What's great about it: Price
What's not so great: everything else!
Bought these to replace a 5 year old set of crfeative 5.1 speakers where the left rear channel had stopped working. On set up it rapidly became apparent that these were WAY inferior to the ones I was replacing!
Bass was coming through the center channel louder than the sub woofer and NO change on sound card setting would alter this.
Push the sound level even slightly above 25% (on an on board via 5.1 sound chip, nothing fancy!) and the distortion is horrible (again, not so on the creative system it was replacing!
After messing around with settings and getting a halfway decent sound for music, when I played my Falcon 3.1 flight sim, the sounds were all messed up; couldn't even hear air traffic control or my airmen! At this point called customer servie, boxed it up and am returning for a refund!!
Advice ? DO NOT TOUCH!!!!!!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Deep and clear sound.
What's not so great: The satellites can't be mounted on walls.
I hooked this set of speakers with my laptop (XPS 1330) with NO problem at all, my soundcard supports 5.1 so it was as easy as plug and play.
Regarding the satellite speakers, They have a fair length and should allow you to set the speakers far enough to create a surround sound environment.
The Sub-woofer is deep, smooth, and clear.
Lets go back and consider that we are not talking about a $300 Home-Theater.
This is just a 5.1 Speaker System. I'm guessing this system carries around 50RW
It has an outstanding performance for a living room, a single bedroom apartment or your own personal room.
If you live in an appartment complex, I promise you can get neighbor complaints preaty quick.
I would recommend this to a friend!
