Sound stinks. If it weren't for the hastle of returning items I would return these. The only good thing about these is that it's easy to set up. You can't listen to any of your other speakers while you have these plugged in. They go into the headphone outlet of the stereo. I bought these to have additional sound outside. If you have an MP3 player and want to use it for that, it will probably work out better for you. But again the sound isn't all that great.
