dont go for a system that only has really little speakers on the desk and a decent size bass woofer. What is needed to reproduce sound is a good middle register speaker as well, to blend the lows and the highs together. To find out if the system you are looking at has midranges, just look at it. If it doesnt look big, it isnt. i hope you understand my rantings. I try and help for audio is my specialty.
