  Poor customer service make this a company to avoid.

  Pros: Sound is OK

  Cons: My dog ate the speaker wires which make the product unusable. They refuse to sell me new ones consistent with their policy not to sell replacement parts. These wires are only available from the company.

  Summary: Can't you find a better rated product that the company will service.

  The best speakers I have ever had!

  by cnooth on June 18, 2009

  Pros: I love the sound they produce, so clear and without any distortion. Sometimes I feel like a real band plays in front of me. Wicked design and build quality.

  Cons: In some songs what start with lots of middle and high frequencies and when bass starts after a while I notice little drop of the level of middles and heights.

  Summary: Amazing design and unusual technology. Downward firing speakers and 300-watt Audera ClassHD digital amplifier produce extremely high quality sound. Sometimes I feel like a real band plays in front of ...

  Summary: Amazing design and unusual technology. Downward firing speakers and 300-watt Audera ClassHD digital amplifier produce extremely high quality sound. Sometimes I feel like a real band plays in front of me. So clear and my ears never get tired of it. Even can sleep with some music on :-) I can hear details in some songs I could not hear on any other system including Technics top-end amplifiers with proper speakers. Just one problem I have come across. In some songs what start with lots of middle and high frequencies and when bass starts after a while I notice little drop of the level of middles and heights afrerwards. Good example could be Thunderstruck by AC/DC or Money For Nothing by Dire Straits. Perhaps that unusual amplifier construction causes this issue. Satellites have a bit thick and wide cables. I understand that satellites are bi-wired (4 wires) but I would really appreciate if it was designed more round. Then it would be easier to hide or use. I bought this system after disappointing experience with Logitech Z-2300. Had to return to a shop because could not stand the sound. When I first time connected Razer Mako and listened to it I loved it straight away. My first impression hardly has been wrong. For instance I hated Logitech Z-2300 from first time I used it. The sound plays very important role in my life. Since a while I switched to MP3 and play all my music from PC or iPod nowadays. Most high-end amplifiers and speakers are constructed to reproduce music from CD. They usually do not sound good with PC or MP3 players. Therefore I decided to go for 2.1 system what is usually capable of great sound from MP3s. Films and games are also great sounding with this system. I am recommending Razer Mako to everyone who appreciates the quality of sound and it is worth that steep price (paid £225 on ebuyer) without a shadow of doubt. It does deserve 5 stars but I gave it just 4.5 because of that signal dropping issue. Well done Razer and THX :-)

  This product blows

  by Jack_Frost1456 on April 24, 2009

  Pros: Design perhaps.

  Cons: Sound sucks. I have been a Klipsch 2.1 promedia owner for six years after they broke, I thought I would try these. Bad idea. The Klipsch sound tis wice as good for half the pice. Take my advice and buy the Klipsch for $150.00.

  Summary: Buy Klipsch promedia 2.1 for half the price and twice the sound (no I don't work for Klipsch--I'm just Criminologist who loves music).
