Pretty good, especially for the desktop foot print

Update: 2/19/09

I left this as it was despite my experience has led me to find much better speakers.  I would stil say they are worth a try if you have small space to work with like I do.

These speakers are pretty good. They have a single driver in the satellites and one front firing sub woofer. Despite the single driver in the smaller satellite speakers, I find that they produce a pretty good range of sound, slightly tipped toward the highs, but pretty good midrange also. You will hear a little bass distortion if you point the front firing speaker toward you.

Point it away from you are even better point it away from you and push its opening right up against one of your interior walls(drywall and 2 by 4 construction) and you will get great sound.

I find the overall sound pleasing with good although slightly sharp bass, decent midrange, and very crisp highs.

These speakers will work great for me as my glass computer desk upstairs is only about as large as need be to fit my 19" wide and just a little more. These small speakers fit just fine.

I am pleased with these as long as the quality is there and they continue to sound good without distortion.

Probably a good speaker system for adults who want them for listening to music, not gaming. Meaning people who have older taste in music like perhaps jazz, blue eyed(Basia), 80s, house, etc. Probably not good for rap listeners, but still good for Inner City "Big Fun" and Rhupaul which have good tight bass but not all lows and distortion.

Amy Winehouse sounds good on these als
