Thinking of getting it. Anyone got any comments on this one? Saw some reviewers saying it automatically turns their Samsung TVs on

Ordered 8 days ago and still waiting for a shipping update. 'The delivery date may be updated when FedEx receives the package. '

Now I understand why people are hating on newegg.

It's built in and small. It compares with the Bose Solo but probably a little bit better. For the money this is a great buy, check eBay as it might be the same price but you don't have to deal with Newegg.

I would jump on it if the wife would let me, want to replace a 10 year old Samsung 2.1. I find I don't need or like the sub in my family room. But I do have a high end 5.1.2 system in the basement HT..

Damn, that seller pulls some shady $hit. Look at the seller reviews. Yikes.

I'll wait for ebay or amazon warehouse deal.

2.5"...It is not truly a subwoofer. It is a small mid-bass driver.

Would it makes a good computer speaker? Looking for something compact to be placed under monitor, as i can no longer fit my bookshelf ones with a second monitor.

I'm looking for a small sound bar as well. Why don't speaker vendors make more PC speakers in this form-factor where you can place it in front of the keyboard/under-monitor. It looks cleaner and they can be tuned from the factory so that left-right channels sound balanced.

Edit: It's tough to find this soundbar below $100. I'm going to take a gamble here and buy it. I'll let those here know how it goes with VIPOUTLET.

It depends on what you want for your speakers. It is pretty big for a computer speaker and might sound odd sitting so close.

Look at Edifier for computer speakers. They are generally made for near field listening and come in all shapes, sizes and prices.

As an example for $100 this would be hard to beat but they could be big for you 5.75in x 9.5in x 7in (WxHxD).

That form factor of a speaker is exactly why I'm looking for something that can fit under a monitor.

I'm currently using a pair of 6-inch (passive) bookshelf speaker that's next to my monitor. With a second monitor added, i can no longer fit the bookshelf speakers in my desk space, so i'm needing something low profile under my primary monitor. 23-inch wide seems to be perfect. (also i use monitor mount so there are 4-ish inches of clearance under monitor)

I can only comment on my 1 experience with VIP Outlet. I purchased one of the recent refurbished Gateway laptops and my experience with VIP Outlet was very smooth.

Ordered 2/16, shipped 2/18 and received 2/23.

The laptop is great, looks new and I had no issues with billing or anything.

Newegg has gone way downhill over the years. Used to buy from them almost exclusively but avoid them like the plague these days
