Amazon.com Product Description
The CA-4100 offers true 4.1 surround sound with flat-panel-design satellites that take up minimal space. Compatible with four-channel and two-channel input, these speakers work with the latest sound cards to produce enhanced audio quality for the latest music and digital audio applications. Convenient desktop controls on the satellite let you adjust master volume and rear channel surround volume to create the most comfortable audio experience. Magnetically shielded satellites and custom mounting brackets for the rear channel satellites give you control over how and where you place your speakers.
Product Description
When 5.1 surround sound requires too much desktop space due to the center channel, then the CA-4100 is your solution. This 45 watt model offers great sound. Four satellites create solid high frequency performance and the subwoofer delivers amazing performance. If you are on a budget and ordinary 5.1 systems are too expensive, then this is a serious solution to be considered.

 very nice March 28, 2007
I love these speakers. The price is great for the quality. Treble is a little overpowering at first but I got used to it. I was looking for something that wasn't "bumpin" for the bass end. My last pair of speakers' woofer was completely enclosed without any ports. These speakers have a port and the speaker area of the woofer is open, so the bass is heavy without the BOOM. Very Nice.
Great start up system January 4, 2007
I like it very much, actually got the black set, good quality sound set up is a breeze, using it with a media center PC and audigy sound card.
price was great. I did not wanted to out do my home stereo, but now my PC sounds better thant than it.
It was a grat buy
 Inexpensive and decent April 2, 2006
First off, some clarification:
1) This system is actually 45 watts (not 30 as described here); see Cyber Acoustics website for accurate specs.
2) My system is black (not white as shown here).
PROS
1) Price-Found this set on sale in store for $20; hard to find another decent 4.1 system for that price.
2) Decent sound-With only 45 watts, the sound certainly won't be the best, but this system still sounds pretty good for DVDs and music. The sound is clear and the bass is not distorted-the subwoofer really integrates with the 4 satellites.
3) Wall brackets-Included for rear satellites.
CONS
1) Surround speakers-Though the power output is supposed to turn up to the same as the front speakers, the rear speakers seam quieter. If they are too far away it is easy to not hear them at all unless you adjust them louder in surround-sound card software.
2) Bass-No separate volume control; must use surround-sound card software or media player equalizers.
3) Volume-Due to low power, don't expect this too get super-loud, but I find them plenty loud while watching movies.
OVERALL
For the price, you really can't beat these speakers. They are great for me for now, though I foresee trading them in for a more powerful 5.1 system some time down the road to complement my external 5.1 sound card on my laptop. For a tight budget and a small room, this system is worth its low price.
Unless you have or plan on getting a good 5.1 sound card (and DVD-playing software that can decode 5.1), there is little need for more than a 2.1 system. Especially with these, because you'll hardly notice the rear speakers, which will have the same sounds as the front anyhow. See my other reviews for a great external 5.1 sound card for a laptop (desktops are better off with internal sound card).

I bought this product (cost 40) for company use (that's why it's cost 40) base on coworker's recommendation from another office. The quality is disappointed after I installed & tested it. It's not shielded so the interference is quite a serious problem, but I won't get blame afterall since this is not my decision.
Don't be fool by the 4.1 speakers, compare to my another set of 2.1 speakers (cost 20) it's not impressing at all.
There are many good speakers out there, do your researching and will happy with what you got.
Please, spare yourself the trouble October 11, 2003
Well first the description is very overstated. I went out looking for some surround sound speakers to replace my ones i have now (which arent bad), and found something that looked good on paper (the box), but dont sound nearly as good. I didnt set it up in the room, I noticed the wires are very short, I like to atest the speakers just out of the box rather than set it up and be dissapointed, i put on one song (rap), and it sounded at first like a pleaser, but when I turned the volume up, the bass distorted. The flat panel (and somewhat heavy) speakers aren't really that bad, but the sub isn't that good. It distorts very easily and I dont reccomend this to music- people. The bass isn't bad at low volume though, but you really can't push this system far without it interfering with you (attempting) to enjoy your music.
