I promise you will be astounded by how clear and rich your iMac will sound.

They sound good beside an iMac, so I assume if you balance them correctly, they'll sound good on one too.

They're pretty good! I bought mine a couple of months ago and they sound great. the 7.1 surround sound is a little overkill but they make for a fantastic 5.1 surround sound headset, just make sure your computer has enough audio jacks at the back for all the wires!

I bought them for my iMac but did not work very well--computer kept freezing every once a while.

Depends how you define oomph. I would probably say if you're an audiophile you'll be disappointed with the speakers. They will provide decent sound in a large room, but they do not have the bass or clarity of the previous generation. These would be good speakers to have on a desk to compliment your computer, but would struggle to perform as stand alone speakers.

They do sound good, I don't use them is a low hertz application, I use them as Mids/Highs.

Not sure I dont think so I have a set of these connected to a alienware laptop and they sound pretty good, they also look good sitting on the glass desk, easy to operate oh and also I use these speakers with my ipad mini and they great.

Nope--you're good to go! I've had my speakers for several months now & have been using them w/my MacBook Pro. They're great!!

We use ours as our iMAc's speakers and they work great for everything. A bit overkill for just that purpose, but your music from iTunes will never sound better! :o) We love ours and use them daily for music, video and just for the computer's audio, and of course for recording and mixing which they excel at.

They're honestly not "good" for any usage, but they'll be functional for both of those. Better choice would be the micca mb42x or pioneer Andrew Jones speakers. They're smaller, but are farrrr better designed and, surprisingly, even have better bass response.

I have no problem with audio when using mine. But then again I don't have an iMac. If your iMac has the proper port then I'm sure you will have no issues with audio. You may need to select "sounds & devices" (or whatever it may be called on yours, and switch your audio output to HDMI which is what I had to do at first. Some computer models won't recognize the adapter as a default audio output device, so you will have to manually change it.

I bought one to work with my iMac, and was disappointed in the sound. It added very little, and wasn't worth the money. I sent it back and got a refund.

They are very clear but probably not practical for workstations. Other alternatives out there. Look at some Bluetooth speakers. That's what I use and very happy with.

I gave them to my son, he said they are great speakers. He has the new very light macbook air.

No you have to have a working headphone adapter in order for them to work. The USB just powers the speakers. Now if you go to RadioShack. They have a Bluetooth receiver and as long as ur iMac has Bluetooth then you can use that plus you will have wireless speakers! What you will need from RadioShack is 1. Bluetooth connect by xtrememac 2. 3.5mm female to 3.5mm female coupler3. 1 pack of AAA batteries (the BT connect is small and portable therefore you need batteries) I really hope this helps

I like them. They are plugged into my Laptop (Not an Imac), which has a USB next to the speaker jack. They get me rock when it's cranked...

I love mine. They work well for the reason I bought them-to hear sound from my iMac in another room. I think they're fine for the price.

Have an iMac 27in. Definitely plugs into the computer. Don't have experience with other headphones but these sound like they have a full spectrum of sound.
