Rating : - Poor Sound Quality
First of all, this speaker is for the office and not for music or entertainment. It has poor sound quality, and it sounds worse than the $10 dollar speakers I got from my brother. If you're going to be using these speakers for entertainment, do not buy these.

If you are looking for entertainment speakers, buy the 2.1 or above. Don't buy one like these.
