  • $10.97 for Basic Computer Speakers - Good Quality Considering Rock Bottom Price
Style: USB
This is a "stripped down" very basic pair of speakers for your laptop, Chromebook or PC. For only $10.97 I did not expect much, but this is actually pretty good quality considering it cost a mere $10.97. These are ONLY for listening when you are sitting within 5-6 feet of your laptop, Chromebook or PC and NOT for listening on the opposite side of the room 20-30 feet away. No biggie - cos what do you expect for merely $10.97? It has a very simple volume control knob. A 3rd grade kid could figure out how to install these speakers. I didn't even need to read the instruction book! I just opened the box, pulled out the packaging and popped in the USB plug, the round, long prong and put it into the internal socket on my Chromebook. Then I quickly inserted the 3rd peripheral into my Chromebook plug, turned on the volume to full blast and BINGO! I had really clear volume instantly. Later on I read the warranty info and owners manual. Not much really to study since this is definitely "Bare Bones" "strippe down" very basic PC, laptop, Chromebook speakers. This is a sold, very low priced pair of speakers good for increasing the volume on your computer to listen to You Tube videos, streaming video. Let's face it - the speakers that come pre-installed on most Chromebooks, PC's and laptops are pretty weak. If you want louder quality audio - this is a pretty nifty "stripped down basic" pair of speakers for a rock bottom price. I was listening to a PBS streaming video documentary on Maria Callas - the late, great, brilliant opera diva from the 1950's - 1960's and the sound quality of Maria Callas operatic solos was crystal clear. I could also clearly hear the symphony orchestra in the background accompanying Maria Callas in her world class tour de force performance at La Scala in Italy and the Met Opera way back in the late 1950's - early 1960's. If you are on a really tight budget and want to oomph up the audio volume on your laptop, PC or Chromebook you get a LOT of "bang for your buck". Don't expect any fancy "Bells and Whistles". There is a basic, simple audio volume control knob on one of the speakers - but it does the job! I highly recommend it! IT was quite well packaged with a LOT of durable protective cardboard packaging inside specifically designed to cushion both speakers. I just wish Amazon would GET THERE ACT TOGETHER AND FOR GOODNESS SAKE STOP INCLUDING THE TOTALLY UNECCESSARY PLASTIC BAG that cannot be recycled. Amazon brags TOO MUCH about being so-called "Green" and environmentally friendly but that is NOT TRUE! The box the speakers came in was MORE than sufficient for the packaging. Amazon shipped this direct from their warehouse and insisted on including a COMPLETELY UNCESSESSARY PLASTIC BAG that cannot be recycled and will wind up in the ocean's Plastic Gyre or toxic dump landfill. AMAZON GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER and eliminate completely uncessary plastic bag packaging! Also for goodness sake ELIMINATE that darn bubble wrap plastic cushioning. These speakers came in a very sturdy box from the factory that already included a very durable specially molded cardboard cushioning object that was quite sturdy THE PLASTIC BAG THAT CANNOT BE RECYCLED WAS 100% UNCESSESSARY. I decided awhile ago to ORDER LESS FROM AMAZON because they allege they are "Green" but their packaging is excessive - too much plastic and bad for the environment! ... show more

  • You get what you pay for
Style: USB
I've had these for a few months now so don't mind the dust in the photos. Good to know though that they do attract dust so if you live in a household with lots of dust or cats or pets you're probably going to end up with fuzz all over the front of these. I do not move these at all, so this dust is all natural. This speaker is definitely louder than my base computer speakers but not by very much so don't expect the best sound. No bluetooth available, very basic plug and play. There is an extremely bright LED blue light on the front that is extremely blinding even during the day no matter where you point it. I immediately covered it with 3 Coats of black nail polish while the speaker was laid on its back and then I let it dry for 12 hours overnight and that solved the led problem. I cant see any light at all now. I leave these speakers turned all the way up on the knob and I control the volume on my actual computer rather than twisting the knob. It works great turned all the way up, no buzzing. Good tone. It is really nice to have the aux in plug option if you have somebody who would like to Jack directly into the computer cause that is pretty cool. Once again I'll say you get exactly what you pay for and if you add in a cheap base speaker this setup will probably provide you exactly what you need until you can get a proper set up. If you are a college student or somebody who is poor in living a very baseline minimalist lifestyle this is definitely going to do exactly what you need to do. Also, you can get the Amazon basics logo off the front of the speakers with nail Polish remover or icypropol alcohol. After that you just have plain Black speakers. I really had an extremely hard time finding a pair of speakers that plug into my computer that do not use a plug on my wall socket meaning the speakers get the power from the computer that also had no lights and were just minimalist in any color. If you are like me and this is what you are looking for, definitely buy these speakers and do the minor maintenance to make them perfect. ... show more

  • Decent for the price, with a few flaws.
Style: USB
Given the low cost, there are quite a few positives about these speakers. They are solidly made, fairly compact, look nice, the controls feel of decent quality, and the sound is decent. The bass is mediocre, but that is to be expected. They work fine for my uses which is primary computer audio, voice and background music. I thought they just had a single USB connection that provided power and audio to the speakers. It actually a separate USB and audio jack combined into a single cable. I guess the audio jack gives flexibility with connecting to a source like a phone, but you would still need a power source for the USB plug. I pulled the two halves of the cable apart and and plugged the USB into an outlet using a USB power block. The LED light is much brighter than it needs to be. I have the speakers in my home office and at night the light shines across the hall into my bedroom enough to be annoying. I often turn off the speakers to kill the light. If the USB is plugged into a computer, the light will go out if you power off the computer (but not if in sleep mode). ... show more

  • See directions.
Style: USB
Ok the first thing you do is take a small piece of aluminum foil and spread a thick fast frying glue on one side then place over blue light and press firmly in place or your going to have ufo investigators coming from miles to investigate the blue glowing light. Then get a white paint marker and place a small dot on the line top. Other than that there great speakers. This is my second set. ... show more

  • W for its price
Style: USB
Saw some reviews how they said they were surprised by the quality. $18 speakers how great can they be right? Boy I was surprised. It’s not the best in the world but probably the best $18 speakers out there. I just don’t like how bright the blue light was. Slapped a piece of electrical tape and problem solved. It does the job ... show more

  • Irritating background static
Style: AC
These speakers looked good at a good price. The problem I have with them is an irritating static sound in the background.
