Strength:

Sounds sooo good!

Weakness:

None

You should get this system if you're looking for the best sounding speakers for the pc. I bought the MusicWorks center component and it acts as a shelf stereo system. I love it. I used MicroWorks with a Yamaha $10 soundcard and it didn't sound so good, but when I upgraded to a SoundBlaster live, man it was soo good. Since they are getting cheap nowadays, go out and get yourself one while they last.

Strength:

value, size

Weakness:

midrange

I was fortunate enough to get these for $150, but had my eye on them ever since they came out at $350. For $250, they are a steal. This is one nice small package suitable for PCs, gamers, or even a tiny apartment stereo. The sound is easy and sweet, has decent bass for the size. The midrange and upper treble aren't the best, but then this product meets its market at a better quality and price than I've heard in anything else.

I got this speakers as a replacement for my Microsoft Digital speakers. From the reviews I was expecting "better than Bose" sound, as a lot of reviewers claimed. I was a little disappointed, I personally don't think this speakers are better than bose, it doesn't reproduce high end sounds well. The sound was not that clear either, compared to my digital speakers, compared to analog speakers I will say it is JUST A LITTLE clearer than the rest.

So what's good about this speakers? This speakers reproduce richer, brighter and warmer sounds compared to an average $100 - $200 speakers. The bass is superb!!! As some reviewers say it is melodic and I agree with them.

I don't think this speakers beat bose cube speakers, but for the price of $130, a hundred bucks off original price, this deal is hard to beat. The best overall speakers I've had for my PC so far.
