These particular speakers have been around for years and there is a reason for that - they are superb! I worked as the Personal Computers/Home Office supervisor some time ago at Best Buy. I had plenty of time to compare and test out the speakers we sold. These speakers were by far the best and the only thing that ever came close were the higher-end Bose companion speakers priced around $350.
For some reason though, Best Buy rarely has them in stock. It was the same way for all the stores within my territory.
What's great about it: Nice, crisp sound & value
What's not so great: They are never in stock these days, no power button
