to music through your PC. The volume can go up far louder than anybody would find it necessary for watching a film, and if you love playing your music extremely loud like I occasionally do, they will not ...  Read the complete review

These speakers were purchased to watch films in surround at uni. I think I paid £30-40 for them which is a bargain. The set is a 5.1 speaker system no decoding of dolby or dts is carried out on this system. For this you will need a player or sound card with the analogue outs which is 3 stereo mini jacks, each carrying 2 channels of the 6 needed for 5.1. In this set you get four satellite speakers a centre and a sub. The front left and right have a mid sized driver and a tweeter for high frequencies. The rear left and right have just the mid driver. The centre is a bit bigger and features a better stand than the other speakers. The set is quite plasticy and ...  Read the complete review

These are great, they are the best sounding speakers i have had, i use them with a creative SB X-FI sound card on my pc and they are so loud even with the voloume control hardly turned up, the bass vibrates through the floor, you can adjust this on the back of the subwoofer, and also tweak settings in your sound card, i didn't really have to do much tweaking apart from changing the setting from 2.1 to 5.1 , and had to turn the bass down a little, before the neighbours complained. The subwoofer is quite big and sits on the floor and i have my speakers scattered around the pc, they are easy to set up, they just all plug into the back of the subwoofer, 2 of the speakers ...  Read the complete review
