Great sonic detail and clarity
Elegant design
Perfectly balanced sound for near-field listening
Understated good looks - especially when matched with MacBook or iMac

Stellar audio performance with excellent clarity in mid and high frequencies. Laudable bass response without a subwoofer. Pulls audio from USB port for cleaner signal. Remote can control iTunes on your PC.

Expensive
Optimized for closerange listening
If you want volume for volume's sake
Look elsewhere
Expensive.
Expensive. Remote control is awkward to hold. Cables could be longer.
Audible damping with high volume and analog input
Bottom Line
Pricey though they may be
They look and sound great on your desktop.
Nonstandard interconnect between speakers. Expensive.
Narrow soundstage
Lackluster power supply
Potential for midbass bloat
Extraordinarily expensive
Audio quality isn't as good when you move out of the sweet spot (three feet away from speakers)
Sound is so detailed it makes MP3s and streaming audio of already iffy quality sound worse
Sound isn't quite as bold as MAudio's AV 40s' — a bit muffled at higher volumes. Not cheap.
