True, but then again, most speakers in arcade machines were fighting for volume with the machines around them. Besides, speaker size does not matter so much. If those speakers can push a decent volume over a short distance with a reasonable frequency response I'd say go for it. I can't remember ever seeing a decent sound system in an arcade!
monkey puzzle:
Yes, the speakers are more than loud enough for my needs (unless I want the neighbours complaining) and there is no distortion when turned to maximum volume. Maybe in the future I would upgrade to a speaker system with a bass subwoofer for a fuller sound though.

 I didnt mean volume.  The larger the diameter, the more bass response you can get, and the more air that is moved as well.

 Personally, Im not a big fan of subwoofers.  They often tend to muddy the sound more than add to it.  I prefer a decent clean & tight woofer instead.

 And if you want strong vibration effects, a tactile transducer will be the best.
