You could pay more and still think they're a good buy.

Comment:
I bought these speakers because I wanted good sound for little money. That's exactly what these speakers delivered! When compared to high quality speakers, they do sound a little flat. But for about $20, these speakers perform beautifully.
They have very good bass for not having a sub-woofer (I listen to trance regularly on them and they do the music justice). They can get nice and loud and still sound clear at high volumes. The headphones jack is very convenient as well. It makes controlling the volume on the headphones more practical; It feels more natural to control the volume by turning a knob rather than modifying the computer's master volume.
What are the speaker's worst qualities? I'd say they feel a bit cheap. The volume knob, which I just praised, feels a bit too tight. This is noticeable because there is no grip on the knob. But this is a minor inconvenience since the volume knob is as precise as it needs to be. All in all, I wholeheartedly recommend these speakers.

Pay a little more and get better speakers

Comment:
When the volume is turned up about 1/3 way, there is crackling in the speakers. Other people have complained about that as well. I would pay a little more and get something better.

Great speakers for what they are.......

Comment:
This is the exact speaker the I.T. department gave me at work. For a laptop with limited deskspace, these are great sounding, so I got a pair for home. True audiophiles or gamers may not be impressed, but I happen to think they have great sound and fit my needs. Plus, they are small enough to be somewhat portable.
I tried to buy these locally, but the style/model has changed and I really did not care for the stand on the newer model as it looked really cheap, and not well put together. The stand on these older style speakers looks much better and appears to be much sturdier.
Any big box retailer has a selection of 2.0 channel PC speakers in this price range, but some have such a low output, they are not even worth trying. These CA speakers are a cut above.

Average Computer Speakers; Recommend with Reservations

Comment:
Great Aspects:
These speakers are fairly small but still project sound well. Volume is not a problem. It is obviously very simple to use.
Downside:
Sound clarity isn't perfect and you can tell that the sound is coming "from computer speakers." Bass is okay but nothing to get excited over. The headphone connection doesn't work very well, resulting in a distinct hissing when using headphones (so just plug the headphones right into the sound jack of the computer).
Summary:
These are average computer speakers and should be considered if the price is good such as a cheap upgrade at an online computer store. The speakers get the job done but in an ordinary fashion.
Recommend with Reservations.
