    To the comment below mine which states that the Treble and Bass knobs are backward, they are not. I am looking at mine right now... I have seen that EXACT comment in multiple places and, although true for the older models, it is not the case for the new ones. Even if they were, who cares... Still, these are great speakers for what they are. Great thick and punching bass with crisp highs and clear mids. Certainly better than my 5 year old Harman/Kardons... A great buy and highly recommended!

    BASS and TREBLE Controls are BACKWARDS

    Pretty Good sound. Midrange is weak, but you can boost it through iTunes controls. Be warned: the bass and treble knobs are wired BACKWARDS ! Turn either knob towards + and the result is a DECREASE in that function. Turn either knob towards - and the result is an INCREASE in that function. Don't believe me that JBL "Quality Control" could have missed this? Go to your nearest Apple store and see for yourself.

    Currently, Creature III are only available at Apple Stores, and in BLACK (Another boneheaded move by JBL, since Apple products are all White/Chrome). WHITE Speakers due out in January. But it will probably take a couple months for correctly wired speakers to hit store shelves.

    I just upgraded my old JBL computer speakers to the JBL Creature III and I am very satisfied. However, for some reason they do not seem as loud as my last pair, but the bass and clarity has improved alot. I also like how the bass and treble control knobs are placed right in front for easy access. I would definitely recommend these speakers to anyone looking to buy new computer speakers. They are well worth the extra money; you will not be disappointed!
