This is a really bad acoustic system

I would rate it 0 stars if I could. This is a  really bad acoustic system. I was at the parking lot outside of  bestbuy and my phone was dead. This guy came to me in a white van and offers me this "2799" speaker system. BIGGEST SCAM EVER.

This is a pretty bad setup. I don't know where to start, but first off it is no subwoofer. There is no crossover anywhere so they expect it to be hooked up to a dedicated amp. There is also only one speaker, even though they show 2 in the picture. The installation was terrible. I have other Pyle inwalls and thought they were fine, sound was OK, install was as it should be. The clips on these mounts are all wrong. You cannot blind install like you are suppose to because the clips just spin when you try to tighten them (the slots let the clips go up too far). I ended up turning the clips backwards to make them shorter and managed to make them work. The screws are terrible, soft and will strip the head out very easy. They are as cheap as any I have ever seen. The sound is not very good either. I had a an old seperate sub that was part of a kit that I wanted to get rid of to make room but it sounds much better than the Pyles, I have just decided I have to live with the size of the old sub. Now I have a hole in the wall with a $30 cover.

I should have been weary of SoundBlaster as they haven't done much decent hardware for the past 15+ years, but the price was right and I figured what the hell, I can always return them. Fast forward two months and I keep getting a slight noise in my right ear fading in and out, a barely detectable high pitch tone fading in and out and in and out. Just loud enough to drive you mad if you don't happen to have a game or music to distract you. I went to return them and like all receipts it vanished into the ether. I contacted Creative support and sure enough they wouldnt even talk to me without a proof of purchase despite registering my headphones when I bought them. Now the slight ringing has turned into a full blown buzzing and I have to constantly tap my right earpiece in just the right way in order to get it to work. I'm sure its a loose connection or something but the problem has gotten consistently worse with time. On top of that I have to keep repairing it to my computer because it will freak out and disconnect and connect over and over and over until I just shut it off. Despite what the SB software tells me that my headset is 100% charged, if I leave them plugged in for a few hours the connection issue goes away. Its not a distance problem either since I'm only about 3 feet away from my computer. Speaking of distance the range on these isn't great either. I cant walk into the next room without it blaring horrendous beeps at me telling me I'm too far away and regardless of what the volume level is the warning beeps seem to be at full volume. In short, don't buy these, spend the extra cash and get something better. Far far better.

The pre-amps on this machine are incredibly noisy and vocals sound terrible and scratchy (even with expensive Mics).  If your serious about recording music do not bother with this product, save a little more money and pay the difference.  Steinberg's  customer service also has a lot to be desired, I experienced issues with the sound cutting out, Steinberg eventually got back in touch with me after 2 months to let me know it was possibly a conflict with the graphics card.  Great device if you want to have fun but seriously, for music don't waste your cash.

Do not buy this piece of crap system, you could hardly hear the speakers in the rear and the front speakers are turned all the way down to a minus 6, in order to not hear the crackling noise. I would return it but I don't feel like going through the hassle and It was on sale from Amazon warehouse deals, I most definitely do not recommend this product

I had this professionally installed. As soon I played the first song it sounded like the voice coil was blown. I've messed around with the different levels so much and it still sounds like complete sh*t. Such a waste of money. Hundreds of dollars spent on this just to be used for a month then disconnected and put away in a closet.

Returned the thing. For two reasons: 1) It's so heavy it is dangerous. If that thing came over on a guitar it would wreck it. Come over on a toddler it could kill them.  2) Beyond that, I did some A-B testing on speaking voice and singing tracks, with and without it. Then let others listen. People would pick the sound recorded without the big acoustic shield every single time. Not 8 out of 10 or 9 out of 10. They pick the open mic in an open sheetrocked room 10 out of 10 times. These acoustic shield things do not eliminate the room, far from it. Look at it, think about it. Sound still comes from above and below. The sound gets muffled and closed in. Mics weren't designed for this. I decided better placement in the room is the key. Use the back of cardioid mic aimed to eliminate the sound you don't want. It's only my opinion, but after critical listening to the results these acoustic shields bring, I feel the only people that think acoustic shields sound good, paid for one, can't send it back, and are working hard to convince themselves it's producing a better sound. It's different, but not better. Three or four $10 sleeping bags hung up on the walls will make a much better room if you're trying to get there on the cheap.

i have a $20 headphone amp that sounds better than this. WAY to quiet... and at first it seemed to work ok but now every 10-30 minutes it decides to turn itself off making my DAW error out because of a failed sound driver which means i have to keep reloading projects and now every so often when i turn it back on it gives me a blue screen of death.... i am going to try and get a exchange through warranty because i don't think it should be acting this way.

The acoustics of the Adelaide Town Hall are so dry that it is almost painful to listen to this organ.  The sound is completely swallowed up by the near-zero reverberation time.  It's too bad that this instrument can't be in a more suitable space.

They are always buzzing out no matter the device I put them in. iPod, computer, phone, these speakers are cool when they work but most of the time they just make you angry. Also the instrumental part of the songs play well, however the actual person singing sounds like their under water and can barely hear them! There are also too many wires involved. Don't buy these!

This system is no where near the great Bose Surround sound  that u would expect from Bose . If you are looking for a decent surround system pass this one up. You will be happier paying the extra money for a better Bose system.

Just purchased the item and received it and it is a horrible sound system. Sound is highly distorted. Does not go very loud at all. On the left side I have marks on it.  Over all if you want a nice looking system this is one. But if you want sound do not purchase this item

It sounds so horrible like I am sitting inside a big drum.

This pickup came on a cheap slim-body acoustic-electric.  It has horrible low-end detection and virtually no pre-amp capabilities. Replacing with a proper pre-amp pickup.

Not sure what's going on but this thing is really horrible. Maybe it's because it's used, but the sound is crap. Also thought it was the full size unit, which it's not.

This laptop has the very worst type of sound system/speakers. They play at such low volume that even if you raise the volume up on it to 100, the volume is still lower than what the average laptop plays at mid range. And this is not only on the unit speakers. Its the same thing if you plug in headphones or external speakers. Those same speakers that played at a good volume and quality sound when used with another laptop, when used with this laptop simply had no power at all. And its not just the volume, the speakers seem to be capable of protruding treble alone. Not only will never get even a hint of bass, its incapable of playing the mid-rage either. So regardless of any other features this laptop may have, this laptop plain and simply does not have the ability to produce sound, nor in terms of volume and certainly not with any quality.

I bought this pedal new, hoping to get an electric solid body guitar to sound somewhat like an acoustic guitar on stage.  I knew going in that it would not sound like a Martin D-28, but I thought it would be good enough to play a couple of acoustic parts without having to switch guitars.

Imagine my profound disappointment.

Really, Boss??? This is by far the worst pedal I have ever used of yours.  This thing has a terrible hiss when you turn the "Top" control higher than about 9 o'clock.  At first I thought I must have a defective unit, but then I started reading reviews on-line.  Seems like it is part of the design. It's too bad because one can hear some promise in the faux acoustic tones, hidden beneath a wall of fizz. Totally unusable, as far as I'm concerned. By the way, I tested it direct to a PA as well as into a guitar amp with a single coil guitar (strat).
