Summary: This is a Perfect 5.1 - 6.1 Sound System
Review: Don't you just not like it when peeps over Explain something in a review.Oh Ok read the title of this Review. well thats it (bye)
Hahaha ok
I'll say a little more heh
Well, they are cool Speakers and great Bass . These things are good for Movies,Games,Music and or ummmm hearing your PC turn on at startup heh: )
This system has a Headphone Jack on the volume and BassVolume Selector Which can be put anywhere you want like in your lap for example (Warning: This May Make you even more lazy)
I can say that I can't even use the Extra bass on this it already has enough!!! So on most Defualt Pc's you use the microphone input for the subwoofer and Center speaker plug for this system . With that said I unplug it I need it for the microphone but, great thing tho it Actually doesn't change the bass Subwoofer at all. It still has very good sound that comes out even with that unpluged and my Volume bass Selector turned almost down all the way. Still has too much Bass, is that a good thing or a bad thing? I have Actually have been shocked at times jumping to the Vol knob as it sounded like I would have busted my speakers with what came out sometimes if I didn't run and shut if off but, everything is fine.
Well as far as blowing out your speakers go, you would really have to Turn bass & vol up on the selector and put on your best Bass mix. Also turn up PC Vol & bass and whatever mediaplayers Vol & bass up and just let it go all day to blow it out lol
I use Defualt Sound card but, with Creatives newier Sound Cards this wouldn't Hurt but sounds Awsome without that setup so I can Imagine the Great sound that would make.
And..
So there you go a nice and short Review heh not like those other reviews huh
: ) lol (shugz sholders and hopes you got that one)
Anyway
Stay Cool.....Laterz

Summary: Too much hiss
Review: Although in the past I have appreciated Creative Lab products, these speakers had to go back after a week because of the continual, and quite audible, hissing noise they made when no program was running, even at low volume levels. I have a Dell machine with an Audigy 2 sound card, and I tried to troubleshoot the problem by swapping out four sets of speakers on the machine, including some that are over 6 years old. No other speakers demonstrated the hissing problem. I am not sure if this is a quality control issue, or a poor shielding issue, but having three speakers constantly hissing within 18 inches of your ears gets old pretty quick. I would describe the sound quality as very good considering the price point. Don't expect tremendous quality, but you also won't be breaking the bank.

Summary: Great speakers for its price
Review: Creative lowered its prices recently and for about $85US these babies will fill your room with sound. I listened to a few sound systems and made my choice after weighting price vs performance. Here are the pros and cons as viewed from the pt of view of a wanna-be audiophile: Pros: 1. Excellent build quality and packaging (too much packaging)
2. Above average clarity, tight bass
3. Satellites can go VERY loud
4. Connecting wires are pretty long
5. Wired remote with headphone jack
6. Nice design, the grill on the subwoofer is detachable
7. Price
8. Sub is twice as big as the Inspire 5.1 5200's Cons: 1. Need at least 10-15 hrs to break in. DO NOT crank'em without breaking them in first because they will sound poorly.
2. The sub still needs more power
3. Upper mids are ok, lacks lower mids
4. Way too many wires (6(spk) + 3(audio) + 2(remote & power) = 11 wires leaving the sub)
5. Centre satellite is the SAME as the other ones, 20 watts...probably, but you can't tell the difference anyway.
6. Not enough sound coming through the centre and rear-centre satellite when playing music Overall this is a great system for [the price]. Without the Audigy 2 with CMSS2 enabled they will sound flatter so do yourself a favor and get an Audigy 2 snd card if you're planning to buy these.

Summary: Very good for a PC Gaming System
Review: I recently bought these speakers, and I am very satisfied. Sure, they are relatively cheap, and therefore, not top of the line. But I am very satisfied with the sound quality.
I am using this on my PC Gaming system, and for that, these speakers are perfect. Let's face it: You do not need home-theater quality for a PC gaming system. At least not yet (there are very few games that actually support a system this advanced). So if that's what you want to use this for, you should be happy with these speakers.

Summary: Great speakers for its price
Review: I spent months looking for an adequate 5.1 speaker set to go with my system without having to break the bank!!
I looked at the Logitech Z640 (boy that stuff sells like cheap dirt), I also looked at the inspire 5200, altec lancing and Monsoon 505-H. Well after listening to them all; the inspire 5200 caught my attention because of the quality of its sound reproduction and clean base. The monsoon could be turned up all the way with out loosing it quality but it did not sound as good as the inspire though it had good base and looked cool (depending on your taste). The Altec Lancing sounded great also; the Logitech had the worst sound quality (like cardboard paper was used to make its speakers). Its base was not bad though. I finally settled on the 6600 because it was 6.1 even though I was not going to buy an audigy 2 card, I figured that I will finally be able to squeeze everything out of my SB live 5.1 digital. I am not using the center rear speaker. The 5200 sounded great and since the 6600 is more modern, more powerful and cost approximately 20.00 more, I went with it. These speakers sound great.
It is quite loud 1/2 way up.
Games like UT2003, Jedi Knight 2 and NOLF2 sound great with 5.1 enabled.
I have not tested them with a DVD movie yet but the base from my VCDs sound excellent.
The base is not going to rock your house, but the speaker set will definitely bother your neighbors if turned up 70% of the way. ... If you don't want to break the bank and want to be sure you get the most resent technology from creative get these; you don't need the audigy 2 unless you are interested in 6.1 surround sound, 5.1 is what is supported the most today.

Summary: a good speaker with minor problem
Review: since the speaker is around [dollar amount] after rebate, it worth a try.
i don't have the same problem as the other reviewer
but have a major problem with 6.1 speaker
the extra speaker is rear center
if you are using a computer, that is the worst place to put a speaker. since you cannot walk without move that damn speaker
so i return this one and buy 5200 instead ...
the 6700 is older version compare to 6600
so does 5300(discontinue model) 6700 use the same speaker as 4400 which is a old model and with less power output(the center is the same as 6600's speaker)
they create 6700 because they recycle the 5700 and 5300's speaker to make the 6700(100% sure)...

Summary: Creative's best is maybe "average"
Review: Summary: 1. Good on distortion (THD)
2. BAD on NOISE
3. Good bass and treble
4. BAD frequency response at cross-over
5. Unnatural sound (because of 4 above) Details: Speakers with built-in amplifiers (also called self-powered amplifiers or just powered amplifiers) have a few important means of specifying performance -- distortion, signal-to-noise ratio, RMS power output. This one has 120W power output which is a plus. Most computer speakers have less. Distortion (which is different from noise) is the "chir" sound you hear with full sound volume. Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is distortion as percentage of actual music (signal). Now you know what 10% THD means -- as much 10% of sound is bad! Typically, full power is power cited for 10% THD (unless specified otherwise). With lower sound volume distortion reduces fast. Typically, if full power is enough, one does not use a system to it's full power -- that means distortion will be less than 10% (anything less than 0.5% is excellent). So these speakers are good on distortion unless you want to put them in a big hall and use them to their full power. Noise performance ("hissssss" you hear specially with sound has a low volume) is BAD. I returned the speakers because of that. My speakers I got with my PC have less noise. BASS is good. Bass is drum sound -- it is sound at low frequencies. Treble is good too -- it is sound at higher frequencies. Problem is that this is a good "gap" between the two. Sound at this gap is not reproduced properly. To be more precise, in order to fool people into believing that sound reproduction is good, these manufacturers over-boost bass and treble (and leave out middle band, the gap). That makes sound unnatural. Next I have bought Bose Mediamate speakers. They have better noise performance (though not perfect). Those TWO speakers have better sound than SIX speaker set from Creative Labs. And that's too when Mediamate is Bose's cheapest and Inspire 6.1 is Creative Labs's costliest (for computer speakers)! Also consider Polk Audio AMR130 speakers. They are the best I have found. Have best-in-class noise performance (90dB). Power specification is 40W RMS, more than enough for a room.
