Scythe is well-known for cooling solutions for computer hardwares (CPU, Videocard, Memory and Casing). But this time, they offer an accessory that makes your computer looks more elegant and portable Desktop PC. I'll introduce one of their innovated product, Scythe Kama Bay Speaker.
The Kama Bay Speaker is designed for Desktop PCs with a free 5.25" bay. It is a good alternative for people who doesn't have a free space for speakers, hates excessive wirings at the back, loves extra gadget for their PC, or carrying the CPU without bringing your huge computer sound system.

Physical Appearance. I can say "cool" for its elegant design. You can choose from colors black, silver, or white that fits your taste (different colors sold separately). Power switch and volume control are available on the panel itself in case you want to switch to headset or moderate its volume according to your environment.
Sound Quality. One you should consider first before purchasing this item is the sound quality. As the size of these four small-sized speakers, of course you can't compare these to those sound system with a subwoofer. This product provides a quality output that satisfies your basic gaming experience and daily needs in digital computing.
I expect this will perform just like those quality stereo speakers so I tried to listen on some of my music collection with different genres. Playing acoustics are lovely, instrumentals are even better, rock music are acceptable, but when it comes to pop music something bothers me --- the bass. Music with bass is good but as you raise the volume, the sound quality is getting distorted (they are no longer pleasing to the ears). By the way, extensive bass may damage your computer harddrive with those vibrations. So if you want a full-blown bass, get a real speakers with subwoofer. If you prefer to have a calm and peaceful environment, this item suites your needs.
Price. In overall function, portability, innovative design, and sound quality, I think the price was fair enough to deal with (purchased price is Php1,250.00). Although if you purchase a speaker system, you can have a good 2.1 sound system with it. What you pay most is the brand and its design.
