Sound is a facet of the PC that varies greatly, arguably more so than any other. Some users need excellent sound, some need mediocre, and some need no sound at all. For a software developer inside a corporation, a sound system on a workstation probably isn’t necessary at all. Visual Studio certainly doesn’t require it. By the same token, some PCs serve as a TV, Stereo, and DVD player all in one, and therefore require incredible sound reproduction.

As a result, manufacturers of both sound cards and speakers are required to offer a diversified range of products. One such speaker manufacturer, S4 MidiLand, is the focus of today’s piece. S4 MidiLand has been providing the PC industry with speaker solutions for years. MidiLand offers a broad range of products, each carefully crafted to meet its own niche.

Today we’ll be taking a look at one such system, S4 MidiLand’s 7100 Plus. The 7100 Plus is targeted as a mid- to upper-end sound system, offering Dolby AC3 5.1-channel decoding, 100 Watts of power, and a sleek metallic finish. The 7100 Plus is priced competitively against other systems with similar capabilities, and is backed by MidiLand’s solid reputation. Read on as we take a look at the 7100 Plus, and see how they really sound.
