some of the satellite speaker companies can get quite loud. But remember one thing. They are very small. This prevents them from being able to produce accurate(and even good sounding) music. If the tweeter is 1/4 inch and the driver is 2 inches, simple physics tells us that for producing loud music, bigger is better. I have heard systems though that get loud. USsually the sub on these systems is louder then the speakers, but in general they dont sound too good.
