Personally I've never had cause to crank the knob more than halfway, these things can get pretty damn loud.

Thanks. My keyboard has volume on it too and it tends to take over, so I have the knob turned up a bit less than half and adjust it on my keyboard until it's loud enough.
I must say, I was very worried I wouldn't like them (especially for not ever hearing them) and I was also worried about lack of bass. My worries are pretty much gone, depending on the CD and if it's mixed/ripped/produced right, there is
plenty of bass and these things just sound awesome. It took a few songs to get used to 2.1 again, but now I love them.
I'll take some pictures of how I have them on my desk to make sure they're placed optimally and such. I think I have them set decently because if I get up I can hear a big difference in quality, but when I sit they sound perfect. Right about ear level.
Anyway, thanks for the recommendations guys, all last night I was really hoping I wouldn't have to send them back because I didn't like them, but they are really something else. The amount of bass they have by themselves is pretty crazy and the actual quality is MUCH better than my Z-560s. I don't know if it's because of the bloated bass I was used to or the speakers themselves, but everything just sounds great, even with my crappy glitchy Audigy2.
EDIT: Here is a very crappy picture.
