| Good for a little while |
They weren't too bad when they were new, but after a year they are horrible. They've taken all the joy out of listening to music. |

| Great for cubicle, bad for home |
It's absolutely perfect for a cubicle with a hard floor and partitions that absorb a lot of bass - this unit is WAY bass heavy. I was going to donate it to Goodwill after trying it in my apartment because it shakes the floor and the walls, but I set it up with the bass unit under my desk at work and it's ideal. |

| what a rip off! |
Had these speakers for less than 6 mos. when the speakers stopped working. I could hear a little coming out of the sub-woofer but nothing else. I called JBL and they said send them back. it has been a month and I have not seen a replacement yet. Harmon/ JBL's customer service sucks and when you call them they will repeat the mantra that it will be another 2 weeks. obviously Harmon knows they have problems with these and they are just passifying the customer when they call in.
I do not recommend buying these or any other Harmon product. if you need computer speakers, take a look at Altec Lansing. |

| Great Speakers! |
I bought these as a gift for a friend and once I heard them on her computer, I wanted to get them for mine as well. The price had shot back up after my gift purchase, so I waited. I tried Bose instead, they were really poor. Right when the Bose arrived the price temporarily dropped on these - I got them right away and returned the others. I use these with my iMac and the music sounds great - bass is great and I think they really provided stereo quality. Easy to set up, don't take up much space and they look good too.
I'd recommend these to anyone. |

| awesome |
I bought this nearly two years ago and it's still working like new. I wouldn't pay $150 for it though! I think I got mine for $70?
They are certainly loud enough for me and the sound quality is good. Easy to set up and very durable (they've been moved around from house to house a lot!). I use the speakers when I need louder music then my laptop can provide or when I want to listen to my mp3 player. You have to be careful when setting the speakers up because if they arent plugged in just right there will be no sound (scary the first time it happens) but be patient and take the time to unplug everything and try again!
The speakers look cool - the green lights underneath the speakers arent terribly bright and I would miss them if they were gone. I always get questions about them when people are over. Would recommend these! |
