you can get around the hiss by using a groundless power adapter. this works with a lot of speakers sensitive to voltage change/em interference

Nice deal. I got the green ones many years ago. They've been great. Probably gonna snag a couple just to have around. They make really nice computer speakers, too.

Tempted to buy these as computer speakers. I have nice monitors for mixing and I'm sure these are useless for that purpose, but $50 for some decent listening speakers isn't bad 🤷 ♂️

Tempted but amazon reviews mention that these have a hiss.
Combined w/ a 15% restocking fee if these are returned and not in brand new condition, this is a pass.

I just went on youtube to check the sound test. It's sound very good, compare to other same size like "PreSonus Eris E3.5". It's sound very nature and balance.
