Are these speakers amplified as my laptop volume does not go very high. Do they also have a volume control?

My 10 year old loves these!!! They get very loud! ...they work awesome on my other sons iPhone. Sound control, I'm not sure. But they are great! Our neighbors son has them as well!

In order for the speakers to "Dance" I found that I needed to have my volume for my computer to be at least 50% power.

Yes the do hook up to your lap top. Though they do require a USB power source I found that you can use your phone charger or apple wall port. The speakers do not have a volume control but the volube adjusts on your laptop that will control the volume of the speakers obviously but the downfall Is that the lower the volume is the lower the dancing speakers will flow. But they are suprisingly loud and pleasing. They make a nice nightlight and the fact each line of water glows makes it fun and cooler

Ummm, no,, You must have an amplifier between your computer and these speakers.

They are Dolby professionally tuned speakers per Acer. My experience is they are excellent quality speakers for a laptop.

These are not powered speakers. You need an amplifier. So these are definitely not meant to be hooked up to a computer.

They're passive speakers so you'd need an amplifier between your computer and your speakers. I use an Onkyo 8255 receiver/amplifier, which my computer is connected to (laptop 1/8" jack into RCA jack using an adapter).

Hi. These speakers respond to the input you run into them. Do you have an amp connected to your system for these speakers? Also, as with everything, the output from your equipment may need to be adjusted if you are using a mixer with microphone lines. Hard question to answer without more specifics about your system. I will say these speakers with a Crown 2500 amp are astounding for sound, but I don't run mics

These have no volume control. Control the volume from the device they are connected to.

If you like music, you probably will not e satisfied with the sound from the laptop. when playing music, I always rout my sound to some external speakers or player.

Yes they are amplified. The right speaker contains the amp and associated electronics. The left speaker connects to the right speaker with a standard rca/phono cord.

Yea but I imagine the volume control is in your cabinet system, never used it. On back of amp there is a line out return and send. Good sound but not an expert. Sorry

These speakers need an amplifier. These aren't really made to be computer speakers per se. They can work for that but you would need to get an audio amp which would connect to the audio output of your computer and then these speakers would hook up to the amplifier.

Not sure if they are amplified. But it has its own power cord. So maybe it is. It's a good sub. It will shake your room. And you can turn it up or down.

I installed theese speakers in a Astro cargo van, I dont listen very high volume, so they are ok for me. If you are looking for higher levels you should look for other kind of speakers.

These speakers are not self powered. You will need an amp of some kind to power them. They are good speakers for the price. I like mine.

They don't have volume control, not sure about the decibels, but I would not say much. Depends on what you want them for, I finally got some expensive noise cancelling headphones.

no, these are not powered speakers and the volume would be controlled with a powered amp (stereo receiver). they have a very nice white grill. you can't see the speaker with the grill.

No they do not have volume control. But the sound can be controlled by the device in which they are connected.
