Great for turning your computer in to a stereo [Posted on 2004-05-29]
I wanted something to improve the sound quality of music played off of my laptop and so I started searching for some 2.1 speakers. Found these on a great bargain at xpbargains.com from Office Depot. I have them set up in our TV "room" where they sit on either side of the TV and about 5 ft. from the computer. It is a great set up. Gives listening to music from the computer a stereo feel. One thing that would make it better is if the cords between the sub and the computer input were longer. It is just a 6 ft. cord and so I can't really stretch it much further. These are not THX certified and the satellite speakers are pretty small so the sound is okay, not great. But it can fill our large studio appartment, no problem. If the price is right, and it was for me (though 78 from Amazon seems little high) I recommend these whole heartedly. They take your computer to a whole new level.
Sound Tinny [Posted on 2004-06-01]
I have an old pair of Kenyo's that I paid $12.00 for and they sound better than these!!! Find something else if you enjoy listening to music. $90.00 for these $10.00 speakers is a rip off.
Amazing sound for my iPod [Posted on 2004-09-06]
These speakers have great sound. The subwoofer adds the extra ommppphhh into it! Those who have reviewed it as bad are not sure what they're talking about. First, who gives it only one star for when he was sent white when he wanted black, doesbt thepicture have a white speaker? I thought the sound was great. Definitly worth the money...
Great for a small room [Posted on 2005-01-01]
My husband got me an iPod for Christmas, and I've been ripping CDs on my TiBook (and generally having fun with iTunes) but I didn't want to listen on the iPod all the time (need to find better in-ear earphones). Anyway, laptop builtin speakers of course suck for music, so I wanted some sort of speaker system. Ended up with these because my husband has bought Creative speakers before. The room in our house where my computer(s) are set up is quite small, so I didn't need a huge system, and this was so easy to setup. The powered woofer adds bass dimension and between the volume and equilizer controls in iTunes plus the control for the speaker systems, this is a quite reasonable setup for me. I wouldn't use it in a huge livingroom by any means, but it provides quite nice sound off my TiBook and my iPod. (Here's to speakers that use the earphone jack for connection!) Now my husband thinks he wants to get a set for his game box (a PC) because he can use the speakers when I am not here to complain, and plug in the earphones (which he uses now, because again the built-in speakers aren't great) when I am here. And please note: the volume/bass wired remote that comes with these speakers has an earphone jack on the front, so you can leave everything connected to your computer or iPod and just plug the earphones into the remote.
Speakers broke after only one year! [Posted on 2006-05-26]
We got these speakers as part of our new Dell system we purchased a little over a year ago. A few weeks ago we heard a crackle in the speakers and now they no longer work at all. I've read other reviews elsewhere concerning the same problem and apparently Creative won't recognize the pattern. Beware!
