Cambridge SoundWorks MicroWorks Amplified Speaker System, Black

Summary: Awesome for both music and PC games....
Review: I bought MicroWorks about 3 years ago (when they cost a lot more [$$$]!). I went out looking for decent computer speakers to replace the tinny HKs that came with my computer. The salesperson in the Cambridge [local store] played these for me and I was stunned by the sound. I shopped around but everything I listened to after that I compared to the MicroWorks and none could even come close. I use the speakers on my PC because that's where I listen to most of my tunes. From downloaded songs to CDs to games...heck, even for listening to the "You've Got Mail" announcement, these things are the best!

Summary: Incredible PC Speakers
Review: I should have known these would be awesome, given the Cambridge reputation. But I was even more surpised when I plugged them in. Very easy to set up to PC - just plug into headphone jack. I am going to get another pair for my bedroom TV- and one for an old boombox - where the electronics still work, but the speakers have died. Now if I can just keep my teenage son from playing them at full volume, I'll be in good shape!

Summary: Best deal out there
Review: I too bought these about 5 years ago, when they cost a lot more. At this price, they are a steal! I guess that's what happens when you continue to build them, and sell a lot of them- great for the buyer. I used to use these at work, but it was too tempting to turn them up loud - my non-fun co-workers didn't like it too much. I've used these to play at a party, hooked up to an MP3 player, and before that, I plugged them into an old boombox headphone jack- whos speakers had died, and the sound was out of this world. Like the fact that the sub can be tucked away and out of site. These babies rock!
