I have to say that this isn't a bad set up for the price. It was really easy to get up and running and the sound quality is quite good, except for some "popping" that occurs occasionally in the right speaker. Also, I use them for surround speakers and are using them through the headphone jack on my receiver. So if you want to use them on an older receiver such as my you will have to do the same or purchase a converter. As for me the pros outweigh the cons. Oh and this review is for AW-877, the company sent me the wrong product.
