Best there is for the price. [Posted on 2008-03-10]
We owned these speakers for over a year. We have them on a PC in our large kitchen. We use them a lot and play them loud. I have not once notice any buzzing or anything like that. I even have the 120 volt AC cords bundled right with these speaker wires. They fill the room with a nice sound thats really well balanced. I have many different speakers in my home ranging from 15" down to headphones. You can't rattle the windows with the bass that outputs from these speakers. I guess that goes for any speaker this size. All I can say is these speakers sound as good as other speakers at twice this price. I would easily buy another pair.
they've been great! [Posted on 2008-07-02]
Definitely a good buy! I've had these for nearly two years, and still using them all the time and have been happy. They live on my table next to my macbook. My tech-y son recommended them and he's been using his own for a long time too (haha, he doesn't even know I called him 'tech-y'. :o)
Big Sound, Small Package [Posted on 2008-07-05]
I needed some speakers for my Mac Pro. I just needed a boost so I could hear my audio books without pressing my ear to the CPU. I chose the JBLs for their price and size. I wasn't expecting surround sound quality.
I was pleasantly surprised with the JBLs. The sound is good and, for their size, packs a much better wallop than I expected.
I have them sitting behind my monitor and have had no buzzing or humming as experience by others.
The adjustable volume knob is a nice feature, although I wish it wasn't as slippery. I have to hold onto the speaker to get a good grip.
I've listened to classical, rock, audio books and jazz so far and I'm very happy with the performance. I've even edited sound effects and can hear everything I need to without putting on headphones. I am happy with my purchase.
2008 version is much improved! [Posted on 2008-08-22]
Most of the bad reviews are from 2007 or earlier. I just purchased these and I think they're wonderful. NO buzz near my computer, next to other adapters or anywhere else. Control knob now has ridges on it and is easy to turn, with a satisfying click. Decent volume for the size, and bass is perfect for classical music (my preference). Small, very light, color matches silver ipod. For the money I don't think you can get any better. Highly recommended.
Great sound for little speakers and price [Posted on 2008-09-02]
For such small speakers they sound great and can get decently loud. I paid ~$30 and at that price they are an excellent deal. I saw several other reviewers mention a buzzing sound - I have not experienced this with my speakers (I've had them a little over two months now).
Only two minor issues: no jack for headphones -and- in order to turn the power off, you have to turn the volume dial to zero. It would be nice if it was a push button dial or had a separate power button so that I didn't have to mess up the volume setting to turn the speakers off.
