Pros: Energetic sound, modern and appealing design Cons: I find the puck volume control to be useless
I must confess, I'm a computer enthusiast. Since I just switched over from AOL dialup to Comcast broadband, quality speakers are more important to me now than ever. The speakers that came built-in with my laptop are adequate for listening ...
Pros: Absolutely stunning sound and performance. Cons: Volume control a bit tricky at times. Sweet spot.
Three years ago, I had some of the worst speakers on the planet. They were these little white speakers that were manufactured by a brand called "Optimus". They sounded like the music was from some far off planet, and the quality was horrible.

Pros: Clear sound, great price Cons: Sub isn't as spectacular as satellites
My existing computer speakers were really beginning to flake out so I upgraded to the Monsoon MM-700's. I had been eyeing these for about half a year now, and was pleased to see they now have a manufacturer's rebate.
My aging Bose speakers were starting to have problems and the cost of repair was half the cost of replacing them so I decided to just replace them. Unfortunately, I don't have the room for a 4 satellite system so I decided I needed to go with another 2...
Pros: Super sound, super sexy Cons: Beauty has it's price
Magneplanar. It just sounds sexy, doesn't it?
The Monsoon speaker line is all about sex and sound. They grab your attention visually and accurately reproduce the sound stage beautifully. These speakers are made for the purist who demands...
Pros: Sound Quality, Look, Built Quality and PRICE!! Cons: Directional sound, cheap "puck" controller, fixed stand, Monsoon no longer in PC speaker business
Monsoon PC speakers have all been discontinued. However, I have long been aware of its unique and effective flat panel design and wanting to try one out. So when I saw a local PC store selling refurbished MM-700s for $59 Canadian (~$45 US) and PM-9s ...
Pros: Excellent sound and good looks at a good price. Cons: None of any note.
I’ll admit that the purchase of these was really more of an impulse buy than a premeditated acquisition. In the past, I had read several rave reviews, but had not given them much thought. I had a few gift certificates to spend, and these caught my eye....
Pros: good sound quality, flat panel cool factor Cons: expensive, no advanced sound technology
Overview:
Monsoon is an experienced manufacturer of flat panel speakers such as the one used in automobiles. One notable automobile Monsoon makes speakers for is the Hummer (seen in the movie, The Rock). Monsoon is trying to enter the...
Pros: They look cool. Cons: Un-balanced frequency response, bad spike in the midrange and upper frequencies, while clear - music sounds metalic and thin on them.
I have read a number of opinions on the MM-1000 and MM-700 Monsoon speakers. For the most part, the reviews have been positive (ranging from "these speakers are very good" to "these are the best speakers you can buy for your PC"....
Pros: Amazing bass, clarity, size, looks, price Cons: I had trouble installing, but once you know how, it's easy
I bought these speakers with my new imac because of a recommendation by a salesperson and because I listened to them in the store. These speakers were really amazing and blew everything else in the store out of the water.
Pros: Good volume and clarity of sound, compact size, sleek look, easy setup Cons: No surround, no digital, no Dolby
If you're looking for a simple set of high-end PC speakers, then the Monsoon MM-700s may be just your ticket. With the degree of interest companies are placing in PC speakers these days, there are many options out there. For those of us who are audio...
Pros: Unbeatable sound, sleek, Cons: Directional, pricey, no digital
If you're looking for hi quality speakers, these are as about the best they come by. Granted it's no 5.1 dolby digital surround system, but for 2-speakers, there's nothing else better (other than the MM-1000).
Pros: Great build quality, good bass output, sweet sound. Cons: Directional sound, must be in sweet spot
Bought the speakers from CompUSA after spending several days comparing / listening to various brands. I had narrowed down my choice between $100 + Boston Accoustics, Altec Lansing and these units. They are somewhat directional in sound (i.e. you want...
