Used one of their mice many, many eons ago (late 90's - early 00's). It was decent at the time (for a low end cheap mouse). Probably no Logitech killer though (in the same price range).

We'll see for the test results. Logitech makes surprisingly good speakers, even for an audiophile like me. Genius has been around for age, but it's not until recently that they really bumped their marketing up.

I've used their keyboard as I've found out in my basement the other day the generic ****. Hopefully their speakers are better.

They're pretty decent from preliminary tests. I haven't hooked them up to my X-Fi HTHD yet though.

Hopefully this is better than their POS keyboard.

I'm still breaking in these speakers right now. It doesn't sound particularly brilliant with my iPhone, but it's pretty good with my X-Fi. Full evaluation will follow :P

Well, gaming speakers don't always have to be surround speakers. I'll do some gaming tests with this as well :)
