GOgroove BassPULSE 2.1 Computer Speakers with Blue LED Glow Lights and Powered Subwoofer - Gaming Speaker System for Music on Desktop, Laptop, PC with 40 Watts, Heavy Bass

I bought this to add to my newly built system. I have nothing negative to say about it so far, only good things!Why I bought this brand? - I will admit that I was not very sure what I am spending money on when I clicked the One-Click button and made the purchase. Let me emphasize that this was not an impulse buy by any chance, I did research a bit about 2.1 speaker systems and did consider other models, mainly Logitech and Creative, before I bought this! What worried me though was the fact that I had never heard anything about this brand or their reliability, and there was very little information available on the net, which is not a very reassuring sign. But I decided to go with this, mainly because of 2 factors:1) Aesthetics: My new build has blue led fans all through out - 7 fans on the case and 2 CPU cooler fans! So Blue was definitely the predominant theme on the desk and this added to that very elegantly. So yes the major reason I stumbled upon these and got stuck was because I was searching for speakers with some LED lighting on them. I know it is not a very technical way evaluate a speaker, but who wanted to get technical and spend a bomb on a pair of speakers for your computer - not me! I have a 7.1 home theater set up for serious listening and entertainment, this was majorly for listening to some light music while I worked and for my 2 year old son to watch Thomas (he loves Thomas) and for my amateur movie soundtracks!2) Price: This definitely is not the cheapest or the costliest out there, computer 2.1 speaker systems can be your from $15 bucks onwards upto around $400. This falls towards the lower mid range when it comes to money, which was okay with me, I was not going to spend more than $50 for a pair of speakers and I could have got a more known brand for that price, but non of those well known brand out there even came close to these beauties in terms of looks and aesthetics! It was between this and  Harman Kardon Soundsticks III , if I had got the Harman Kardon for $50 I would have defenitelly bought those! :)Okay now to the actual product review:I was pretty surprised when I got the speakers. They were very well packaged and had a cardboard padding around them in the box and the speakers and subwoofer was very well protected! It comes with a 3.5mm cable!Took them out while my son was playing with the box and got it hooked up in under 5 min, this included some cable management, and referring to the manual once. I had to look at the manual because I could not find where the input jack was to which the speaker cable would connect to on the subwoofer. It looked like a screw hole at the back of the speaker, but it is the input jack (for any one who is as blind as me)!Hooked the light green 3.5mm cable to connect to the motherboard audio jack, same color (refer you motherboard manual to be sure, if you don't know) and connect the other end to the subwoofer, attach the speaker wires to the subwoofer and plug the power cord into the wall and switch it on. That's it, that is all of the setup required, no CD's to run, no software to download!Once on you see the true splendor of the blue LED lights, it looks better than in the pictures, it is definitely a good buy if you like LED lighting, if not then don't buy it because there is no way to switch the lights off, it will stay on as long as the speaker is on! I like it that way. The sound is great quality too, exceptional for this price and it plays bass very well as well, you can definitely feel it if you have them on the desk like I do!They are very stable on the desk, another added plus that I was worried about, I have had speakers in the past which were very wobbly and would tip over with the slightest force like a keyboard touching it! But not this one, they are pretty well designed for stability.The 4W satellite speakers are excellent for music, I've played all kinds on them, they all sound equally good, as good as you can get on a 2.1 setup, the sound isolation on the left and right is awesome and the drivers do a more than sufficient job. The bass comes from the 9W subwoofer and that is great sounding too. While playing games bombs and gunshots sound very realistic and you have volume and bass controls right on the front panel of the subwoofer!So overall it provides good value for money and a great looker too. My only wish is that it would have come with a remote control, that would have been great and I wouldn't have to bend and reach every time I wanted to soften the volume or bass a little bit (I place my subwoofer on the shelf under the desk and not on it)! But hey apart from that I was pleasantly surprised with the quality and performance so far, reliability I'm waiting to find out, its only been a week since I started using it, will update this review if something goes wrong, although I have a very strong intuition that this will last long, if I manage to keep it far out of reach from my 2 year old! :)

** LENGTHY REVIEW AHEAD. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. LOL **I was born on October 21, 1978, which makes me thirty-six years old as of this review.Anyhow, I am permanently bedridden and in a nursing home due to advanced and aggressive Multiple Sclerosis. After my laptop died, my only form of recreation is my Samsung Galaxy Avant smartphone. It has a veritable library of music and videos on it. Other than that, it's been things such as Kindle, Netflix, Solitaire, YouTube, etc...However, my ears have been ringing incessantly, making it sound like I am underwater for months now. With no-one even checking my ears, let alone trying to solve the problem, I had to resort to purchasing an actual speaker system, just to be able to hear my cellphone, for crying out loud! All because all of the headphones that are out now either hurt my ears, don't stay in my ears and/or give me migraines. The ONLY pair of headphones that have EVER been perfect for me in EVERY way Sony up and decided they just HAD to discontinue. Trust me, I'm nowhere NEAR the only person livid by Sony's decision, by the way. Oh well, it's their loss, a BIG loss, I might add. So, I was "forced" to go THIS way, instead. At any rate, this one "ticked" all of my "boxes", and then some. This makes it the Proverbial Cloud's Silver, Gold AND Platinum lining.1. It uses my cellphone's headphone jack for the audio.2. It uses its own AC power cord that easily plugs into my surge protector for power, freeing my cellphone's mini USB, so I can power my cellphone at the same time! Most of the other speaker systems I've seen uses the cellphone's mini USB to power them, so this is a HUGE PLUS!3. This speaker system actually comes in RED! - My "signature" color. My laptop, mouse, cellphone cover, male to male cord (it didn't say it cones with one here, so I purchased one just to be on the safe side), ALL RED Even the stone on my Class of '97 ring is RED. My high school's colors are actually Blue and White, with Red only being used as an "accent" color to make sports teams and cheerleaders uniforms and whatnot look "Patriotic". Even the birthstone for October is either something that looks like a Pink Diamond, or an Opal, both of which I hate with a vengeance, ugh! *shudders* LOL So Red has been my color for quite awhile now. I'm "slightly" on the Photophobic side, with Non-White LED Lights being the ONLY type of lights I can handle and don't give me migraines. So, Hallelujah, I can handle looking at RED LED Lights!4. Not only can *I* FINALLY hear my cellphone, in stunning clarity no less, I was actually asked to turn it DOWN because my neighbor, FROM ACROSS THE HALL, heard it OVER his television! - My nurse at the time even thought it was a STEREO!5. I have received so many "whoa's" and compliments, over LED lights, quality of sound, the fact that the two satellite speakers are as thin as they are, yet more powerful than speakers two times, three times, even four or more times as thick as they are. They also think it's cool you can adjust the bass and volume independently of each other, the LED lights and power it on/off, all on the subwoofer alone. I'd have to concur with them.6. Additionally, I'm more than a bit wary over new products, and whether or not I'll be able to operate them, because of the loss of feeling and dexterity caused by my MS. The knobs on this unit are easy enough, though, even for me to work. Even so, they're not flimsy, either.7. All this, for just about $60.00 (which means free shipping if you purchased it on Amazon)? And that's just for ONE customer, ALONE. *ahem* I'm just sayin'...Needless to say, I am so thoroughly impressed by this spea.ker system, and love it so very much, that I have recommended it to every aide, doctor, nurse, etc... Now I Thank God Sony discontinued those headphones of theirs.(If you actually made it to the end of this review, I appreciate it and applaud you, as anything I write tends to be called a novel. LOL)

They work well for a year

It Could use more bass as is I would give it a 3 to 4 star for bass.

Bought these speakers not really knowing what to expect out of them. I thought they looked cool and didn't really read many of the reviews.Plugged them in, they sounded nice. I am no audio master or anything like that but they certainly did what I needed them to do. Fast forward to today. The right speaker has gone VERY quiet, can't hear anything from it. I am pretty disappointed in the product for the price point they should last much longer. I hardly even had the volume loud at all at any point so there really shouldn't be an issue here but there is.2 stars, they sound good but if you have the money to drop on speakers put it on a pair that will last you longer than these ones did for me.

Sound quality is bad, the unit is made out of cheap plastic, the lights really dont look good at all and are clearly very cheap, however the bass is pretty ok. If this was 30-40$ would be no problem. Cheap crap should be cheap. Oh wellI replaced these with a 70$ cyber acoustics set that is higher quality all around, better looking and significantly better sound.

Las bocinas son compactas y esteticamente lucen mucho, a mi mujer le encanto el diseño, el sonido es aceptable, ciertamente no es lo mejor en fidelidad ni potencia pero es justo y adecuada para su precio mas accesible. Son mas chicas de lo que imagine, pero no demerita en absoluto su valor

It came in just last week and quite well packaged as well. Took me a bit of time to set them up for technical purposes ((by that I mean cleaning up the desk and adjusting my wiring)) as well as removing the corner caps ((cheap cushions honestly but hey, whatever)). The sound is pretty good honestly, and it drops the bass really good as well. Adds some flare to the desk when set up right, and with the right color as well. For those considering it, I would highly recommend them.

Extremely over-priced gimmick. Arrived damaged ( speakers never strobed with music, base never lit up) and customer service was a nightmare, ending with them refusing to replace them. To add insult to injury, the sound quality is horrendous and bass audibly vibrates the speakers.
