Product Shot 1 The Pros:Easy to connect to an iPod, simple plug-and-play setup. Sound quality is clear and free of distortion. Huge bass output that makes you feel the sound as well as hear it.

The Cons:Satellites are a bit eye-catching and won't work with every room's decor. Audiophiles will notice a few dead zones in the audio.

Otherwise they are the same, with metallic looking wall-mountable speakers and volume control and headphone output on the right satellite. Hercules Aluminium Transduction technology is used in the 1.5 inch drivers in each satellite that increases dispersion of sound for a better envelope in front of the speaker. The subwoofer has a bass control knob built in, and uses a 5 inch driver that resonates inside a wooden case.
