Pros: Solid response through out range. Great value for the price.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I recently trashed the Logitech Z313 2.1 system that I purchased for my office so I feel obligated to redeem them in this review. Considering the fact that I paid less that twenty dollars more for these speakers the difference is like night and day. Ideally this system would be perfect for a small room or home office (there's no way I could use them at work unless I wanted to share my tunes with everyone on the 3rd floor). I use them in the kitchen with my Ipod and they fill up the room quite nicely at less than half volume. Of course, they're not going to compete with high end speakers but they have decent range and excellent base response even with the subwoofer off of the floor. A solid purchase.

Pros: Lightweight and portable.

Cons: Hunts like a maniac.

Overall Review: I purchased my Asus over a year ago when my laptop DVD writer became more and more conspicuous. This thing is much more reliable than most laptop drives. Having said that I am starting to notice incredibly long seek times. Media Monkey takes almost 10 minutes to list the songs on a dvd disk. I'll admit a there is a substantial difference between a DVD and a CD but come on. Cleaning the drive results in no measurable improvement.

Pros: I haven't decided yet

Cons: Satellites sound tinny. Subwoofer is almost pointless. No Aux port.

Overall Review: First of all let me preface this by saying I'm a huge fan of logitech products. I have a Z2300 2.1 speaker system in my home office that I've used for over five years and still sounds amazing. But I have to say that I'm dissapointed with the Z313 system. I purchased these speakers to use at work. I was replacing a really cheap AR system whose speakers were actually blown out by my laptop audio output. I didn't want to purchase a powerful system for use in a shared office so I thought these would fit the bill. The AR system (while lacking in performance) had a few convenient features that I had come to appreciate. The volume control came with an auxiliary jack which allowed me to simultaneously use the speakers with my laptop and my desktop computers. The controller also came with a control for the sub-woofer which allowed me to increase (or decrease) the bass response as needed. The Logitech system comes with neither of these features. I was willing to overlook these short comings until I actually heard the speakers. The satellite speakers sound as if the treble is cranked to the max while the bass response was almost non-existent. I though maybe the problem could be corrected by adjusting the EQ settings on my computer but connecting my iPod yielded the same results. It was so bad that I eventually replaced the Logitech sub-woofer with the old AR unit creating sort of a AR/Logitech Frankensystem. Very disappointing.

Pros: Great looking, reliable.

Cons: Not crazy about USB 3.0 interface.

Overall Review: I have four of them which I've been using for about a year with no problems whatsoever. Not crazy about the micro USB 3 interfaces (sneeze and they disconnect) but it's and industry standard so I can hardly blame Seagate. Great value at a relatively low price.

Pros: Works great. Tracks on almost any surface.

Cons: Good luck keeping track of the transceiver.

Overall Review: This is a nice concept. Unfortunately the tiny transceiver that comes with it is very easy to lose. Once it's gone, you'll have to contact microsoft hardware support (just imagine).

Pros: High capacity in a relatively compact package.

Cons: Constantly wigs out. Not recognized by non-pc devices.

Overall Review: For some reason this thing goes thru occaisional fits where windows won't recognize it. I've had several file transfers stop midstream with the message "Can't access file". I've run chkdsk along with the Western Digital Utilities. Each time the drive passes. Another drawback is that my bluray player doesn't recognize it. I have several external USB 3.0 drives and this one is the only one it doesn't see. I think something may be wrong with the interface. I'm sending it back.
