No stop tempting me!

One question though, albeit a nooby question. They say that they have these inputs...
3 x RCA Phono - Line level
1 x Stereo Mini jack - Line level
What would you want 3 for? ... I know they exist but would have thought it would have just needed two, left and right.
What I want to use them for is to either play music from my personal MP3 player, or my pc.
Hmm, actually that'd probably be a pain as I'd have to plug in my headphones everytime I want to use them. I guess I still do need to be looking at getting one of those Creative Decoders (many inputs and many outputs).
edit: Nope, scrap that plan. Creatives 2.1 speakers can probably do what I want

'The package gives room-filling sound from devices like the iPod™, PSP™ or MP3 mobile phones'

These are the best 2.1's you can get, short of a stereo amp+bookshelf speakers tbh. Couple of months back and I would have bought them, but I'm after a 5.1 solution for my 360 now. Wish AE did some affordable 5.1 setups :/

As iI said before I got the earliar versions. Verrrry nice
Got them today - very nice. Perhaps not as impressive as I thought they might be, but they certainly do sound very good and I think I just need to play around with them a bit more. The bass is awesome. The monitors are a lot heavier than I expected - very well made.

are they loud. have you cranked them up yet? how do they handle
Soldato
I've had a set since December and I listen to 320kbps mp3's and they
sound excellent to me.
The good thing about them is that even with the computers volume set
to 50%, the volume knob on the speakers only needs to be about a 1/8th
to 1/4 of a turn from power on to be LOUD

Great speakers, I have the previous model and they're excellent. Went from a 5.1 setup to these due to a lack of space.

I bought these a few weeks ago, as my denon amp blew so i was in a shop looking to buy a new amp and this bloke talked me into getting these and all i can say is they are great i paid £100 and feel that these deserve a price tag of £200/250.
This week only deal go for it.
edit: one thing to add, you dont get the wall brackets for the two small speakers which is a shame.
