A word of warning about the size of the power adapter if the P380 speakers that I bought (and returned to PC World) are anything to go by...

The power adapter on the ones that I got was not only pretty ugly (looked a bit like a heatsink), but also it was too wide at either side, meaning that you could not plug anything in alongside it if it was plugged into a 4 gang extension lead or a wall mains socket. As I had no more wall sockets available and didn't have a 6 gang extension lead handy, I thought the best solution would be to take it back.

Apart from that I could not fault the sound quality of the P380 speakers I had. Quite good and the bass pretty punchy if you turn fiddle with the knob behind the subwoofer.

as long as its safe that what concerned about, i have some creative 2.1's already and it has a 'normal' plug but with a huge brick from the middle of the lead to the sub..........

glad to hear the speakers were decent on the P380 though
