They look a real cut about the Creative/Altec stuff.
And the price isn't exactly cheap from what I hear
(~AUD$1,000) but look, they use MDF, they use Audax
drivers. The control box/amp looks the part. 

Ok the power and THD figures are kinda dodgy:

Power output: Satellites: 20W RMS per channel.
Subwoofer: 40W RMS.
Full system (all channels driven):
80 Watts RMS at 1% THD;
100 Watts RMS at 10% THD.

but on the whole; quite a decent setup.
The 'near-field monitor' spiel is rather
much though.
