A speaker ruined by it's subwoofer and high price tag
Pros:
Satellites are good sounding, clear highs and mids.
Cons:
Boomy subwoofer and high price tag. The VS2221 is a better choice.

Good points:
1. Satellites are good sounding, they sound crystal clear, the highs and mids are great. Highs and mids are not muffled.
2. Nice design.
3. Easy to set-up.
4. Has treble and bass control in one of the satellites.
Bad points:
1. The subwoofer is very boomy, it's not punchy but a muffled and distorted boomy low frequency sound. Subwoofer overpowers the satellites and all you can hear is muffled, boomy and distorted low frequency sound.
2. No remote control.
3. High price tag. The high price tag is really not justified by it's boomy subwoofer design. No wonder this speaker was quickly replaced by it's older brother, the VS4221 model.
The VS2221 is a better choice than this. I can't really recommend this speaker, high price tag and boomy subwoofer that will annoy audiophiles.
EDIT: I received several complaints that the mids are hollow. Yeah, they are right, its a mixed bag, in some songs, the mids are ok, but in some, it is really hollow, like listening a sound at the end of a hollow tube. I think this speaker is very sensitive to the kind of sound card you are using.
