400 bucks speaker system but doesn't have a IR remote control or smartphone app.
Been using my little 40 bucks Logitech speakers set for the past 15 years, and finally switched to a sound bar. Don't want the L/R speaker wire clutter and humongous sub woofer, it's just not needed IMO as you are sitting up close to the speaker, you don't really need the extra loud sound and bass, it's just going to annoy your neighbor and I never want any family member know what I'm listening to. And you use headset if you want left and right directional stereo sound.

NZXT and "Enhances Your PC Gaming Experience" don't go in the same sentence. The speakers are probably so bassy they sound muffled.
