Does this work as a speaker for the desk? Can it be plugged in and just remain there? Does it sound good enough for that?

yes it can be plugged in and just stay there. and yes this speaker from anker is awesome for the size, small enough to hide and sounds great like a nice stereo. ,

Blue tooth or plug in works. It recharges by USB (comes with it). I've played it for hours on the first charge. Would be great for the desk.

It does have an AUX in, so you can use that. Not sure if I will use it as a desktop speaker, but I can't see why not. For the price and given a compact size, I think it sounds pretty good.

Yes, it includes two things in the package, a USB charger and a speaker jack; I took this on my vacation used it both to watch movies on my computer, and for music at the beach, don't underestimate the sound of this little box. Has pretty good bass for a portable box.

It doesnt need to be plugged in because of the great battery life, but yes it is good enough. It can easily cover a medium sized room. It uses a micro USB port to charge. If you like deep bass, this is not the speaker for you. But if you enjoy other music, it has great quality for the price.

Great question. It all depends on your Bluetooth adapter on your desktop. It works excellent with my Note 3 but works like garbage with the $10 Bluetooth adapter I bought. So all depends on the adapter I suppose. The sound quality is amazing regardless.

I use it with some Bose bookshelf speakers on a TV in the man cave. It would be great for pc speakers. However I don't think it will work for you. It has either RCA or bare wire outputs. The usb port is for input, ie. ipods, flash drives etc. to play sound through.

You can place it on the desk--but the cord for the mic has to stay plugged into the speaker so keep in mind that you will have limited room to move. If you have a podium it would most likely work perfectly.

I have hooked a monitor up to my laptop to watch Netflix and have the above speakers connected to my laptop for the sound. In my office the sound is good and I listen to my iTunes as well. These certainly are not loud speakers nor meant for a large room.

This is a bad little speaker! Totally worth the money, and, really convenient. There's a connector that you can purchase for about three dollars to hook into the laptop. Or you could try finding a cord with different sizes on each end. I recommend just getting the little converter, though. Its cheap and useful for more than just this one task. Good luck, toi toi, break a leg (whatever your tradition may be)

If it has a USB port I would think so. Using the speaker with my desktop was a simple matter of plugging it into my USB port.

Yes, you can plug it into a speaker. I plugged mine into my alarm clock. Works just fine!

Hi, Justin. I would stick with an external speaker. The BassJump is a base-reinforcement speaker that compliments the laptop's build in speakers. It works OK, but I think a separate, full range (and wireless) speaker is the way to go for training situations, which I also do as a career consultant. BTW, I just got the Bose SoundLink Mini and it is an awesome bluetooth speaker. Not cheap, but great performance for a tiny portable speaker. Fills the room with sound. You might want to check it out for your training.

yeah, it should. i have used it for 12+ hours and it never went out while in was plugged in, is it a good idea to use this speaker 'non-stop'....probably not.

It sounds pretty good. It's not a big, boomin' gong, but for the price, it's not bad, either. It doesn't sound like a hub cap or anything. And it looks good, adds to our decor, and is a good conversation starter. Or dinner "bell." Don't think I can attach an MP3, so I hope that helps.

Hello john, this is good for some good music. It depends on your intended use really. Its not meant for parties, but background music and alone music is great. Also look at the db sensativity on your speakers. Some speakers will sound louder at same volume then others. Cheers!

I think you will find that if you put it on the nightstand it will produce just enough sound for you...hope this helps...

The speaker has a male mini plug jack, the same as a headphone would use that would plug in to your phone, iPod, or MP3 player. It is platform independent, so if your computer has a port for headphones and volume control (the speaker doesn't have any volume control) you should be fine. HOWEVER, the cable on this speaker is extremely short, and you may want to purchase a longer male female extension cable.

Its a USB plug in. The cable is way to short for use with a Desktop. If you want to Knock your Socks Off check out the Altec Lansing VS4621 Octane this with the Sub Woofer is just like a home system on Amazon, if you don't want a subwoofer they have plenty of two speaker sets.

Pair of speakers is definitely the way to go. The volume with just one speaker is decent if you are sitting at a desk or within a few feet of the speaker. If you need the sound to fill a room, you definitely need two.

You can use the USB plug for Sound/Power, you don't need to use the audio jack. I have mine plugged in to my desktop and I think the sound is really nice. I listen to lectures and music on then and I like that you can control the sound from the right side speaker dial.

This would not be good to put on a desk... It would require to turn the gain up on a mixer which would distort your sound. You'd be better off with a different style of mic, maybe a condenser mic, for that purpose.
