Best value for the price. Nice sound, good looks and durable.
Update 12/21/10: Still working well. I had the chance to listen to some of the better ($200+) units and I can tell they sound a lot nicer, but this one comes very close! Remember, it is not going to sound as amazing as the expensive ones but it is worlds ahead of any standard TV speaker.

|Step up from tv speakers,
This system arrived as ordered. The system looks good, and performs way better than my TV speakers. While I do not get real surround sound (see below), having speakers all around the room definitely makes you feel in the movie, game, show, etc. I don’t get real surround sound because I do not have an amp/receiver or DVD player with separate outputs for each speaker. I just plugged the system into my TV with the dual cables. I don’t have the resources to buy a nice receiver with an HDMI input/output (My TV is 1080i HD capable).
I do get great stereo sound quality, which with two left/right speakers gives a surround sound quality to whatever I am watching (less so on TV shows).
Just on the internal amp I can get these speakers loud without distortion. The bass is weaker than I would like, but I am in an apartment complex and have neighbors below! Although, I was in my dining room working on paperwork when I started listening to my fiance playing a PS3 game (Ratchet and Clank) and the bass quality sounded great. The bass also sounds great when watching action movies with gun fire (ex. Live Free or Die Hard). But the bass will not shake your windows, if that’s what you are looking for.
The cords for the rear speakers are long enough to go under my rug/coffee table, under my couch, and up on the window ledges behind me. The speakers are also able to mount on the wall. What I was upset about was the length of the front Left/Right speaker wires. With the bass next to my PS3 on the ground, the speakers barely reach the top sides of the entertainment center (which isn’t very big, I only have a 32 inch HDTV). I might be able to reposition them to get better stereo sound at a later date.
Having no remote is also a bummer, but for the price… whatever.
Overall the speaker system is a great upgrade for those looking for “false” surround sound in a smaller room. The speaker sound is crisp and clear. If you are looking for true surround sound (using HDMI cables, for example) this home theater speaker set may not be for your. But if you aren’t picky about your surround sound, are light on cash, and want something better than your TV speakers, this just may be for you!
Thanks for listening! Will let you know if anything happens with the system that warrants immediate attention!

|They are what they are…,
Nothing less than a nice solid set of cheap “powered” speakers. I bought these because I’ve been wanting something a bit more powerful than my TV’s speakers. For the price the product is five star. My TV is in a smaller room and these sound great when set up properly. You will need some type of output (receiver, DVD player, etc) that puts out a 5.1 signal to achieve surround sound, but you can also just run a standard 2 channel stereo signal through it as well and still get a nice sound. I bought these specifically for use with my Xbox 360 (which puts out Dolby 5.1 via optical cable). I have the optical out on the console running into my Tritton AX360 5.1 system and the surround out on the Tritton running into the speakers. Great purchase, great sound!!
