Good Points

The best 2.1 speaker set around. They look stunning. They give the best audio. crisp and clear with no background hiss at all. Good volume range the bass can be subtle or in your face, you decide. Easy to install. Easy to use, use with any sound system.


Bad Points

Blue glow of sub not suitable for bedroom but you can turn off at the mains if this bothers you that much. Instructions don't tell you where the controls are but you'll be pleased that they aren't obvious as it would compromise the look of the product.


General Comments

I have always thought 2.1 speakers were made for people who want to have bass that reduces house to rubble and causes bowel movements by causing your body to resonate, the sort of bass that makes "hardcore trance anthoms 1500" mildly interesting, but when manufacturers make speakers that can play the subtleties of massive attack, radiohead, coldplay and classical music with such accuracy balance with just the right amount of bass, these manufacturers, nay, artists, have produced a set of speakers that can do anything, for you "music fans" who like to blow there brains out with god-awful "trance" go ahead, buy them, but you'll never appreciate the shear power of these speakers. For years i have used some philips 2.1 system that was alright but when you cranked it up the bass would immediately give you hassle with distortion and a god-awful background hiss. These give no background hiss, not even when unplugged from a sound source there is no crackle or hum or hiss. They just look fantastic and go with the furniture in any modern household.
I cannot emphasise enough how fantastically perfect the sound is out of these things, i may not have had a B&O history but these are simply out of this world.
