We've been living with this 2.1 system for a while, and we're still enamored with it. The bass is lively and vibrant, thanks to the wooden sub, but never overpowering.

Real headbangers might find the bass a bit muted in the mid-range but it can be cranked right up without distortion, and the Roths sounded great in all our tests. Their relatively modest output makes them more suited to smaller rooms, though...
