"Hi, my name is Tony Ramirez, from Tampa, Florida, and on behalf of Expert Village, this is audio for your PC. Alright, let's talk a little bit about a 2.1 speaker system for your actual computer. This right here's a 2.1 stereo system. What it is, is two satellite speakers, one left one, and one right one, that actually deliver the stereo sound from your computer to, of course, your speakers. Now the reason these are called 2.1 is its two satellite speakers, just as I mentioned, and the .1 is actually your subwoofer. So your subwoofer will provide all your low frequencies, your base, things like that. So this is an active system, or a powered system, so it will actually plug up to the wall or to your actual power socket or power break out box, however you may have it. Set up your power surge protector, whatever you have onto your computer, and then it will plug up into your actual computer using a standard stereo headphones jack. This will plug up either to the front or to the back of your computer, and deliver your stereo sound in a 2.1 system, of course, your left, your right, and your subwoofer. So this is a great way, this is an inexpensive system that delivers great sound for your standard music listening, or anything that you're going to be doing that's just is in need of a regular stereo sound, even video games. So, this is your 2.1 system."
