Summary: Great speakers!
Comment: I bought these speakers to go with my MacBook Pro to do on-site recording & mixing with my ProTools M-Box rig. In a word, these are great. I chose them over the Logitech speakers because you have the option to power them either via USB or via A/C- so you can plug your iPod or portable CD player into them, for example.
Frequency response is excellent, and the imaging / detail is particularly noteworthy. No they don't really crank & will distort in the bass at high volumes, but there has to be a tradeoff somewhere. There's a subwoofer out (which I haven't tried), but if you need louder volumes / more bass, you could plug a subwoofer into them & you should be all set.
They come with a nifty little carrying case and lots of adapters for international A/C outlets. A little pricey, but I think a fair value.

Summary: Nice laptop accessory
Comment: Sometimes you'd like some music for a group where you don't have a formal music set-up. These laptop speakers do a nice job. On a vacation in Italy, all the laptop music, even from the internet, was ringing out. Good volume and tone.

Summary: waste of money and technology
Comment: looks good, but has only 2Watt power. Way less then build in laptop speakers..complete waste of money and technology, but looks good though.

Summary: Ridiculously good sounding
Comment: These ridiculously good looking (yes it looks better than in the pictures) speakers sound even better!
I bought a set for my laptop so that I could use them to watch movies at the hotel on my business trips but I liked them so much that I bought 2 more sets, one for my office and one for my home computer for my kids.
They're absolutely fantastic! Great buy, great sound and great price too!

Summary: Fantastic portable speakers
Comment: I owned the previous version, which eventually gave out. But these are so much better! Unbelievable sound. Includes power adapter (a new feature) which means I can use with my portable MP3 or DVD player without powering up the laptop. Great travel case. As for the USB connection, mine works great and I can still use my laptop's volume control buttons. As for the headphones issue, that's a Window's issue, not these speakers. Anytime you have multiple sound systems installed, only the one using the system's sound board will allow us of the headphone jack. So, just open the Windows controls (Control Panel -> Sounds -> Audio tab) and switch to the onboard and you can use headphones. No need to disconnect.
