Has gotten cheap and noisy
This product has really gone down hill. It used to be a very good speaker system for a desktop setup. However, with this latest version, they removed the power button, so now when you switch from headphones to the speakers, you get a loud pop and buzz. Terrible. In addition, there is now a low level hiss that comes from the speakers at all times. This did not happen with the older pair of these that I had. This was so annoying in a quiet room that I had to return them. Really disappointed. Some engineer thought it was a good idea to save .40 cents on the power supply and make a cheaper one and instead ruined a good system.
