Pros

Four drivers in each satellite and a large subwoofer to pump extra bass.
Excellent audio performance.
Unique - and now classic - design.
Powerful.
Improved cable quality.

Cons

No external jack for plugging in headphones.
The bass controls are mounted on the subwoofer itself.
There's no way to turn off the translucent lighting without powering down the entire system.
No remote control.
Semi-hardwired cables - if cables fail, system needs to be repaired or replaced.
