Pros: Strong bottom end. Not high and shrieky like others in the same price range
Cons: Bottom end over-bearing. Crossover point poor. Imaging? NO.
Hey the bang for your buck ratio is great for these. I got them years ago for $500. I've been using them to replace the little tin box in my TV for years. The satellite surrounds are ignored/not installed for me most of the time as I just don't watch much surround sound. Otherwise a great little set. Would really rock on a PC I suppose if you set it up with 5.1 games. I'll have to try it one day.
 
This system will not replace anything close to a dedicated listening stereo. But a general noise maker? It fits the bill fine.

No Imaging? You must have wired them wrong, or your source is buggy. These things image like crazy!  I have them on my desk, in stereo mode.  There are better speakers, for more money, but these punch way above their weight class/price point.  Their sins are of omission.  Dial the woofer back and take the time to properly place and wire in phase and you'll be really happy with these.

Sorry. I've heard imaging and this ain't it. Maybe I'm picky. I'm the type of guy that believes in component upgrades. I've moved from the objective to the subjective because I've heard the difference in changing out interconnects. Hell, I've heard the difference changing out power cables in some circuits. The fact of the matter is this system is good. Damn good for the money.
 
I just want to point out that there is a wider world out there.
