I had to admit, they're surprisingly good for 2.0 speakers. Review to follow next week, so no video previews for this one :P

Looks great, can't wait to read this review. I might pick up a pair if they are good, I need some 2.0 speakers because my neighbors complain about my bass.

MSRP $130, but you can probably find them for less than $100 at press time. They're pretty expensive, but wait till my review next week for the test verdict to see if you are getting the bang for your buck for premium 2.0 speakers. :P

Wow they are huge for 2.0 speakers from Logitech. In relation to the mid tower case, it is 1/2 the size of it.

After taking a look at those pictures, I now know what big 2.0 speakers look like. Those things are pretty huge compared to normal 2.1 or 2.0 speakers.

That would be done for tomorrow. The review is set on time for this week's publication, so as said in the other thread, we're up for two reviews. (Y)
