Super happy with these as computer speakers using a little 2.0 amp. Build quality and sound are excellent at this price point. They feel and sound more expensive than they are.

Had some JVC bookshelf speakers for more than ten years, they sounded really muddy , needed an upgrade , watched some YouTube reviews, and cheapaudioman gave the P3's a thumbs up , they were in my price range , the most I wanted to spend , I have an old Technics reciever which I run bluetooth thru via my smartphone. I didn't know what I was missing, the sound from these speakers are amazing. A great start to an upgrade for sure! I ordered a Fosi amp , curious if this will upgrade these speakers too ?

This is the second pair I purchased of these speakers. I previously used them as my surround speakers and purchased this second set to use them as height speakers for the atmos effect. They have added a whole new audio experience to my surround setup. Aside from that, they work very nicely in small to medium-sized rooms or on desktops.

I have these setup with a Fosi Audio V3 amp and a S.M.S.L. SU-1 DAC.Pretty solid set of speakers. They aren't something you'd want to fill a big room with or to use for your main theater setup. They are amazing, however, for near field setups. I have mine at my desktop and they sound amazing in that regard. How I review it will be based from a near field perspective. ie: Desktops, small/standard bedrooms, maybe small apartment living area.They're lacking just a tiny bit in the highs but are by no means bad, hence the 4 stars. I'd still consider the highs to be good. The mids shine the most and the lows are pretty good for these types of speakers. The clarity is there. If you are sensitive to highs or maybe prefer male vocals/clean bass/etc then these may be perfect for you. The bass is very clean and crisp without sounding boomy or muddy. If you aren't bass crazy then there may be enough of it that you might not need a sub. If you are thinking about getting speakers but are unsure if you should get a dedicated subwoofer, then maybe try these out. Just to reiterate, these have above average bass compared to many speakers in this price range and form factor but they are no replacement for an actual dedicated subwoofer.They're also relatively small form factor. Most comparable speakers are much larger. My desk has an upper shelf and the main desk area is loaded with my peripherals. I needed these to fit on my top shelf and they fit perfectly. Larger speakers would have cut it too close.

Bought a pair while on sale for an office 2.1 set up. Very happy with the purchase and the sound. Treble is detailed without being overly harsh. Bass is noticeable and surprising for such a small speaker. I have an 8 inch subwoofer to handle the lows. If the speakers are close to a wall or you find the bass to be "boomy", just plug the bass ports in the back with a sock or tissue. After plugging the bass ports, the sound cleared up and has been beautiful. The mid range cleared up and the sound has been beautiful. I have my speakers set up with the tweeter about the woofer. Making sure the tweeters are ear level are important for the sound. You may need to buy speaker stand to get your speakers at the right level, something to keep in mind. Overall, I am very happy with these speakers and wholeheartedly recommend them for a small space or someone's first set of speakers.
