this will be used for gaming and listining to music
reviews say that this is a good surround sound system for the price considering the watts and what you get!

NO!!! This is crap. anything for under 200 now days is low quality. Especially one for $32. It says 2000 Watt? Dont belive them. It means 2000 Watts Peak power under complete ideal conditions, such conditions are not realistic. And not possible, its theoretical peak power. And also, they try to make it seem better with useless statistics, that look complicated and arent explained.
Try looking for a Reciever at bestbuy, for around $150-200. Then you can buy a cheap Satilite Speaker package, and as you progress you can upgrade the speakers with independant ones. Not in a set, like a Pair of Tower Speakers from Sony. Than buy a Polk Audio Center Channel, than later buy a Phillips Rear Channel Speakers. Thats what I recommend you do. Thats what I did, and I cant be happier right now. It fits excellent with games, movies and music. Especially the music, and dont forget to upgrade your sub.
Look out for Peak Watts and RMS Watts. Peak is a short burst of watts it can handle, and RMS watts is continuious like music. So keep an eye out for that. There are many options to this field, if you got any questions email me at vandread67158@yahoo.com

I don't normally recommend the cheapest of the cheap, but I've listened to similar systems and they actually have potential as long as you don't expect too much.
The main thing I would look for is whether or not it decodes a Dolby Digital signal. Many of these systems accept only stereo inputs and then simulate surround. This is ok for most games and music, but if you ever want to watch a DVD, I think it would be worth spending a little bit more for true separated 5.1 audio. I've seen some home theaters that will do this for as little as $60.
Don't listen to people who put down WalMart. As long as you do your research and know what you're buying, it doesn't matter where you find what you're looking for :)

It really depends on what you have to spend, if you're only working with a little bit, a system for under $40 is a deal for you. As far as how it might sound, I doubt its 2000 watts and you get what you pay for, but like I said, for 40$ as long as it even plays dolby pro logic on your games and music it should be fine

Have a listen to it before you buy .It would be impossible to sell a good sounding system for the price quoted .I don't know the brand name and i would be a little suspicious. Anyway only you would be able to tell after a demo if you like them or not. When buying loudspeakers never rely on the opinions of others as speakers all sound different .and they will give your their choice which you may or may not like

No. I don't even need to hear it to be able to tell you that that is not a good sound system. The phrase "total garbage" comes to mind.
You'd do a lot better with some cheap Logitech speakers, like what you'd use on your computer, see the sources below.

Ty to listen to it before you buy it, then compare it to some others in that price range. On the other hand, for 33 bucks, just get it already if you don't mind bottom-of-the-line performance. You get what you pay for.

My suggestion would be to go to Wal-Mart and see if you can check it out, and listen to it in the store. And if you like it , then you should buy it,
