I got these speakers from curry's the other day and I found them brilliant. When I opened them I found them well packaged and easy to set up, although at first there was a couple of things that I couldn't work out what they were for ! I immediately plugged them into my iPod and the sound quality was brilliant. The sub woofer is really good and can be controlled so it has lots of bass, or not very much bass depending what you prefer. The main downfall for these speakers though is the ipod dock. It comes with several holders for ipods, none of which worked with the ipod nano 4g or 5g ! However, the speakers do come with a long cable for plugging them into any standard headphone jack meaning I can use it with other makes of ipod dock, this cable also means you can use the speakers for your computer at the same time as having your ipod plugged in if the dock works with your ipod .
