OK I found some good info
The CSW really smokes as a laptop 2.1.

In addition to a laptop, (and my desktop where it currently resides), I've also had it hooked up to a little cheap CD clock radio. It sounded pretty good even with that cheapo source.

Yup, I got those penguins. VS ran out of them ages ago, I think this was a one off from some Japanese company so they can produce the drivers in quantity. The flat panel drivers is pretty decent, but the bass modual isn't. My idea is to toss the bass modual and power the sats with the tripath amp. I'll keep the self powered sub from the CSW 210D, but I don't want to use the 60wpc L/R output of it's amp to power these VS sats, as they are a 5 watt max. driver.
I don't know anything about Acoustic Energy or the Aego 2. Sounds interesting though....
