The perfect computer speakers

One of my best purchases of the year, it was a great upgrade from my previous basic speaker system. Great sound quality, amazing bass.

I'm able to have my computer and tv connected to the same speakers, and have both going at the same time, I love it. Would reccomend HIGHLY to anyone looking for a nice 2.1 speaker system.

These speakers are apparently no longer available, but I write to recommend them used or their newer model replacements based on a very positive experience owning them for a couple of years.

I bought these speakers originally to supplement the pathetic sound on a Dell Inspiron laptop and have since moved them over to a desktop Mac EMac, and found them to be outstanding for both machines. However, I've also found them portable enough to move them over to our low-end TV when we wanted a big sound out of a DVD or a musical performance, over to an iPod, and off a digital camera to show off some baby videos. The independent volume controls and deep range on the speakers provide lots of flexibility in mixing in a variety of sources, and we've actually found the dual sound inputs on the back (there's an A to B mix switcher to allow simultaneous dual sound sources) to be quite useful. One can, for instance, hook up a connecting line from the stereo and use these as a second set of bookshelf speakers without unhooking it from the computer, and with a flick of the dial on the one speaker, change the mix between the two. We're sort of halfway between using traditional music sources and computer-based sources, so having cables running "both ways" has been nice.

As with most Bose speakers, the range and fidelity are excellent, and it is possible to turn the volume up too loud to the point of distortion, but (thus far) when we've done that there's no apparent damage to the speakers. In other words, for a pair of tiny desktop speakers, they provide more sound and volume than we really ever want or that the source can actually provide with any fidelity.

I particularly like the slight angle to which these speakers are canted, as they point the sound sources towards one's ears. They're also directionally accurate, so if you want to "point" your sound and still get the surround effect, it's easy enough to do.

The RF shielding is outstanding; I have one speaker crammed right up against a traditional CRT, and I've never seen a quaver on the screen, nor has there been any noticeable distortion in the operation of a variety of electronic devices that get thrown into a space close to the speakers.

My only quibble with the provided package is the length of the cables and power cable, a common problem for all the desktop arrangements; one does want to stretch the cables around an astonishing array of stuff sometimes.

In any event, I rarely write reviews of electronics products, but I've been so happy with these speakers I decided to go ahead and make an exception. I've been very disappointed by desktop speakers before, but not this time.

I love these speakers.  There is no need for the "brick" power supply as these plug into a USB port.  The size is big enough to have decent sound, yet small enough to not crowd the desktop.  Does this produce the 5.1 surround sound?  Err, no, but who sits at their computer to enjoy the movie theater experience?  These serve their purpose well while using iTunes, YouTube, Skype, and general internet video clips.  If you want a booming sound system, then go buy one.  If you need a decent set of computer speakers at a very reasonable price....BUY THESE.

Simply amazing speakers for the price!  We needed new desktop speakers to replace our old cheap Office Depot brand that stopped working.  We paid the same price but got a product that is night and day to the old ones. They sound as good as a set of quality bookshelf speakers. You can't go wrong with these, they are that good.

I put these on my"list" shortly before Christmas 2016 because I was unhappy with the speakers I had on my PC. But then I bought a dedicated sound card for my PC and made my current speakers so much better that I never bought these Logitech speakers. My wife bought these for me for Xmas 2016 because they were on my list and she didn't have any other gift ideas for me. So since I was happy with the speaker setup I had they sat in the box until today (12/25/2017). I decided to put them to use on my PC because I wanted to re-purpose the ones currently on my PC for a retro-arcade that I built because they were sized well for the application. WOW had I known these Logitech speakers sounded this good I would have swapped them out on day one. these are very very impressive for PC speakers.

I purchased these to replace the speakers in my HP all-in-one that randomly stopped working. I liked them because they matched the modern white design of my computer as well as the green from my lamp. The sound is amazing for such small speakers. Extremely happy with this purchase

These speakers are killer for the price. No static and small as can be...you can tuck them outta the way if you have little space. You really will be blown away at how much sound you'll get outta these. Perfect to replace your crappy laptop speakers and for your desktop computer too. They do require ac adapter power....just fyi. If you want similar sound on just usb power I'm pretty sure this product has a sister product that is just usb only, that also has great reviews too. But honestly, these are good enough....whether you're gaming, watching Netflix, or the occasional webinar or YouTube video, don't buy some high end name for the brand name you have sitting on your desktop. These rock and I'm sure you'll be very satisfied as I was...it actually shocked me how good they are. I paid like 16 buck for these at the first of Nov. 2016, and they are worth every penny. I hope this helps your buying decision.

Let me start by saying I'm not an audiophile but from a layperson's point of view, these are great speakers.  They are well built and easy to set up.  Plug and play.

The sound is crystalline compared to every previous set of computer speakers I've had.  The separation is great and the bass is booming relative to their size.  Music sounds so much better.

For their price and size, these speakers were an excellent purchase.  Couldn't be happier.  I'm confident I made the right decision to not buy the M-Audio AV 40s.

For desktop PC 2.1 speakers, there's now likely anything out there that can beat this setup.  The sound and range far exceed the Logitech 2.1 speakers that I replaced.  Now, I'm clearly hearing all of those subtle background sounds that weren't  evident before.  Besides playing stereo music, I do a lot of gaming and these are a great upgrade solution for me.  Powerful, dynamic sound at a great price!

I never knew that computer speakers could have such full and rich sound! They crank pretty loud as well with seperate bass & treble control! All Your Music, Movies & Spoken Word will come alive in Clean, Warm and Crisp Sound! I Highly Recommend!

When I first open the package, I thought "Oh my" what are these gonna sound like?? But the reviews were high so hooked them up to my lap top and WOW it's true good things come in small packages. My Toshiba built in speakers were a joke. Also love that they hook on the top without obstructing the screen. They are 2 speakers, volume in on the cord,  I suppose you could put them on the side of lap top.

I looked for at least an hour before settling on these, So you looking for little speakers to go with your lap top, look no more you found them

All I know is if your looking for a small hook on speaker, look no more this is the one to get.

These speakers are amazing and in my eyes GREAT! I specifically wanted these Labtec LCS-1050 Spin after I loaned these identical speakers to a friend who didn't return them. They are very rich in sound - actually kind of like a smaller version of their LCS-1070 (they don't make them anymore) - which I will NEVER ever get rid of nor loan out to anyone! I wanted these speakers specifically for my lap-top and, if I should get a smaller HD TV (with a headphone jack out-put) these are the one's I'll buy again!

I wanted to get the best 5.1 speakers made for computers and I am truly impressed with the sound quality of these speakers. They are above my expectations.  I've been using Boston 4.1 speakers that work fine for the past 15 years so I hesitated spending $366 for these Logitech. I'm glad I finally took the leap because the improvement is incredible. I highly recommend buying these if you want a truly amazing surround sound system for your computer.

These speakers have a great, full sound. I bought them with a cheap little amplifier to use as my computer speakers in lieu of those tacky computer speaker sets from logitech and the like. I couldn't be happier with the sound and build quality.

These are so wonderful for such a great price i bought mines for 89 dollars and i think they are so incredible for computer speakers if you have any doubts about these speakers trust me they are worth every dollar.

I've been a fan of Logitech for years now, having used their speakers, mice, and keyboards for over a decade.

I had been using a set of z-640s since my original purchase of them in 2003, and after making some significant upgrades to my office I felt the need to finally splurge on a high quality 5.1 configuration. After considering several receiver and speaker kits in the same price range, I decided that sticking with a brand I knew and loved was the correct thing to do.

I was not disappointed. The sound quality, especially in a relatively small space, is simply astounding! Even at ear-splitting volume levels, these speakers sound fantastic!

I'm connected from my SB Recon3D card via toslink. After some minor sound configuration tweaks, I'm hearing things in music that were inaudible with my old speakers. In games, all sound effects are pronounced, including reverb and 3D effects.

I cannot recommend these speakers enough. To the casual non-audiophile (in fairness, these speakers are not marketed to audiophiles, who would never ask for the kind of quality they require from anything that could be bought for $350 or less) music fan or to the PC gamer, these really are everything you would ever want or need for your PC.

Buy these speakers, download a high-quality MP3 of the THX sound, and revel in the majesty of the SOUND you'll get out of these!

My god this unit sounds good! I've tested out a $150 Klipsch unit at best buy and this thing blows it out of the water when it comes to sound quality. This is the best-bang-for-buck computer speaker system that I know of. I own 2 of these units, one for me and one for my significant other. We both love them.
