I bought the Harman Multimedia Soundsticks II computer speakers yesterday. I'm on holiday in Florida, and I saw them in the Costco supermarket for only $100.

I particularly wanted speakers with a sub woofer, as I like trance and dub, bassy music. I set them up on a carpeted floor and plugged in my M.D. player. They sounded good at first, but I noticed a vibrating sound from the sub woofer. I had them on full volume. There is no indication of what volume setting you are on; it just has plus and minus buttons on one of the satellites. You have to keep the plus button pressed in for a while if you want to be certain it is on maximum volume, and they are not that loud. The only way to stop the vibration was to turn the bass right down on the sub woofer. I thought they must be faulty, so I took them back to Costco and swapped them for another pair. I set them up the same as the previous ones and played a variety of music, but I had the same vibration from the sub woofer. Not good for me and my bassy music. Oh well, I will be taking them back tomorrow to get a refund. I am less than impressed. They look great though, but I prefer to listen to speakers than look at them.
