Ya, power switch... it turns on and off automatically but if 10w draw is a problem, get a surge pro with a switch on it.
I spent more than this to repair my amp after the surge damage 10 years ago. Seriously considering buying another set as a spare... but I have too much extra junk already in my spare closet.
Like others have mentioned, the sudden price drops make me wonder what is up. These things were $149-199 forever. Now this year they are on sale everywhere. New model coming out maybe? This design is 20+ years old so maybe it's time for a refresh with bluetooth? I don't know anything, just thinking out loud
This overemphasis of mid-treble commonly occurs in Klipsch soundbars according to Rtings:

Instead of buying any higher priced Logitech's I would just drop "Tang Band W3-881SJ 3" Cast Frame Neodymium Driver" drivers into the satellites and your vocals would supremely improve. You'd be wondering why you haven't done it sooner. Dropping in Tang Bands into the satellites is only worth it when you can get the Klipsch Promedia 2.1's for this kind of price. The sound is difficult to beat at this price with Tang Bands dropped into the satellites.
Ordering a second set now for a backup or to use on my TV.
The one complaint I have is that it includes bluetooth with no PIN or security. So anyone in the area can connect to the speakers. This is not a huge issue in a house, but could be a pain in an apt complex.

These don't have Bluetooth.

Random bonus or like a year end bonus?

The tang bands are drop in, plug and play?
You should swap the volumes. You're over amplifying the signal going in, pre-amplifying will distort your music. Like, when your iPhone volume is too loud in your car and Bluetooth sounds like crap. You want the gain on the last volume channel.

I bought a set on Amazon yesterday thanks to this thread.
