A former HK CyberSticks fan--Bravo!
I'd gone through two sets of Harman-Kardon CyberSticks (once they short out, there's not much that's user-accessible). I balked when I saw new SoundSticks approaching $200 but had heard good things about the Cyber Acoustics 3602. Surprise! They blew me away at 1/5 the cost. Perhaps the CyberSticks, with 4 JBL speakers in each, enhance the sound a tad, but the Cyber Acoustics sounded more natural and revealing. The bass, moreover, was overwhelming... Show More

Best bang for the buck, ever
Holy hi-fi, Batman! This thing is sounds fabulous! Mind you, I know jack about the technical aspects of audio systems. But I am a musician, and I do know about the quality of sound production and reproduction. So woofers, tweeters, peak watts and all the rest be hanged, I could tell that the (well reviewed) "economy" speakers that I had been using for my laptop sounded hopelessly tinny and weak. You Tube music audio was baleful, and the Band-In-... Show More

Good for the money!
This is a very easy to install 2.1 speaker system. I purchased these to use with an iMac. All the connections are color coded so you can't go wrong but for those who prefer instructions the unit comes with a well written user manual. After installation I discovered that the 2 small speakers offer very crisp sounds and the mid to high tones are very well replicated. The whole system has excellent volume (read LOUD!) and one of the best things abou... Show More

Decent sound but headphone jack is useless!
The overall sound is a bit too midrange, not enough highs because there's no tweeter. For the price I didn't really expect a tweeter but I did think the speakers could reproduce above 2,000 Hz. If equalized I'm sure it would sound better. My reason for return is because the headphone jack on the controller (included with this product) is virtually useless. When compared to the volume from the headphone out on my Mac the controller reduces the hea... Show More

Hands Down.. The Best!
I bought these speakers for my computer. After a couple of days I moved them to my living room to plug in to my big screen. They sound so fantastic as a 2.1 system I am now looking for computer speakers again. I have never heard so much kick butt bass. It fills my apartment! Strange from such a compact threesome. The two front speakers clarify the mids and highs... and the sub woofer... well, it rivals many expensive home units! I have a TV that ... Show More

Can't go wrong for money
I have had the speakers set up in two different settings. The main use is at my computer desk. I keep the sub on the floor in the back corner of the sitting area. the cone is facing out and the port is facing the wood of the desk. The bass surprized the heck out of me. I have had more expensive speakers with larger subs not sound this good. Clear highs and mids, with very good base.The other night I hooked my computer to the tv to watch a digital... Show More

Best $ I've spent in a LONG time
I bought these speakers so I could use them to listen to my music through my computer with a little extra kick. Holy cow. Way better than I expected them to be. I actually have them hooked up in my living room at the moment, plugged into the headphone jack on the back so I can use them when watching movies.I hold a monthly game night at my house, and last week when people came over, I had the TV on and the speakers pumping. I asked everyone how m... Show More

Just right for the price
You really get bang for your buck with these speakers. Set up took no longer than 5 minutes. The bass is strong for the price tag, it can hit mids and highs very well. Ideal for music, movies, and gaming. However if you're looking to blow your neighbors windows out with dubstep, then you should look into a higher priced/quality system. Also to be noted, I'm very fond of the little puck which has volume and bass control as well as an aux input for... Show More

Speaker Review
The speaker handled pretty well it's very clean with pretty good bass, doesn't sound distorted . However with all the reviews on it I was expecting a little more out of it. I would say for the price and expectations I will give it a 9 out of 10 . There are definitely louder and cleaner speakers out there but they will also cost you a lot more money , If you're looking for something cool and affordable I think this is a safe bet. I had...

Little $40 jewel amazed me!
Many moons ago I opened a Hi-Fi store, carried top of the line stereo receivers,seperate amps, speakers and so on. My two main brands were Scott and Harmon-Kardon.Very few customers bought, although all were impressed---expensive goods. Upon receiving the 3602 system I wasn't expecting much for my $40. WOW, 30 watt rms (60 watt) system totally surprised me, as I was only looking for a speaker system to go with my new computer. ... Show More

Great sound experience on budget.
There is a reason this speaker system is so highly rated on every site. They are actually very good. You will not regret buying it. Suitable for medium sized rooms. Not sure how it will do in bigger spaces, don't have enough space to test. Also it is loud enough to run a party and reverberate in the whole house. I have to keep my computer's volume at 30% and speaker volume approximately around 20% to keep a normal volume. Anything higher goes loud and clear and ends up disturbing my roommate in the other room. If you are on budget, don't think, just get them.

Junk!
The many glowing reviews influenced my decision to purchase this system. When switching it on for the first time, I observed the sound from the left speaker to be muffled and distorted. After testing while connected to various devices, I concluded that this system was defective and returned it to B&H. B&H sent me a replacement. So, I installed the replacement and switched it on ... ARGH! This unit was dead on arrival ... no sound at all! What a piece of junk! I ended up ordering a different product from a different manufacturer.

Versatile Speaker Kit
You can't go wrong buying this kit for under $.In addition to all the positive comments about the CA-3602 System, I find that it makes a very good, (and very inexpensive), TV sound system when hooked up to a blue-ray player. You will need a Y cable to attach to your audio out on your player and also a coupler (1/8) to connect to the audio in on the CA-3602. Makes a huge improvement on sound compared to the tinny speakers on most flat screen TVs. Bought these from B&H about 9 months ago, and as usual the service is great.

Great speakers at a great price!
I am using the speakers for my desktop computer in our kitchen/dining area, where we spend most of our time. I listen to Blues and News while my wife likes Show Tunes. I wanted to get $ Bose speakers because they sound so great, but these at less then $ sound just fine. I get clear quality sound and with the adjustable base so I can custom the sound. My only problem, and it's a very small one, is that the on/off switch on the control pod is recessed and not super easy to work. Overall, great speakers for a great price.

Awesome Speakers :D
I'll make this detailed, though short & sweet. I use these for my dorm room (I hook up my iPod to them)...my floormates have a tendency to complain because the music gets loud easily! The sound is QUITE clear, bass is absolutely excellent (to a certain extent, of course), the volume/bass control knobs are very useful attachments when you don't want to disturb your music device, computer, etc. And there are still so many features that I have yet to use. Awesome product that I plan to use for a very long time. :)

These Speakers Last Forever- What A Bargain
Let me being by saying that I bought a set of identical CA speakers in 2009 for my desktop and I've used them a LOT. Recently, I lost sound in the right speaker so I bought a 2nd set from B&H. While the item was in transit, my right speaker magically revived itself but I am keeping the 2nd set as a backup. There are two takeaways here 1) what speakers can you buy at such a bargain price that sound great and will last almost 10 years and 2) the price increase has been minimal- only been about $5 over 10 years.

Bought To Use With A Laptop
I bought these speakers when the internal speakers on my laptop started giving me enough aggravation that I wanted great sound without having to use headphones. They plug into the headphone jack. How much easier can it be than that?! Phenomenal sound and I love the remote pod. If there is anything not great about them, I have yet to discover it. What I also find amazing is that a tech support man from B&H actually talked me out of purchasing CA speakers that cost twice as much. He said these sound better.

Absolutely amazing
I'm a college student with a decent sized room. I got this 2.1 system about 3 weeks ago and have been loving them since day one. The sound quality compares to systems that are worth around $70. Great bass, clear sound, except midrange seems to be not as great...but midrange is for people who listen to rock and I ain't one of them. The design is unique and cool, and the fact that it comes with a volume, bass, on/off control remote that has blue light in the middle is great. Recommended.

Stellar Quality, Killer Price
I picked this product up to replace the cheapo Logitech desktop speakers I had been using for the past few years. I hooked them up(very straight-forward), turned on my favorite tunes and... WOW. What quality!! These speakers hang with the Bose desktop set my parents have, no problem. The design is sleek and modern, the subwoofer solid and powerful, and I especially like the convenience of the desktop pod that controls sound and bass levels. I cannot reccomend these speakers enough!

Not that great
These speakers sounded alright out of the box. The low end is not tight. but overall a good sound for the price. My biggest problem with these speakers is that the subwoofer has a serious popping issue. Even when there is no audio playing, it will crackle and pop like crazy. It oftentimes cuts out. I tried finding my order on the website to proceed with returning these speakers, but B&H didn't have it listed in my order history. I think I'm fed up up enough now to maybe call in.

Good 2.1 speakers for the money
Things I like about this 2.1 speaker are: desktop volume control, compact size, integrated headset plug on controls. Sound is surprisingly good for this price range and can get fairly loud, although the mid-range is weak. I compensate for the lack of mid-range through my sound card's equalizer settings in control panel. All said, very happy with this speaker purchase. B & H also was a good choice for purchase, as they carried the product at the best price price I could find ...

BEST SPEAKER SYSTEM I'VE EVER OWNED
Needed a new set of speakers for editing, as my old set was good enough. After careful research and consideration I went with this Cyber Acoustic. The wired remote is great. I like that the power switch and volume knob are separate, and it has auxiliary and headphone jacks. The subwoofer is a little bigger than my old one, but the sound is incredible, and the bass control really provides bass. Now, when editing audio and video I can hear everything exactly as it sounds.

Great Value
The CA-3602 has plenty of bass amplitude with its separate volume control. It also ships with a convenient hub with general volume control, on/off switch, headphone input and auxiliary jack to hook up your iPod or audio device.The two speakers are more like tweeters, handling high frequencies - to get warm mid-tones, a good balance between the speakers and sub-woofer must be achieved.For the price, it's a great value. Not to be used as replacement for a high end system.

Great speakers
I listen to tons of music on my computer and wanted to get new speakers. These got mostly really good reviews, but some people were not happy with them. I took a chance and I love them. They were easy to set up, the sound is perfect and you can go REALLY loud. It does take a bit to adjust the bass to a balanced level, bu other than that the set up was easy. I would definitely recommend them. And the shipping was SUPER fast. Literally the next day (free shipping even!)
