I need a set for a bartop build but the reviews have me scared.

The reviews make me think that there is some ground loop noise.  If you make your own power supply for these puppies, it should go away (at least that what's I think).

Enter in the promo code and it goes down to $4.99


Also, if you have shopprunner, you can get free 2 day shipping on these speakers (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16836150064&Tpk=N82E16836150064) and it will be $4.99 as well. They seem slightly better.

If you are in the UK, ASDA has a set of USB speakers going for £3.76.  They are alright for personal stereos or in my next project (that won't be scrubbed) weecade.

Also if you have a Pound Land near you I picked up a LED book light for a £1.  Perfect for your weecade or bartop marquee.  This little thing is quite bright.
