I bought these not knowing what to expect (people giving them mix reviews). Got these speakers and plugged them in and my first reaction was WOW. The sound that comes out of these is crisp, clear and pretty loud with a faint bass to it. I will so I am no audio expert but I can tell good vs bad sound. For the price this was exactly what I wanted plus more. If your thinking about getting these as your main computer speakers I would think again. These speakers are intended for casual use, like bringing music outdoors, maybe to the game table or an office setting. The speakers are very light which is nice but still kind of big to make them "portable" (not going to be throwing them in a laptop bag). I like how it has a on/off switch built into the volume dial and the fact it has a volume dial. With most low end speakers you rely on your device to control the volume, but having a dial that you can easily tell what level it's set to is a bonus.
The only negative or issue you may run into is these run off of USB power. I do not dock points for this because it's clearly listed in the item description so it's not a con. The reason I bring it up is by needing USB power it takes away from being able to be used with mobile devices (IPhone, Droids, some tablets, etc) unless you have a AC to USB adapter or your device has a USB port. Keep in mind you don't need a "computer USB port" just some type of USB port that provides power. I have mine hooked up to my media box that has a USB port intended for a hard drive and it works like a charm.
Overall I am very impressed with the sound these little guys pump out and I enjoy listening to music/tv shows through these. For under 20 bucks you can't go wrong. Thinking about buying a second set.
