    5 of 5 Sound solution to sound problems Sunday, June 01, 2008
    carl miller from New York, NY  

    I recently purchased the Harmon Kardon SoundSticks II Multimedia Speaker System - 2.1-channel - Transparent speakers because my old computer speakers were not living up to the majesty of my new iMAC 24" system. What a great solution! Not only are these speakers knighted with a fantastic sound in the upper and midrange ends but are possessed with a crisp, clear bass at the lower foundations of music where it really counts. These qualities and the incredible price make these speakers an unbeatable combination of style, value and coolness. You can't go wrong with this product. A true "5" in every sense of the word!

    5 of 5 Clear sound, stylish speakers and sub Friday, February 01, 2008
    David from Lubbock, TX  
    I wanted good sounding speakers for our home computer without paying a ton of money. My brother has these and loves them so I thought I'd give them a try. Very easy to set up. Everytime I listen to music I'm amazed at the sound quality. All the reviews I've read about these are positive and I add mine to the list. Great speakers!

    5 of 5 Best low-cost speakers I've ever heard. Tuesday, September 25, 2007
    Chris R. from Fort Collins, CO  
    Being a college student, I don't have a lot of money to spend, so this was a godsend for me. I was looking for a great pair of speakers for my comuter (these work with a headphone jack or a white/red audio-in adapter, which are both included) , did some research, and found these. They arrived promptly about 5 days later, and I've loved them ever since. The sound quality is phenomenal, especially with a few tweaks, and with lossess music, these speakers are the epitome of perfection. The only downside I found was that they don't have a headphone jack, but it's simple enough to switch output from the speakers to say, headphones. I really liked the clear design and deep bass delivered by the subwoofer, and I think anyone who loves music will love these HK speakers.

    5 of 5 Amazing speakers at an amazing price. Wednesday, August 22, 2007
    Chris R. from Fort Collins, CO  
    I'm a college freshman and decided to order some speakers to go with my laptop in my dorm room. I love listening to music, and I can honestly say I am the biggest audiophile I know, and these speakers were perfect for me. I first found out about these from my dad, who has had a set for about 3 or 4 years, and they're still booming. The sound quality on these speakers is amazing, they're very easy to set up (took me less than 5 minutes), and they look great anywhere. The clear design is definitely a nice touch. The only downside is that it takes a bit of tweaking to get the subwoofer to sound absolutely perfect. Overall, these were a great value for what I paid, they sound phenomenal, and they're definitely a must-buy for any audiphile who is restrained by a budget.

    4 of 5 Satisfied Monday, August 06, 2007
    Yo from Baton Rouge, LA.  
    I bought the Sounds Sticks to replace my other speakers that went out. They were simple to hook up. I am running on XP, so there was no driver or software to install. Just plug and play. Others have commented about the volume control which is not hard at all to use. You just have to reach over to touch the speaker. My Keyboard also lets me control the volume from it. I'm a fan of sound, having Klipsch in the living room and the Klipsch Player (Better than Bose) for my Ipod. The Sound Sticks were cheaper, so I gave them a try. They have great clarity for the highs. The Bass has the right amount of pounch, not too deep, but a good mix. The only draw back is that you can not use your surround EQ with these speakers (I cound on my other). The adjusments on the speakers sound good though. I do not think anyone would be disappointed with these.

    5 of 5 Wonderful 2.1 Speakers Tuesday, July 03, 2007
    A Customer from Brooklyn, NY  
    Sound clarity is excellent out of the box; even better with a top-end sound card. Subwoofer, while only 20 watts, packs a punch. This set of speakers is worth the money.

    5 of 5 Great sounding PC Speakers!!!!! Tuesday, May 01, 2007
    intenseflipper@comcast.net from Lakewood, CO  
    I am very happy with these even though they look a bit odd. These soundsticks ROCK!!!!!!! I have recommended these to several friends now. They are all very happy. The subwoofer has a nice tighter thump than most. It's not sloppy and boomy like the Bose companion 2 system. (My previous speaker system)

    5 of 5 Great sensitivity/crisp Friday, April 20, 2007
    A Customer from Middletown, NJ  
    These speakers pick up EVERY accoustic nuance, perfect sensitivity. The louder you play them the more crisp they sound. Basically a perfect system except that there is no trebble adjustment which I would bump up a bit for certain rock songs. They have an equalizer built in that works great but not perfect depending on your preference in sound. Subwoofer is plenty powerful and crisp as is the whole system. Unless you feel like spending $350+ buy these.

    5 of 5 Worth the price . . . yup Friday, April 20, 2007
    po from atlanta, georgia  
    I spend the day in an office using a laptop. lack of an on-off switch is somewhat annoying, but oh well. They sound great, look interesting and sound great. Did I mention that they sound great? Nice and clear with well defined bass. I have a set of Logitech 2.1 speakers for our home computer and I'm seriously considering trashing them and getting another set of these.

    5 of 5 Great Speakers Saturday, April 14, 2007
    debra@smartechsolutions.com from Houston, Texas  
    These speakers are great. I wanted a simple, straightforward audio solution for my home office and they are perfect. The very creative design was what led me to choose them and when they arrived (free shipping and VERY quickly), I was happy to find they are also of excellent quality. I had a little trouble with the volume controls on the satellites because the documentation is somewhat lacking, but now that i have figured it out, I am very happy that i bought this system.

    5 of 5 Low's , Mid's, High's, worth every dollar buy em n Thursday, November 09, 2006
    Jhunding from Hiram, GA.  
    Before buying the spearkers, I actually read the reviews. At first I thought they sounded like they were paid to praise. I decided to give them a try. I recieved them yesterday within 2 min.s they were installed and I was jammin. The differance was night and day. Now I don't know alot about computer spreaker systems, but these are incredible, the sound, design and space saving. UNREAL! I truley wonder, if these are not the top of the line speakers for the PRICE, whats is? The only improvement to the speakers would be to illuminate the "- and +" volume control buttons and Illuminate the SAT. speakers like the sub. YOU CAN'T GET A BIGGER BOOM FOR THE BUCK!!!!!! Do your self a flavor, buy now, and tell your better half later.

    AKC from Edgewater, New Jersey  
    Not only do these speakers have a gorgeous apperance, they also rock like hell. I have played everything from heavy metal to classical to rap on these bad boys and it all sounds unbelievable. This is the best purchase you could make and the price is more than fair.
