sound blaster x

Hi, Currently using a Sound Blaster Z & AE Aego M's, which have finally given out after around 8 years). I'm looking at just a decent set of 2.1's & the Kratos S5 seem to get good reviews. I've done some research and see that a lot of speakers now have USB & their own Sound Card - sounds cool...

Recently purchased a set of these speakers off eBay, knowing they were faulty but not sure to what extent. Seller said he couldn't connect to his PC but it did have the USB cable, so figured it might just be a driver issue.... it was not. I plugged the speakers in to my PC and Win10 installed...
