Pros: Not the audiophile but these speakers are way superior to my Logitech z4 2.1 (the children custom mod'd the z4 by punching out the diaphragms) RM8 sound very good indeed for a 99$ Black Friday deal. I'm rockin' some euphoria right now. And the wife who is the Audiophile in this family says they sound good also....

Cons: The wire retention closed gap will not hold 22+ Gauge wire. Had to crimp a connector to accept the Z4 wiring. Size and shape are little different to most desktop speakers I've seen. I'm stretching though, these are good speakers.
