DELL SOUNDBAR
BUY THIS SOUNDBAR IF YOU NEED TO HAVE SOME EXTRA DESK SPACE AND MUSIC QUALITY IS NOT HIGH ON YOUR LIST AND YOU HAVE THE TYPE OF MONITOR THE SOUNDBAR WILL FIT ON!!
PROS: I GOT THE SOUNDBAR AND THE FACTORY SPEAKERS HOOKED UP AND WORKING TOGETHER BY PURCHASING AN ADAPTER AND I AM WAITING FOR THE NEIGHBORS TO START COMPLAINING ABOUT THE MUCH MUCH LOUDER MUSIC COMING FROM THESE SPEAKERS!!! THE SOUNDBAR NEEDS SOME MORE BASS BU
CONS: THE GRAY COLORING OF THE SOUNDBAR, BUT I AM HAVING IDEAS ABOUT MAKING IT MORE APPEALING TO MY EYES!!! ALSO THE NEED FOR MORE BASS IS SOMETHING ELSE THAT PEEVES ME.

AS501PA Sound Bar
Very well designed. Very good looking.
PROS: This is an excellent product for the money. If you use your computer for anything other than a stereo system, this will produce very good sound. It also looks really cool on your computer!
CONS: If you are looking for a speaker system to blast music,this is not for you. But, to listen to normal volume ie: vidio clips/movies, This is good.

Takes up little space with little bass
PROS: It's small and fits right under the monitor
It doesn't take additional space off my desk top
Blue light reminds you if you left it on
CONS: poor bass quality, can't crank up the volume
need to buy a subwoofer to up the bass and then I have another thing to take up space on my desk, also more wires
falls off sometimes when trying to adjust monitor

Good Speaker
PROS: saves desk space, dont have to worry about knocking them down easily attachable and great sound.
CONS: the only thing that i found was if you have dual monitors you need to get a splitter since both speakers plug in to the same sound card jack.

Fills the Need
Overall, the sound bar provides what I was looking for--decent quality sound without the need for desktop speakers at a good price. I use it both in the office and at home.
PROS: Saves space by attaching to the monitor; powered from monitor, thus no need to have yet another power cord; volume control convenient, yet obscure.
CONS: If you desire stereo sound, this won't get it; blue power light is a minor annoyance.

Easy to use, poor sound quality
If I didn't listen to music or movies on my computer, this would be a good buy. It snaps onto the monitor and saves desk space. But the sound is poor, and there is no way to attach additional speakers or a sub-woofer. I never would have bought this h
PROS: It was a snap (pardon the pun) to install.
CONS: Poor sound quality. High price for the quality of sound. No way to hook up additional speakers.
