| 1195754 | 2011-04-23 13:45:00 | IMy reasons: Windows 7 refused to use the rear speakers for music in any meaningful way. That sounds more like a problem with Win7 than the speakers or possibly the music files just weren't good enough. |

The speakers were fine, and tested fine with front and rear functioning properly. However from a stereo source such as music only the front ones made any noise, rendering the rear completely useless. There were ways to use them as virtual surround or effects but this did not sound good. You may consider this as functioning properly, however XP fed the left and right to the rear speakers as well and it sounded a lot better. When I looked into and considered what I actually listen to, I went back to stereo speakers and I'm happy with it. Surround just doest work on a corner desk anyway (not mine at least) |
