Review summary	With an excellent subwoofer and two-way sats, this multimedia speaker system does justice to PC games and DVD sound.	If you're willing to spend some cash, this THX-certified 5.1-channel multimedia speaker system is an excellent choice.	This 5.1-channel system offers distinctive styling and a small footprint, but it won't rock the house.	This THX-certified 6.1-channel speaker system generates enveloping DVD and video-game sound, but it's not the best value.
