Title: Good for the price, 1 gotcha
Product review: These are fine speakers considering the low price. The bass is a little boomy due to the subwoofer handling frequencies up into the low midrange. Mid to high detail is fair to good. You won't mistake these for audiophile gear, but they are pleasant to listen to and fine for the price.One gotcha: the control unit that sits on your desk (power switch, volume control, headphone jack, iPod jack) is permanently wired to the subwoofer. If you are using these at a office desk or anywhere else where you want to take advantage of cable management holes and channels, you may not be able to do so with these speakers. The control unit is too big to fit through even the largest of cable management holes. The top of my desk "floats" above the sides and modesty panels of my desk, and the control unit won't even fit through that large space. How much could it cost to wire the control unit using a jack?
