Overall everything is good ConsI don't have any cons, its definitely a good product from Dell.com Man!! What a sound! I plugged it into my computer, and now I watch on-line movies and news videos with better sound than my $2000 TV has. I'm going to get a second one to use with my TV. from Amazon.com I, like many others, bought these speakers on recommendation from a few top reviews. My Creative 6.1 system died after 5 years, and rather than splurge on another 5.1+ system, I decided to go with 2.1 (I plan on linking everything up to a surround sound home theater system soon anyway). Here's the synopsis: from Amazon.com I needed a simple three speaker setup and the Hercules speakers fit the bill. They are modern looking and go great with a black and silver computer. from Amazon.com I noticed that the left channel speaker had a buzz or rattle every time a song with good mids was played. I plugged the speaker into the other channel to see if the problem was with the RCA port on the sub or with the speaker itself. I also tried to eliminate the source material by using 2 different MP3 players and several different songs, hoping that I would have to send them back... In the end I came to the conclusion that it was indeed the speaker. from Amazon.com We were looking for a 2.1 speaker system that is good and cheap, seldom 2 words you hear together. The Hercules 2.1 lounge speaker kit fits the bill. from Amazon.com Pros: Easy setup, Look great, sound incredible, no electrical hum, no annoying lights, good subwoofer, solid construction Cons: None Other Thoughts: I was looking to replace some off-brand 2.1 speakers I had that were getting annoying. These sound just as good as my roomies Boston Acoustic set! from Newegg.com Cons: On/Off switch on remote AND on subwoofer - don't know about power consumption with remote "off" and subwoofer "on". Short, permanently connected Aux input wire requires extra kit to attach to, say, a second PC. Other Thoughts: Bigger, 2.1 sound for a bigger price than typical desktop speakers. But a nice price/performance point if you want to go there. from Newegg.com Pros: 2.1?Dock?Bass is ok. Cons: Poor sound quality compared to other speakers this price range. from Newegg.com
