Z560 killers?

It looks like NewEgg is down for maintenance. You are talking about the TSS-1 speakers right? I have had them for a year now and they are overall good speakers, but they don't compare to the z560s or Klipschs. The one really nice feature is the onboard 5.1 and DTS decoding. They don't have nearly the same power as the z560s or the Klipschs. And they get a little distorted at high volumes. It is weird that everyone is suddenly starting to ask about these speakers now, when they've been out for over a year.

It's probably because I noticed them on the newegg front page is all. Thanks for your mini review.
