Creative's speakers are cheap, literally and yet figuratively.
Newer and newer models seems to be this case.
They can last you through the first year without problems, great!
Straight after warranty period, they start to crumble down, for no apparent reason at all!
That's bad QC Creative, my old 20GB Nomad Jukebox player is still going strong, and I had a Zen Neeon once, sold it away after it broke down like 3 months of usage?
Bleargh..
But the old Cambridge ones should last you longer than your own lifespan.
They're built to last.
I dunno what all the anti-Creative is all about. Let me share my history with creative:Newer and newer models seems to be this case.

SB32 Pnp ISA card - still working around 4 years ago, before i switched over to Live 5.1, i think it should still work no problem.
SB Live 5.1 - 4 years old i think, still kicking.
Creative TNT2 Ultra 32MB - Sold sometime last year, it was still working after dunno how many years.
Creative TNT - Used for about 2 years before selling, no problem at all.
Creative 4.1 Speaker - bought for RM2xx maybe 3 or 4 years ago. The volume controller gets touchy but other than that still works fine and is currently use as main rig. Of course, i can't compare the sound of other PC speaker brand coz dun have the hardware to test.
I dunno, but Creative seems to be quite reliable to me.
