Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Unfortunately, looks is pretty much all this set has going for it, and is why I wanted it to work so badly. It's nearly impossible to find any neat LED hardware if your theme is red, and these speakers definitely look cool as hell all lit up. The pulsing is basically a non-factor unless you have very heavy bass or your volume up all the way, but it is pretty damn cool when it works out. And for the first few months, the speakers even work fine. But after that, well... I bought my first set a while back and when they eventually died (after less than a year) I figured it was just an unlucky fluke and got a second set. That set just kicked the bucket on me today after an even shorter time frame. Mind you, I don't use them heavily, blasting sound at 100% 24/7--I just use them for gaming and some music, and before the sound starts to go out I don't even have the volume up more than about a quarter of the way. For most of this year I've actually been using headphones so the most recent set has gotten even less of a workout than the first! Unfortunately they're too expensive to risk trying again, as much as I want to love them. So, as much as it breaks my heart, I can't recommend these speakers. You'd be better off getting a more reliable set and trying to figure out cool lighting effects on your own, which unfortunately is what it looks like I'll have to do, since there's no comparable set elsewhere for looks.
