Highly recommend. Can't beat this value. Very happy with my purchase. Sounds great for the price.
Speakers are alright for the price, nothing spectacular. Speakers on my 32" Sony tv went out so I need to get a set of external speakers for it. Next time, I would pay a couple of extra dollars to get it from newegg with free shipping and it would be here in two days instead of almost two weeks. Side note: Ordered it on Monday morning with super saver shipping and didn't arrive until the following Thursday (almost two weeks). Decided to get this model since I don't want something too big or loud because the set is in the bedroom. Went into the menu and shut off the internal speakers and now I can hear again when I turn on the Sony.
Turn the bass down, and they're really OK. I had just been thinking of picking up some little speakers so we could listen to music from my laptop, so using that found cash to do it seemed a no brainer.Popped into the local stereo store and bought these only because they seemed like the right price and the size.They're not great, but much better than the built-in speakers on my Dell Vostro. Now, what to do with the rest of the cash. We're staying in a vacation rental house in Tuscany and I had to clean the sheets from the previous user. I was moaning about having to do this, when a 50 euro bill fell out of the sheets.
My source is my iTunes library.Some songs for reference:Young Jeezy - Put On: un-listenableFleetwood Mac - Landslide: AverageSilversun Pickups - Lazy Eye: Far too much midbassRed Hot Chili Peppers - Soul to Squeeze: A hint of distortion If you don't set your expectations too high, you won't be too disappointed. To prevent songs from distorting, I've had to drop the 32hz freq to -12db and 64hz to -6db. Normal listening volume is about the max of the system before distortion sets in.
Hip-hop, techno, or anything with a deep drum/bass beat, will tend to distort in the satellites. I didn't expect earth-shattering bass and amazing clarity, but the sound is really nothing special. Based on your music choices, the sound will range from adequate to poor.
The overall volume is definitely below average and will take adjustments with your PC and source program. But for $27, I guess you get what you pay for. Likely they use passive, 6db/octave crossovers, which just aren't designed to roll those deeper frequencies off fast enough.
Some songs are un-listenable w/o major adjustments to the equalizer.
If you want any kind of real sound wait a little longer put away a little more money and get the kind of sound that you deserve. The sub is a lot smaller than I thought it was going to be and the sound quality is just not what I expected from a Logitech product. I understand that these speakers are cheap and you can't really expect much from them but I've had 2.0 speakers that put out more sound than these. I gave them a shot at school and they just didn't cut it.
