Pretty good speakers for the price.
I bought these along with the Miccus Home RTX Bluetooth range extender so I could listen to music from my PC in a room over 30ft away. Paired with the Bluetooth extender, they work fine. The music sounds pretty good, though it can be a little muddied from time to time. But, for your average, non-audiophile person, they should sound great. The sound is certainly better than you would get from any little boombox or cheap stereo micro-unit. The bass booms very nicely, though it needs to be balanced or it will drown out the treble. The Bluetooth works great but, if you leave them on, (as I do, because the power switch is on the sub-woofer, which is on the floor under a table), AND leave the Bluetooth extender on, (as in my case), then the speakers will "pop" lightly every 30 seconds. I think this is the Bluetooth syncing. If you turn the extender off, the popping stops. So I just leave the speakers on but turn off the extender, and I think you can do the same with your system - just turn off the transmitting source. Alternatively, you can rig a remote switch for the speakers, which I had considered but didn't bother with since the other solution worked.The good: Good speakers in a small package. The bass does a good thumping job, especially when placed on a hardwood floor. The tweeters do a decent enough job at moderate volume and you can separate them enough to get true stereo. Unit has AUX input for hooking up a source other than wireless, which is actually nice. Plays an audio tone to let you know that it is paired every time so you know it is ready to play.The bad: The bass can be turned so loud it distorts the music and drowns out the tweeters. It takes a bit a fiddling to get everything balanced decently. And that wouldn't be a big deal, except all the controls are on the bass unit, which is on the FLOOR. So every time you need to adjust the bass, treble, or VOLUME, you need to crawl down there and do that, then get back up and step away to see if it worked, because, of course, you are too close to it when you are ADJUSTING it. What this speaker set really needs, is a remote.The wishlist: A remote. The remote needs the following buttons: On/Off, Volume, Treble, Bass, AUX in On/Off, Sync. Speaker stands for the satellite speakers. (Buy these separately.) The little satellites are good enough, but they have a sharp cutoff if you set them on a table or entertainment center. To get good coverage, get speaker stands.If you are setting up a remote speaker system and want good bass, then get these. If you don't care about the bass so much, there are more compact options. These worked for me and I do recommend them if you like music with a thump. :)

A whole lotta sound!
I've been very pleased with this purchase over the last two years. I can sync it via bluetooth to my PC or phone, but I mainly use it with my turntable via the "source" option on the back of the sub. Very simple design and very easy to use. It has bass and treble dials on the back, along with two buttons which allow you to choose between bluetooth or source. In my case, the turntable is plugged into the back of the sub via a red/white AV jack.The system is very loud and easily fills most rooms with a lot of sound. The sub has a decent "boom" to it. I highly recommend this affordable system for anyone that needs audio for their LP turntable, or as a simple but effective way of streaming audio from some other E-device. Plus it looks pretty sleek as well. There are slots in the back of the small speakers so you can wall-mount them on a screw head, which is what I did. My one minor gripe is the cords are short, and are NOT interchangeable. The speaker cords are about 4-5 feet long only, and the power cord is less than 7 feet. All in all, a clean sounding, clean looking system.

Excellent quality but with a fatal design flaw. READ THIS IF YOU PLAN TO USE THE WIRED RCA JACKS for your PC or Stereo!
The sound is great and the bluetooth function was the big selling point. The major flay is that I use this with my PC as well, but when you turn on the speakers, the default is bluetooth and the button to switch between modes is tiny, on the back of the sub-woofer that requires me to crawl under my desk twice daily to switch it from Bluetooth to PC. The volume button is huge and illuminated on the front and I can adjust it with my foot, so why is the little tiny button to switch to PC inputs on the back? I had to order extension RCA cables to even fit these on my 6' wide desk. Ridiculously short wires to the speakers. Which means options are limited where you can put the sub-woofer. I would locate it elsewhere than under my desk, but that isn't an option for me.Why no remote? Why no button on the speakers or a big button on the subwoofer on the front?The audio quality is excellent and the bluetooth feature is great and the sound quality over bluetooth is fantastic. I am a music nerd and these speakers are on if I'm home. But I hope the developers read this and take it to heart that people will use the wired audio jacks as well as bluetooth and they need to have a button to switch modes that doesn't require me to hurt my back and bang my head on my desk each day. Ugh! Otherwise, I think these are the best PC speakers I have ever had. Such an obvious flaw and don't see why the engineers didn't see this.
