    Harman Kardon Soundsticks III 2.1 Channel Multimedia Speaker System with Subwoofer

    • I can't handle turning the volume as high as it can go, it is really a great system for any size room
    • This system has amazing base as well, and the design and build quality is superb.
    • Great sound system really nice sounding easy to hookup packaged vary well
    • Love this system, amazing sound for a small size!!
    • Moreover, the cord lengths, and durable build, allow their placement further from one another than one would typically experience with a compact sound system
    • I would recommend this system to anyone in the market.
    • This are great sound system, the aesthetics are beyond their years and the sound quality is terrific as far as I am concerned
    • I'm sure there are better sound systems at similar prices, but these speakers do the job, and do it with style.
    • a sub/sat system (with amplification) that rivals even a modest stereo sound system, but I have owned Klipsch, Boston, Creative SL, and probably a few other 2.1 computer setups and all were far better than the Harman in terms of music reproduction.
    • Great sound system if you can get it to work..refund tookAbout a week.
    • The system looks cool & sounds good
    • Not my ideal sound system for a PC, but a huge step up from those cheap Logitech 2.1's
    • The system packs a punch from such a small set up
    • AS YOU CAN!!The System is unbelievably powerful, and does for my computer, what my Bose Audio system has done for years for my main A/V media needs
    • Love this system
    • The whole system takes serious volume abuse with a shrug; only when pushed far beyond any reasonable level does the woofer start to clip
    • These sounds just as good as my Martin Logan’s system, and I paid over $4500 for that
    • I use this system with my IMAC and it works really well.
    • This system is by far the best I've ever purchased
    • Hell, I love this system so
    • One of the best desktop speaker systems ever heard.
    • but when I search for Bluetooth system this appears as the number 1 system to buy.
    • That said this system performs as good as it looks
    • Fortunately, it is for all the RIGHT REASONS, as with this Speaker System, Harman Kardon has literally broken the mold, and then some, and produced this astonishing Speaker System that WOWS
    • Prior to purchasing this, I bought a different sound system (Creative GigaWorks T20 Series II) that immediately was returned to Amazon because the sound was extremely muddy with a lot of fuzzy distortion and noise
    • This is a good choice for a reasonably priced system that requires minimal space on your desk.
    • Someone looking for a crazy sound system that will shake the room and house will obviously have too high expectations out of this, but as I said, if you are aware of what you are buying this will provide you with exceptional sound quality for it's power and price
    • This system is very easy to set up and connect, they are plug and play so no driver needs to be installed
    • Do I love this system?
    • Now, why the hell would I buy another system just to last me another 2 years then break again? and 20% at that
    • For the price, it is absolutely an awesome system for anyone.
    • They are really easy to set up and they produce suchgreat sound quality that my friends often think I am using a much more expensive sound system
    • Now, after much research, if the system goes bad, they won't offer a repair or replacement on the system
    • [Update 09/29/2011]As of today, still the best 2.1 system I've ever owned.
    • Based on my less than impressed experience with it, and all the "It's awesome" reviews, I can only assume that due to the last 30 years of disposable/compressed music and smaller, cheaper digital equipment most people have not actually heard a truly satisfying sound system
    • If you love bass, this is a great system
    • Very awesome system
    • I highly recommend this speaker system
    • Establishing these as a smart buy for those searching for a quality compact sound system with a beautiful modern design.

    • The best sound system I've owned
    • Incredible sound system and easy setup
    • Perfect system.
    • It is such a gorgeous speaker systems, only one small thing I personally don't like it , that is it made by plastic not glass.
    • If your looking for a really loud system, don't get it.
    • In the course of trying to get a return authorized I also found that they had shipped me 2 of the same speaker instead of a left and right, and due to the terrible idea of needing a special hookup for one of the speakers the entire system was unusable in 2 different ways
    • Very stylish speaker system, but the sound quality is horrible and its bulky
    • I really like this system, better than anything I've tried since I bought a Klipsch system years and years ago
    • Unfortunately mine had a wiring defect right out of the box making the system pour mostly static out of the right channel.

    • I love this sounds system, and it looks great in my shelve.
    • The sound is so clear and crisp; Every time I listen to it's sound, I still can't believe that it is just a 2.1 sound sys, it's seems like it is a 5.1 system
    • Listen to this fine Speaker System and judge for yourself
    • Otherwise, this is a great system.
    • With all of that said, these are probably one of the better sounding desktop speaker systems you'll find without spending quite a bit more and using more space as well
    • Decent sound system - not completely blown away by the quality of the
    • Best small speaker system in my opinion, especially for the price.
    • they could use some help with the functionality...such as the woofer adjuster and the volume control on the speakers.....if they just made a remote for those functions, this system is......mind blowing.....if there were 6 stars i'd give them a 7.Again, i will repeat
    • This is a pretty nice system, my only complaint is that there is NO VOLUME INDICATOR
    • Hell, I love this system so
    • I now have several of this brand products as well as their home stereo system and I've been impressed in every situation
    • The subwoofer, while rated a lot less powerful than that of my amazing surround sound system in the living room, is very respectable and generates bass deep enough to be felt by my body
    • I highly recommend anyone looking to buy a good Speaker System for you computer around the $199 retail price , these will give you years of good quality !!!!!!!!!
    • Great sound system i love it
    • The only thing I would change would be a LED lighting system that would change colors or simply pick one color to light up the bass dome and the speaker tubes
    • They outperform any Logitech system I had before

    • This System is so great.... the twin speaker system blast your music or any media
    • I sent it back for a refund and ordered directly from Harman Kardon their HKTS 200 for $199 and this is a much better system that not only sounds good but plays loud for larger rooms.
    • I would definitely recommend to anyone who needs a decent sound system
    • I have tried 4 different speaker systems on it and to date I have to say that this is by far the BEST sounding system
    • I prefer this system since the bass is not so overpowering and can be adjusted
    • The system is a little pricey, but totally worth it.
    • Add to that the fact that the system looks incredible and what more can you ask?
    • Harmon Kardon has a beautiful speaker system in its Soundsticks.
    • Plus, I don't think a pro system could be tough enough to survive very long in a room full of about 20 kids with dodgeballs day after day
    • I adore this speaker system
    • I figured if I was going to have a nice large monitor to listen to music and video's, I should have a nice speaker system.
    • Great system with a clear sound and a nice base.
    • If neither of those things bother you, this is probably the best 2.1 system you can buy for under $150.

    • Overall: Not a bad sound system for the
    • Almost as good as my DJ sound system!
    • very impressive sound system for a smaller space I run off my Mac and iTunes more
    • I was severly injured and in and out of the hospital 3-4 times and became completely disabled with limited resources and now was forced to move due to being completely disabled and had the movers carefully pack up the defective system
    • All in all, if you are looking a super bass heavy speaker system, maybe this one is not for you.
    • This system does NOT disappoint.
    • If you like big bass then this isn't the system for you.
    • The system is a little pricey, but totally worth it.
    • This system is simply dazzling
    • This is a good system for the price but the award winning design is good for looks but has some problems for reality,Pros: Probably the best sound for the price to upgrade your Desktop or Laptop computers sound
    • Now that the system is working, I'll trying connecting it to the speaker jack instead of the headphone jack
    • Pros-The sticks sound great at almost every levelthe base is incredibly loud and easy to adjustI have had many people comment on the look of system.easy male audio jack for any deviceCons-Im afraid of blowing them out, i wish they had a system with higher watts.the volume control on the stick is very sensitive and is often accidentally hitThe light on the subwoofer is annoying when you are trying to sleep.sometimes even when you turn the base down low, it over powers the soundsticksIm still looking for a high volume speaker but in the meantime this 2.1 system is perfect for any dorm or bedroom.
    • This was a gift for my husband who works at from his desk daily (nearly 24/7), and appreciates a quality sound system to keep him energized
    • IMO this is one of the best 2.1 computer speaker systems available
    • recommended!For your information the sub has an LED the two desk speakers do not light up as far as I can tell I thought they did, when you look at pictures people have posted someone has this set with light up speakers, however into reading it further the person added led to his set?Was kinda bummed but still amazing speaker system

    • n’t go wrong.
    • Ultimately tried to return and received a series of belligerent e-mails from the seller about how "this had never occurred in the history of the company".Unfortunately, when buying anything second hand through Amazon you are rolling the dice
