Summary: I see a bunch of comments here about no bass. Okay, they're little 2.5" drivers. Here's how to fix it (for $50 in my case): Go to ebay / pawn shop / Goodwill / wherever.... Find an Bose Acoustimass 5 subwoofer (or equiv, mine is a Series II). You're looking for dual woofers inside with Cube outputs on the back . Attach your 161's to the cube outputs (these carry the same 2 pcs x 2.5 inch speakers as the cubes), and inputs to amplifier. The Bass module will cross over your 161's at an appropriate frequency (seems about 100hz) to allow higher absolute output.

Summary: These are a great pair of speakers. I have a Creaitve Gigaworks s750 and used to have a logitech z-680.

WOW. everything sounds great especially at very high volume! great product and for 150...or 100 if u work at bestbuy its a great buy.
