If, like us, you've just bought a newfangled HD TV, you're probably unimpressed with the sound quality of the built in speakers and you'll be searching for replacements. You might go with an expensive surround sound system, but we couldn't because we don't have enough room. You might go with a soundbar, which is convenient but still overpriced. Or you might go with these speakers.We had some other speakers at home to try first. I donated my own PC speakers which are still a 2.1 setup but quite small, and the volume had to be turned up to get any bass out of them, and we quickly found that what bass there was was muddy and distorted. So we turned to the internet and found these speakers.I really can't praise them enough.You NEED these speakers. They've got that weird quality where they output a ton of bass even at low volume, so you can enjoy the full range of sound without breaking your windows and waking up the neighbours. It's that cinema-style bass as well, the kind where you can only just about hear it but it's enough gives a suggestion of a deep rumbling to add to the soundscape. I tried it with Blade Runner and I feel like it's as close as I'll ever get to watching that film at an actual cinema (unless they ever get around to showing it again).One thing to note however is that these are not small speakers. The first subwoofer we tried would fit inside our TV cabinet, but this woofer was easily twice the size of that one. The satellites aren't small either. Take note of the measurements and make sure you've got room for them. And then buy them. Because you should.It also comes with a little desktop remote that's useless when they're plugged into a TV because it simply won't reach. I was able to appropriate it and attach it to my own PC speakers where it is very useful.In conclusion, these are the best stereo speakers I've ever heard. They're leagues ahead of my PC's (decent) speakers, and far more sensibly priced than a soundbar. If you've got a big enough room, you're probably also looking for a surround sound system, and I can't speak for that. But if you're looking for a set of 2.1 speakers, this is that set, and it is a steal at ~£45.

You purchased this item on 15 Apr 2013. I bought it back then for £62.49.I have gone to uni, transported these back n forth from many rooms for many reasons, I even move my desk/room around a lot. This speaker set I own has gone through a lot! Drops, knocks, split drinks, etc.They still sort of work now. 1 small speaker has died and I have some damage to wires (caught between furniture) but the bass and remainder speaker still work fine. I am treating myself as I have a new desk and got a new job which means I'll be at my desk much more so want to have a new fresh start.It is loud, I don't ever have it at 100%, I have the Volume at about 80% and the bass 70% estimating on the subwoofer but as it is controlled by the spin gadget,that spin gadget is never at 100% either, maybe 70% if I want to boom out some music, and I am not a considerate neighbour during the day...plus I love rock music so a lot of bass and 'aggressive noise'.It's cheaper, which I had hoped for 6 years difference, good to see so many other positive reviews. I would wait to buy this in the price range of £40-60, but that being said, it is worth it considering my quick shop around most other speakers of 25-75 pounds doesn't seem to be as good as these stats wise. The 25-35 range tends to be very low wattage... I still want loud music! 35+ much better wattage but not as much or same as these and fewer stars and the design seem awkward... I don't know perhaps I am biased knowing that these speakers have really done me well. Why take a gamble on a set that is similar stat-wise when I know these do all that I need for PC speakers!There's a whole in the spin gadget to put music into, buy a double male audio lead and your friends can play music from their mp3s players/phones and I also put my electric drum set into it (I'm rubbish at drums so my neighbours do love me haha)

In a nutshell, these speakers are all round gold. Especially for the price!!!!!!!I'm no expert, just a general consumer - I find them powerful, dynamic in the range of sound and VERY powerful! As other reviews have said, the bass is phenomenal, I agree with them 100%. If anything, this is one of very few faults I find with the system... the bass simply massively out powers the satellite speakers. That said, if you're a bass-loving maniac on a budget, these bad boys are for you.Even though the bass is much more powerful than the satellite speakers, there is a twiddly knob thing to control the bass itself, this I find very helpful as once you've tuned it to suite your style of music/use (i use them to listen to the radio listen to dubstep,and are hooked up to my TV for an innovative/cheap soundbar alternative). The little volume dial doobry is awesome!**Key selling point**The volume turny thing - My speaker set is plugged very simply into the mains and into my TV. This works beautifully. They're perfectly in sync with the TV and provide a much needed volumetric boost.. BUT the key point being that, once an audio jack is plugged into the speaker set at the volume turney thing, the audio input to the speakers switched immediately from the TV to whatever it is you've just plugged in. I love it. So you can have them plugged into the TV and playing sound from there... then plug in your phone to play separate music and immediately swap! The TV continues un-disturbed except with to volume from anywhere, and the speakers are then-on playing from your phone/input device. Quick, easy, powerful alternative to an expensive (but potentially worth it... I wouldn't know) soundbar.Speakers for your bedroom, TV or kitchen/social area? Buy these. They full the house (3 stories) never mind the room.

Now editing my review after my purchase in may 2013 (after over 5 months).Still as happy as ever and would gladly recommend to friends. However the price has gone up since then, I bought them at £47.68 postage inc. The price increase is probably due to the high demand, because, well, they're so good. Anywhere around £55 is standard for these speakers I think I just got a good deal.Even at the current price £60 I would still say they are worth the money.So, as for my 5 month review. I have decided to edit my review because there has been a minor fault with the subwoofer that was down to knob that turns the bass up and down having a loose connection. This loose connection caused the subwoofer to emit a crackling noise when,and only when, you turned the bass up and down. After some angry wiggling it sorted itself out but this was covered by the warranty anyway so I am in the process of getting them replaced with Tribal UK who I would recommend highly.Aside from that slight issue which was most likely my fault, the only other minor issue I found while using them was that if you turn both the volume and the bass up to max, the bass does overcome the volume detracting from songs. But believe me when I tell you you wont be playing music at that volume in your house unless you intentionally want to both seriously annoy your neighbors and destroy your eardrums. Easy way to combat this is to just turn the bass down a little. It should be noted my subwoofer was on my desk, which I suspect may cause the bad results as oppose to the floor where it is meant to go.Being a casual music listener, I can highly recommend this speaker set. So far they have given me a great 5 months, and hopefully many more to come!

The sound from these speakers is magnificent, the bass can be as heavy as you want it and the volume the same I can't fault them al all, even the mids and highs are great, if you want a set of great quality Bluetooth speakers these are the ones for you they are brilliant. Then why only 4 stars I hear you ask, on sound quality they certainly deserve 5 stars. The reasons for only 4 stars are two:-1, The plug in points for the cables to link the small speakers and the volume and bass control are on the side of the main bass unit instead of the back, which means when I walk into the room I see the cables, plug in points and controls which slightly spoils the look of other wise very stylish speakers.This has one bonus means its easier to control volume and bass without having to reach to back of unit. A better solution would have been to put the connections and pairing controls at the back and the volume and bass control on the front of the unit.2, The remote control which is wired seems to need connecting to the base unit with two phono plugs (which is fine) but also seems to have to plug into my laptop with a jack plug, which somewhat defeats the Bluetooth, no wires. If that was also Bluetooth it doesn't pair no matter what I do. But irrespective of how I connect, either not plugging into laptop, or plugging into my laptop it doesn't work at all. All plugged in and turning the knob doesn't alter volume at all. As it happens I actually don't need it as I set the volume on the bass unit at a setting higher than I'le ever use and then adjust the volume on my laptop.Anyway the speakers are magnificent and am very happy with them but those are the two reasons I've marked them down 1 star

It arrived well packed and ready to transform the tinny audio on my otherwise fantastic 13.3 inch Lenovo Yoga Tab 2 into the awesome sound stage it deserves. I was immediately astounded by what I heard; the Trust Tytan is indeed worthy of that overused word, AWESOME!!! The treble and mids are present and clear, but the star of this show is undoubtedly the floorboard trembling bass. Ecstasy levels were achieved when I visited You Tube on my tablet and searched for a Dolby Sound demo video, which treated my fussy ears to the full potential of this very capable speaker system; my purchase was justified, emphatically so! I should mention that the Tytan looks great too,and is somewhat reminiscent of a more glamorous car boot bass boom box, but with the addition of the sidekick duo speakers. The Bluetooth connectivity is an essential feature for me, and I didn't notice any significant detriment to the sound when using it. That said, in between audio tracks, and in silent moments during movies, I can hear feedback which sounds like a far distant disco beat - and it's not my imagination, or, as I had originally suspected, my neighbours throwing a party in their basement. Perhaps I should deduct a star for that, but whilst irritating - I can't 'unhear' it - the overall performance is still very enjoyable. The feedback is not at all present during wired/aux connection. Anyway, well done to Trust for producing a product that buyers can indeed put their cash and trust(!) in. Highly recommended - despite the unwelcome and quite bewildering very distant disco beat! 'At first I was afraid, I was petrified...' OK, Gloria, I will go now.

I love these speakers. They are loud, don't take up toooo much room and the bass in excellent. The only downside is that you can't buy spare parts for it. The good news is that I emailed the company and they sent me out a replacement audio jack thingy for free, which is excellent service, but finding their contact details online and trying to find the right speaker is pretty hard and long winded. So you have to work for it. I would much rather simply be able to purchase replacement leads and cables on-line myself but since they post the items out free I shouldn't complain, it is excellent service after all.All in all, I am very happy with this product and have recommended it to all my friends and family.If you are looking for a set of speakers for your laptop/ desktop that goes loud and has a very decent, adjustable, bass, then this is the item for you. Since you can turn the bass right down you can play relatively loud music without disturbing your neighbours. And if you next door neighbour is having a psychotic break and chanting on the balcony again you can turn the volume and bass way up and play the song that goes " They're coming to take you away, ha ha, they're coming to take you away, to the funny farm...". And yes, I am cruel. But I did try explaining that Satan has better things to do than possess him for 5 years, he is very busy destroying the world and what makes him so special the devil would pick him of all people! And I asked why chant gibberish on the balcony because Satan would be pretty useless if he wasn't bi-lingual and therefore speaking in English would work just as well.

I got these via an Amazon instant deal, having considered various other powered speakers. The idea was to replace a pair from Kenwood - wow, bought over twenty years ago - that are still working fine but don't do much bass, and use them to do sound for the TV / Raspberry Pi media centre.I did wonder why these are in the computer section, rather than in the musical instruments / electronics ones like most others. I now know: it's because the wired remote volume control is basically a variable resistor in between a 3.5mm audio jack (for your PC / laptop / tablet / mp3 player's headphone or aux out socket) and a pair of phono jacks (for this). If you want to connect something phono-phono,you either have to have an adaptor or do without the remote. I've done the latter.It's only at this point that having the sockets and controls on the side of the sub-woofer, rather than at the back, makes sense. Fortunately, they do include knobs to adjust the general volume and bass.Good: They sound ok for both musical and explosion-filled soundtracks. If you want to simulate an earthquake, the sub-woofer will do it. The amplifier is in that, so there's less issue with overheating seen in some 2.0 speakers (have a look at the reviews for the Mackie ones...)Not so good: I doubt they're going to last twenty plus years - the L/R pair are distinctly light - and the sub-woofer isn't exactly easy to place given its size (it's basically a cube) and the necessity to have easy access to it. The leads to both L/R could be longer and aren't replaceable.

Really impressed with these, especially as they were quite a reasonable price. I tend to use them for watching big old blockbusters, and the sound is great - the sub-woofer really pulls out the bass and throws it in your face. But the treble is strong enough to keep the balance.I hooked up my phone to them as well, to see how music sounded and it's amazing. Something bass-heavy just sounds epic through them! It's good that you can control the level of bass too - not because it distorts - it seems clear whatever level - but because it was so rumblingly awesome, I was worried it might annoy the neighbours! Even at a lower level, the bass really compliments whatever you're using them for - be it music or a film,or even gaming, which I tried and thoroughly enjoyed, as it brought out the SFX as well as the music in a really nicely balanced way. I have them set up so the sub-woofer sits behind the TV (the TV being on a stand so there's a gap for the sound to come through) and the other speakers are on the shelf below the TV on either side. It's a great addition to my geeky TV and consoles area, and serves to successfully annoy my wife when she's already vexed at me monopolising the TV for something losery as she would say. She's a lucky gal.

I needed an audio system to enhance the sound of my Sony Bravia 40" LCD TV in a 20' X 18' room. (In modern TV'S the small speakers mounted at the bottom of the narrow screen surround, directed downwards, usually give very poor sound quality.) This Trust Titan system has 60w RMS of power, 120w peak, featuring a hefty wooden bass woofer with 8" speaker and 2 shiny black satellite speakers with 3" mids & 1" tweeters. The bass speaker/amplifier sits directly behind the TV which is on a corner unit with the L & R satellites at each side. I connected the system directly to the headphone audio out on the TV, leaving aside the wired Volume control. Then I was able to adjust my TV settings; the audio out to 'audio system'and adjusting the TV speaker settings so that my TV remote control now controls the Volume. I can also use the controls for overall Volume and Bass on the bass speaker/amplifier. For general TV viewing, adding too much bass will muddy the sound. I have it set at a point where I now have a full rich sound with crisp highs and punchy warm bass with massive headroom -I'm using less than a quarter of the available volume. Absolutely brilliant and superb value.

Planned to give max 3*, as twitters are CUT OUT of this set. I had total 3 'exactly' the same sets over the years from exactly the 'same' company and manufacturer. It turns out, over the years, on 3rd set, twitter's are NON existent, which at very beginning annoyed me very much and wanted to return it. However. The price is the lowest for this class of 2.1 speakers TRUST. Just a pity and regret not keeping the 2nd set, where there were 2 physical speakers membranes in each of small satellites, with BEAUTIFUL twitters (for that price). Now all mid and highs are going on one NON twitter membrane, naturally cutting twitters to near non existent. So to hear twitters and highs, equaliser in use.Overall the cheapest set in market for that price from 'good' TRUST company. Great bass, and massive power to price. 1st set the volume knob went on the unit, probably killed by me, by using it at above max levels of volume, promptly replaced. 2nd set after more than a year was still working fine (equally tormented with above max volume powers) :) One of the best items in my purchase lot.

I bought the Trust Tytan 2.1 speaker set to improve the sound quality of a flat screen TV I have in the bedroom. It runs off the headphone socket on the TV and the resultant sound quality is fantastic. The bass unit is quite large for a PC speaker system and I think this makes the difference. It was of prime importance to me to have a system where the audio settings remain even when the system switched off at the power point, which is why I was replacing the previous system I used. I cannot comment on reliability as it has not yet had a lot of use, but other Trust equipment I've had has been perfectly reliable, so I live in hope.Speakers apparently need "running in" for a few hours in order to get the best response,and my son very kindly did this by blasting everyone with Iron Maiden. He then balanced the bass against the other frequencies to give the best overall effect. I spent a lot of time researching the available 2.0 and 2.1 systems, and this one struck me as potentially the best (without going to silly money). So far, I am delighted with my choice.

I was replacing my last speakers which were 2.1 speakers and had great bass and sounded brilliant, my expectations were high and I'm pleased to say I wasn't dissapointed.Although I have to say I used to have a guitar amp which when about half way up blew the bl@@dy doors off my room and would have my parents (when I was a wee boy) running upstairs to tell me to turn it down, neighbours would complain and it was flumpin LOUD. That was a 100W amp. So having speakers which are meant to be 120W then I assumed this would also be ear shatteringly loud - they aren't . They're great for listening to music around the house, they happily take what I term "sing a long at the top of your voice" volume,but no more. They wouldn't work well as a party speakers if you took them to a large room.At high volumes the small treble speakers vibrate a little with bass.But I mention these points only as justification for not giving them 5/5. I would happily buy these again, for the price, my research couldn't find anything better which was less than £120.Would recommend .

We bought these speakers for our teenage daughter to play her Ipod through. The price put them in the "they'll do" bracket in our heads ie not the best on the market and not the worse.Both my partner and I were completely blown away by the quality of this product especially at such a reasonable price (my partner, he is one of those speaker lover types). Obviously we had to test them (like two big kids) to see what the bass was like and whether we would have to advise the neighbours to wear ear buds on Christmas day. We may have "tested" them for a little longer than was completely necessary as they are ace!We managed to nearly vibrate our German Shepherd out of the room whilst "testing" them to the Prodigy.We highly recommend this product and are now wondering whether we should just buy her an ipod docking station and keep these for ourselves! OK OK she'll get them. PS she came home yesterday with a friends 'Beats' speakers . . ha ha ha these blew them out of the water(she is still wondering why we were laughing . . time will tell little one!)

Bought these to use with a computer in a conference room. They are quite light in weight and a bit plasticky but the sound quality is remarkably good. I have found that for some content we have had to use them at full volume as they are not amazingly loud - nothing like the 120 watts or whatever is claimed. But even at full volume and a reasonably high base setting the sound clarity was first class. Speech was particularly clear, I use it for a society that has a number of members with poor hearing and they were very complimentary. As others have commented the supplied cables are very short and I had to purchase some extensions, which were very cheap.I suppose they would be ok if one were just using the speakers arranged around a PC.If you want "loud" speakers I would look elsewhere but I wanted clarity and lack of distortion, particularly with speech and these certainly deliver that. So overall happy. The only reason I dropped one star is that there is no way they have the power they claim
