Linky no worky:)

[Graeme*Kustom*]

Oops, fixed.

You would think I would have got the hang of this by now...

good speakers and was thinking about buying them until I saw the price was hoping they would be around 150-200 lol.

Lot of money for 2.1 speakers that don't really have any toys (digital input, remote control, etc...)

My Logitech Z-5400s would probably trounce these, and they cost me £240 at the time, for 5.1, with three digital inputs, 6-chan analogue input, infra red remote, and the Dolby ProLogic II / DTS decoding.

Nice design, the satellites look like they could do a good job of dispersing the treble, but it's a very steep price for what you're getting...

[Graeme*Kustom*]

Yeh, the price is definitely a negative point of them, and I do agree that the Logitech's perform well. The Razer's you would choose not just for the sound but because the look appealed - they really do stand out.

Though part of me wishes the logos on the top of each speaker glowed too.

I would go for those over any audophile Logitech ones :)
If only they didn't cost £300 (and I didn't already have a 5.1 set of speakers) :(

Yay about time had the suggestion thread open for ages about them

I saw these at the Kustom stand at i33, I'l probbaly be getting myself a set when they are released, the sound quality was phenom and I was really impressed with the control method.

They'll be excellent for my ipod and 360.

Christ, the pair of KRK monitors I have cost that...

[Haanz]

They're a whole lot bigger than I imagined they'd be.

They look nice for sure, but I can't shake the feeling that I'd want something meatier for £300, especially when it's only a set of desktop 2.1.

[Affro]

If your selling your demo pair gimmie a shout ;)

[Graeme*Kustom*]

Just had them on loan for a week, not ours to keep unfortunately :(

[marcus000]

Don't suppose they sell the control unit seperatly?

[Graeme*Kustom*]

doubt it, it's not going to be much use on it's own anyway?

[Forthy]

Would make a pleasing Kustom lighty-up coaster for beer-age, no?

[Graeme*Kustom*]

I've got some light up drinks mats, the LEDs change colour and make (light coloured) drinks look funky.

You can get them from general gadget shops, and probably a bit cheaper than buying Razer speakers for that purpose :)

I think they look f'ugly tbh! can't imagine ever wanting to replace my Harmon Kardons with those...

*snuggles them close, doesn't care she looks like a weirdo* :o

Ironic that someone with H/Ks doesn't have a taste of other strange designs ;)

I wouldn't say they were that strange looking, just don't look as nice ( imho ) as me Harmons ;) and anyway they wouldn't match Bloo :p it's gots to match see! other Girls like to match bags and Shoes, I like to match PC's and their peripherals :p ( Goordon bloody Bennet! how I managed to spell that after me glass of wine i'll never know :p )
