5.0 out of 5 stars It's noise. It's noise and it thumps!

It's not massive, but it's not small either., but it's enough to make you go "Whoah!"...The best way I can describe its size would be, if you took two boxes of half its size and put them together, you'd have the size of the box that turned up.Anyway, laying it down neatly and slicing the top open is always amazing when the box is of a reasonable size (see above), pulling the box wings aside and gently removing stuff was possibly one of the most therapeutic things I've ever done.Issues abound, of course, when connecting to the PC itself (3.5mm jacks)...You're going to have a different experience depending on what hardware drivers you've got running; and likely extra issues regardless (because despite Windows' trying to help, they continually make things worse and never clean up after themselves).When I first tried to plug everything in it went well until I connected the surround speakers, they were picked up as Rear, which is only available on 7.1 systems...Getting Windows to work properly with 5.1 was several hours of annoyance, but believe me when I say that it's completely worth it!I had a day where I just tested the sound via music player and it's LOUD, CLEAR, and WORTH EVERY PENNY.

Great sounding speaker s and the argb lights are a nice touch

4.0 out of 5 stars You don’t have to use all of the speakers.

The media could not be loaded. For the value of £90, the sub has a mega pound, you don’t have to use all speakers if not they are optional!, speakers have great quality not a single scratching nose from them at all, volume controls are great you can chose how much bass you want and how much surround sound or how loud you want the whole thing to be, looks very modern but the front net case thing could use some extra support or some glue, value for money is great!! You can also control the speakers on the side of the sub too, have to also mention no Bluetooth so if your looking for Bluetooth then you’ll have to find another speaker, size is great too, you can fit the sub into a small box that’s how small it is too. 4 stars from me amazing!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good sound, good reproduction and lots of volume.

These finally arrived after purchasing them through a lightning sale. I confess that I was extremely surprised at the size of the box when it arrived. This is a large set of speakers and the primary speaker in the centre is about as big as you might imagine from the product photograph. What attracted to me to this set was the claim on of 180 watts. I like to listen to music, various types of music, and computer speakers in general just don't cut it. I've had a set of trust speakers before and while they were excellent for gaming and movies, they lacked something when playing music. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it just didn't sound right. Not full enough perhaps. Plus of course, when I'm in the mood I like to listen to loud music, and this is where computer speakers fail the most, they buzz, vibrate, hum and generally distort at high volumes. So, I admit to a certain amount of skepticism when purchasing these.I cannot verify if these are 180 watts, as I have no real way to measure it, but these go to quite a volume range and manage to maintain integrity quite well. Less vibration or hum and rumble than any computer speakers I've tried before. Not perfect, but then these aren't high end music speakers, so I can forgive them for that. Really great running the x-box through these, the sound is almost perfect, and a good surround system for horror survival games on a dark night. Running my usual music choices through this was pleasurable, they reproduce well and maintain sound without electronic intrusion. So far so good.If you are looking to buy these, it is worth noting that they are excellent gaming speakers, I'm very impressed with them for that. If you are a music aficionado, you may want to invest in some real speakers for your hifi, this is not going to hit that level of reproduction. For general use, entertainment, loud noise, these are absolutely perfect, and they can make a LOT of noise.Overall I'm pleased with them, they are definitely the best computer speakers I've had and they do everything I want from a decent set of computer speakers. They even reproduce well watching movies - horror and sci-fi night will be fun again...In summary. Bigger than I expected, better than I expected and loud. I may already have mentioned that, but it's worth noting. They are loud. If you live in a flat, or terrace, keep the volume down or you might really annoy your neighbours.

1.0 out of 5 stars I have grown to loathe and detest these speakers

d. · 25 August 2022

Having had these speakers for 2 months I have grown to loathe and detest them with a passion because of the auto-power off feature."Why is there no sound in this video? Oh, the speakers have turned themselves off again".I an now thinking of just throwing these in the bin and getting some good speakers, and double checking the new ones don't auto power off.The sound is quality is poor compared to my old Cambridge Soundworks DTT2200.- The auto power off is a design failure. If you want to turn them off let the user do it on the remote control. Also they don't auto-power on after a power cycle.- The volume controls on the remote control don't do anything noticeable to the sound for sub, center or surround speakers.- The PC to sub-woofer speakers are too short.- One set of the inputs are wired the wrong way round.Only good feature should be the ability to turn off the blue light on the sub-woofer, but since the damn thing keeps turning itself off the blue ring at least tells you when it is still on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent

I love everything this product has to offer brilliant sound better than what I seen on the pictures rgb lighting can be changed to any colour what suits you and the sub woofer has a good base sound to comes with a remote control also easy to set up, overall a brilliant product you won’t be disappointed A⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️s

very bad
