However after reading reviews and seeing the star rating I decided that these were the speakers for me, luckily managing to get them for £49.00 (now they're £69) for some unknown reason, I think they were on sale at the time ^^;;But moving on, I received the speakers and to my amazement of the size of the box, the middle peice was bigger than I'd thought, which now sits behind my laptop. The speakers are small, quite and shiney, the colour matches my laptop and room and I love them.
But when plugged into my laptop, finally getting it to work due to my lack of common sense ::laughs:: the sound that blasted out while playing one of my favourite songs was better than I'd hoped. It was clear, crisp, perfect and utterly worth the money I'd paid, even if I'd paid the £69 for them I would have still have kept them, they are simply excellent. Whatever music you play it comes out perfectly, the volume is as loud as heck, especially for myself (for whom blasts the music loud enough to annoy the neighbours below her as she sings to the music). I'm probably never going to crank the music up that loud, but still nice to say in case anyone out there reading wants speakers that'll blow their eardrums, not the loudest obviously, but certainly LOUD for such small speakers.
In conclusion of a long and rambling review these speakers are quite frankly the greatest thing's since sliced bread or whatever you all consider the greatest thing (for me it's not sliced bread LOL.) But if you want loud speakers, sleek and gorgeous design and something to make your sound better on whatever media you use it, buy these, there are none better for this kind of money.
All in all though great speakers if you want to add great sound to your laptop or portable device.
