Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy the latest 5.1-channel encoded DVD soundtracks with the Dual LHT1000B home theater speaker system, which includes all the speakers you need to create a complete surround setup. Comprising four satellite speakers, a dedicated center channel speaker for dialogue, and a subwoofer to round out the bass profile, the system is an affordable option for movie fans who want to enjoy the splendor of full surround sound without spending thousands of dollars. Each satellite speaker includes a 2.5-inch midrange driver and a 0.5-inch piezoelectric tweeter to clarify the mids and highs. The center speaker, meanwhile, offers dual 3-inch midrange drivers in addition to its 0.5-inch tweeter, ensuring that dialogue--the most important element in a movie soundtrack--always sounds crisp, warm, and intelligible. Completing the system is the 50-watt powered subwoofer, which boasts a 6-inch long-throw, down-firing woofer to enhance the bass response. The subwoofer also offers a forward-firing port-tuned enclosure that adds to the low-frequency efficiency. The overall frequency response isn't as wide as those of more expensive systems, but it still offers a nice range of 50 Hz to 20 kHz. Additional features unique to the subwoofer include two RCA low-level inputs for older systems and a variable gain control. The entire system wears a black finish that matches similarly hued components and equipment. Listeners will also appreciate the center speaker's magnetic shielding, which protects the TV from video interference when the speaker is located nearby. The center speaker even comes with a stand to hold it durably in place, while the satellites are wall-mountable using the small keyhole inserts on the back. What's in the Box
Four satellite speakers, center channel speaker, subwoofer, center speaker stand, user's manual.

 I don't know October 27, 2007

I bought those speakers because my idea was to plug my iPod directly in the speakers.
But I think that was my fault, I didn't read (and I didn't know it) that it doesn't have internal amplifier, so doesn't work when I plug my iPod (your my computer) directly in the speakers.
It needs a amplifier to work, like a receiver etc etc.
So I don't know the quality, because I didn't use yet. I need to buy a amplifier.

Not wanting to be without surround where ever I went, I wanted to get a system for my mother's house. Small size was very important so my options were limmited. I saw this system for $40 and thought it would be worth a try.
I was rather surprised by the bulk and solid construction of the satelites. I was expecting a plasticy glued together feel, but was quite pleased just upon opening the box. The satelites are about the size of the small version Bose satelite speakers, so the size was right. The sub was shockingly small being a little bigger than a shoebox (it looked bigger to me in the picture).
Testing them out in my established spots for my current setup, I tried music (I Ching Symphony) followed by a movie (Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers). With the music, the sound was surprisingly spacious; however perhaps a bit airy and bright. The high ranged music flowed nicely considering the price of the setup.
The DVD was another stoy. In the DTS cut of LoTR, the sub all but begged for mercy. In the opening scene with Gandolf and the Balrog, the sub reminded me somewhat of the sounds you hear from an overzealous 16 year old kid's car. In short, farty and shaky.
After some consideration, I decided to check the receiver settings. I noticed that the crossover was set to 100 hz. With the satelites bottoming at 120 hz, this is a problem. After bumping it up to 150 hz, I decided to try Star Wars Episode 1. The difference was huge. The roaring of the engines in the pod racer scene was rather exceptional. Noticing that this was a Dolby Digital edit, I decided to go back and try some DTS. Going back and forth between sound edits on several discs, I came to the conclusion that this system doesn't get along with DTS. The encoding of the LFE (subwoofer channel) in DTS is just too low for the sub in this system. Dolby Digital had little or no trouble.
Overall, this is a hefty bang for the buck. The satelites/center are worth the price of admission. The sub is perhaps the weak link but it does the job. Considering the satelites connect directly to the receiver and all the money left over, a burlier sub could easily be substituted to create very respectable setup. The system as is would be worth at least 3 times as much as what Amazon offers it for. Considering the price, 5 stars is definitely not a stretch.
Tested with:
Pioneer VSX-D411 Receiver
Pioneer DV-578A DVD player
Room Size: Approximately 10'X 14'

Easy setup, good sound. Well worth the price. The subwoofer is not the most powerful but does the job.
