Cons

Recommended it?
Yes
The Bottom Line:
For this price, I would recommend these PC speakers to ANYONE! Great job, Philips!
Believe it or not, my girlfriend bought me these PC speakers just hours ago...
And the first impressions are just overwhelming!
This is a fantastic product.
And can you even believe it, that I got these speakers with a large discount. What more do you want?!
I've tried these speakers in my PC games, MP3 songs, DVD movies, .avi files etc. and they are INCREDIBLE!
And trust me, I do have some experience with PC speakers, because I give the sound in general a big purpose. And I've had about 5 different PC speakers since I had my first PC.
And my previous PC speakers (for couple of hours my ex-speakers now, hehe) were not all that bad actually. They were Juster with 200W (quite big in size), but let me tell you that there is absolutely no comparisson between my old and my new speakers. The new wipe the floor with the old in all the departments!
They offer all the things you need and want from PC speakers.
They are very powerful-so that not just my desk is shaking but rather my whole room. And I don't have a small room, believe me!
At 360W with these speakers, you won't need any more power even if you are a hardcore gamer, passionate music listener or someone who is just more demanding.
But even power is nothing if the quality of the sound isn't good, right? And this is where these speakers just take off. Crystal clear sound will make you wonder if you are in the cinema.
Even when you turn on the bass option on these speakers the sound will be great.
In my humble opinion these speakers don't need a subwoofer just because of the bass, because the bass is just good as it is.
It's just the surround system that somewhat decreases the quality of the sound. But that is really minor and is the only thing on these speakers that can be discussable as to their quality.
But that can also be corrected if you are not satisfied with the usage of this option. You can buy a subwoofer of your choice and simply plug it in to these speakers, as they have a specially made port for the subwoofer.
And there is just one tiny thing that bothered me. It's the cable that connects the speakers to the sound card. It's very short, so I will have figure something out, as to where to put my operating speaker. But that won't be a problem.
Ease of use is very good, but I also don't see any changes from other PC speakers in this department, because they basically all operate manually in the same way.
Almost all, like these speakers have all the controls on one speaker from which you can operate everything what there is to operate.
And as for the looks and the design of these speakers, I must say that these are just a beauty. When I went into a store a couple of weeks ago, where they have dozens and dozens of PC speakers, I immediately noticed these speakers, as they trully catch your eye immediately.
But for some, this is not so important, and I agree that the quality of the sound comes first, second the power and everything else, comes behind these two.
But if you have all that, looking good certainly doesn't hurt, right?!
