I've been looking for a good speaker system. Looks like a good deal. What are your thoughts?

www.woot.com

I'm really thinking about buying them.

This was the speaker system I bought -

I was the creator of the "Percentage of sales per hour" graph on Woot.

I bought one too, with my madcash4u money, I bought these and Saints row for my 360....Thanks Madcash! lol...I hope they're good...the tower speakers alone are 1000 watts all together, btw, why is shipping so cheap?

Woot always has $5 as far as I know. This is a good Woot. They retail for $170-$200 not including shipping. I've been in need of good speakers for my room too.

are these good quality speakers? Can I hook up my xbox 360 to it and get surround sound?

does anyone know how long woot takes to ship?

^ 1-3 business days.

I'm not sure about the surround sound for the 360 question. Read the comments.

From the comments, it seems as if it's something good, but not spectacular.

well, I plan on taking them out of the box, checking em out, and If I don't like them, selling them on craigslist )

I have some Altec Lansing speakers in my room and they do give surround on the 360 so those should too.

A lot of them aren't that GREAT of deals baby. but I'm sure most of the stuff they've bought is a little out of date and also probably made a deal if they bought X amount.

I'm trying to connect it all to my computer but I think I'll need a special cable to do it.

schf0ol3d the multimedia speakers from logitech? I thought those were cheap. I might pick them up.

unlabeledbooze

12-09-2006 20:11:55

yeah, those speakers look like crap. $13 for 4 speakers. They are also not that expensive is you buy them retail. Only good if you dont have ANY other speakers and looking for the cheapest shit ever.

Hey, J#### I'll message you on AIM, anyways, once you get these speakers up, they're very very nice -D. I have them hooked up to my 360, and I'm testing for a week or so the "3d" sound, which emulates 5.1, then I'm going to get my 5.1 compulator thingy from my garage and hook it up for true 5.1

J4320

12-09-2006 21:28:49

Got the speakers set up.

And....

This was the best woot deal EVER for me. They sound GREAT with my 360.
