Pros: Awesome sound! Great price, Great value, Can't get much better than this Cons: Rear tripod stand/speakers get knocked over easily, can be solved by attaching speakers to a wall or similar.
Review: CSW FPS2000 Digital Speakers
------------------------------------
After being dissappointed in the Monsoon speakers which I had purchased, I returned them and purchased the Cambridge Soundworks speakers in its place. I have a...
I liken PC sound to an optional extra in your car.
Sure, your car will function without it but think about how much more pleasureable your journey would be if you had it?
It is the same with sound. Sure your pc will work fine without it (most...
At $150, the FPS2000 is cheaper than a number of 2 speaker sets, and I can tell you that they are truly awesome. They definitely are an evolutionary jump in 4 speaker computer systems.
Pros: Surround sound great, PC audio reproduction good, easy setup Cons: Muddled midrange, CD audio not-so-good, can't do high volumes.
One of the dilemmas of buying new hardware, such as a sound card, is buying more hardware to support that new add-on. I did my research when it came time to retire my Sony 3-piece speaker system, and selected the PCWorks setup from Cambridge. I'm a...
Pros: Excellent surround sound, good quality, great tech support Cons: Bass issues; this is however probably just my particular set
Way back in August '99, I was yearning to buy a new computer. Our house has three computer already: the "family" Aptiva (see my Aptiva review), my dad's gutted Gateway, and my mom's laptop. Unfortunately, all of the afforementioned computers...
Pros: EXCELLENT sound quality, Features, Digital DIN input, Price, Clarity, Loudness Cons: No headphone jack onboard
After finally owning my very own computer (got for college), I decided on getting some decent speakers, instead of using the bassless speakers that came with my PC. I went to my local Best Buy and browsed the speaker lineup, and looking at the box of...
Pros: Power sound from 4 speakers, rich bass, great when using digital output Cons: Tricky setup to get all four speakers, adequate analog sound control, no headphone jack
It all started like this, I am a cheapskate and will refuse to pay name brand for anything on a computer, much less for any sound card or speaker system. So needless to say I picked up some no-name speakers and sound card to go with my AMD K6-2/500 Mhz...
Pros: Control Knob, Sleek Design, "Okay sound", Cons: Average Subwoofer,Hissing at High Volumes, Short Speaker Stands
*NOTE* I bought this two months after it came out and have been using
them for quite some time.
Introduction:
It all started one day, while playing a couple mp3's with my old
bookshelf speakers. "This isn't cutting it, my...
Pros: Good Treble, Decent Bass. Aesthetics a plus. Durability unparalleled. Cons: Midrange lacking. Speaker tripods flimsy. No headphone jack.
I purchased my computer with Boston Acoustice Micromedia 2.1 system. It was in fact a very nice system and indicative of BA's standards of quality, but I was ready to move on to 4.1 surround. I saw the fps2000 Digital at my local computer show for 115$...
Pros: Very high quality output sound at both low and high volumes. Cons: Hard setup, rear speaker posts are on the short side.

4.1 surround speaker.
I never thought it would make such difference.
Before buying this FPS 2000 Digital, I had benwin 2000 speakers. For some reason I got a lot of distortion from benwin, so I decided to get myself a new speaker. A lot of my...
Pros: Good Sound Cons: Extra expense of a SB Live card for the total experience
I purchased this sound system for about $150, it was a nice upgrade from my Labtecs. I also purchased a Sound Blaster Live card since it is recommended for digital output. Many websites say that they are hard to install and come with a lot of parts, in...
For under $150.00 these digital speakers are the best bang for the buck. These Creative speakers are made by Cambridge Soundworks, one of the best pc speakers out there. These speakers come with 4 identical speakers. The speakers are 7watts each, but the...
Pros: Inexpensive, excellent sound Cons: Cheap tripods and connectors, bad bass adjust knob location
Most speakers are adequate for games, these sound excellent with music, too.
I spend alot of time in audio stores and in the electronics sections of large department stores playing with all the new gadgets. I've become familiar with how...
Pros: Great sound, easy installation, separate volume control, nice price. Cons: No Digital to Mini-Jack wire.

Pros: Near-perfect audio reproduction. Small size, yet sounds better than a system 5 times its price. Cons: Speaker stands can fall over. Assembly required.
Oh. My. God. These 3 words describe the way I feel about these Cambridge SoundWorks speakers. Picking up the large box at the store, I couldn't stop smiling. I new that when I plugged these babies in, I would be able to brag to everyone. After paying the...

I originally purchased this sound system because the single speaker on my 60mhz Mac really wasn't cutting it… and I knew that I would be able to hook up the speakers to the line-out on my CD player. I had no idea what I had bought. Some people go out and...
I was introduced to these Cambridge speakers through the purchase of blasterpc. Cambridge is a reliable brand and I bet those who know Hi-fi will surely hear of this brand. Sadly, the founder of Cambridge soundworks, Henry Kloss depart this world few...
Just recently I got a new computer that can handle games like Unreal Tournament and Half-Life and my old ISA sound card just wasn't cutting it any more. After I bought my new Sound Blaster X-Gamer Live! I was still disappointed when I didn't see...

Pros: Small but awsome sound! Cons: Volume control would be better if it was wireless.
I work for a computer retail store as a Technician. Sometimes we have people come in and wants us to custom build a computer with all the latest and greatest things. Of course when they want the best computer they have to have some speakers to match the...
Pros: great price, great sound Cons: slightly distorted at high volumes
Back when I first got my computer I started downloading music off the internet. The speakers that it came with were not that good at all. I also play a lot of games and really like to hear good sound while playing them.
Pros: Excellent quality, cheap, versatile, little knobbie thing Cons: Bass control on sub (on floor)
Well first off I want to start this off by saying that I dont own this system. Nope. I was duped on buy.com that I WAS buying this speaker set, but in fact I ordered the 2 sattelite (little speakers) set. Oh well.

Pros: Excellent rich sound for gaming and audio! Cons: Setup can take a while
I do a great deal of computer gaming on my PC, and wanted a four-point speaker setup for a true surround sound effect. These speakers fit the bill exactly, with the added bonus that they also can play clear and crisp audio MP3s and CD music - something...
Pros: Along with the Sound Blaster Live (not the Live Value), the sound is almost comparable with Bose. Hook up is easy. The satellites are small and sound good. Cons: The satellites could have a fuller sound.
Sounds mean everything to me. If it doesn't have good sound than it is not worth listening to. After a few days of listening to my music with this set, I purchased the FPS2500 Digital 5.1 for my home theater system. I purchased a set for my parents and...
Pros: Great Sound Quality Cons: Cumbersome Cables & Perilous Power Supply!
Before I begin my rant, I'll happily admit that these speakers sound great! And the price right now is probably quite nice. But, there's always that but, eh?
I bought these speakers a while back, in the Fall of '99. They sounded great. I...
Pros: The best sounding computer speakers I have ever heard. Cons: Back speaker stands fall over, but I've since removed them. That's the only con!
I bought these about two years ago and still I cannot believe how well they sound for computer speakers. I have these daily at 3/4" their maximum volume, which is quite high to say the least! I never experience any distortion (except when playing CDs, at...
Pros: Awesome clarity, really good bass. Cons: Surround sound not as noticable as expected, beware of damage to your ears!

I bought these speakers because of cnet's review of the speakers, and I was not disappointed. They rock. There clear sound and strong base are just some of the selling points. The fact that they are digital also helps in there performance. When you...
