It was giving me problems. Also I got spoiled by having a SBLive (which died). Much better sound.

I've used a pair of these for about the last 10 years. I bought them for £6 in a corner shop when I had no space for larger speakers, not much money, and I'd given up bothering about sound quality. Little rubber-mounted aluminium cones, and for the price of a couple of drinks in a pub they're just amazingly good. Could I do better? Of course - but probably for 5-10 times the price.

OK, that's nice, but I FOUND my speakers in the LAUNDRY ROOM and they SOUND AWFUL.

Also works in xp I accidentally discovered. Sound in game is awful compared to the xonar.
