The Apple Pro Speakers are a set of computer speakers designed for use with your Apple lap top or desktop. The speakers are self powered so you don't need an external power amplifier and have an interesting design and shape.
SOUNDS
The sound quality of the Apple Pro Speakers is respectable for a set of computer speakers, but isn't anything special in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, they definitely have a listenable sound and all that, but they definitely aren't good enough for anything beyond casual listening purposes. They can get pretty loud and have a good response across the board, but lack clarity at some places and don't provide enough punch. The low end is pretty lacking as there isn't much response there. The dynamics are fine and so is the stereo imaging is okay, but as I stated before, for anything besides listening to music casually the Apple Pro Speakers aren't suitable.
OVERALL OPINION
I've been using the Apple Pro Speakers for a few years and don't mind them much for listening to music on as they get the job done. It is nice to have a cheap set of speakers that I can easily move around to whenever I bring my lap top. This being said, the sound quality isn't anything to write home about and you can forget using these for anything related pro audio. The price is probably the best part about these speakers as they are extremely affordable. They have a sleek design and definitely look cool for what that is worth. All in all, I like listening to music on these at home when I don't have anything else to use, but if you are looking for anything more than that you need to look elsewhere, especially if you are looking for a set of speaker to use for mixing and other pro audio uses.
