is this better than bose?
I used to work for MTX. These things are pretty weak. Not worth the money.
any good reviews out there ?
It says it comes with mounting brackets but instead of mounting it could I use them on stands?
not better than bose but mtx still sounds pretty good. If I had the money i’d be purchasing instead of posting.
$200 at circuit city. Mostly positive reviews.
i’m still good with my Jaton system i got back in July from woot. thanks woot!

Will this be loud enough to greatly aggravate the dorm on the floor below me?

looks like it would sound good (from the description and specs) but from clicking the image and seeing the inputs on the back, i don’t see how it can be ‘‘surround sound’’. how does the system know what to send to each channel? i didnt see any digital in, or inputs for separate channels. it looked like it had a stereo line in and a stereo ‘‘hi level in’’. so i would think it would be making up it’s own way of doing surround sound. i like my system i got a while back from woot. thanks woot!

You need to hook it up to a receiver. or amp.
$199 at Circuit City for those interested in comparing price

The pic is just the amplified subwoofer. These are speakers only; your tuner has to do all of the 5.1 decoding. When you hook the sub into the .1 channel on your tuner, you have one channel down and 5 to go…
The woofer specifications suck, they only go down to 50 Hz they should go to at least 20 Hz. But for the price, I would pass.

…hook the sub into the .1 channel on your tuner…
Is that anything like having 2.3 children? I always wondered how people had a third of a child, I mean a turd of a child sure, but a third? So do I plus my subwoofer into a tenth of a channel and if so how does that work out? I’m very confused about all of this. Do these speakers work with my brand new over priced SanDisk MP3 player from the woot off?
