Inexpensive PC speakers

First impression- too much Bass and no way to turn it down. There are no adjustments to the sound of these speakers. While overall the sound quality is good enough, considering the price, when cranked up to near maximum the Bass takes over and dominates the sound. If you like boom boom boom it's okay. However, with a little experimenting I found that if I turn down the computers sound level (50%) and use only the speakers volume control it was better. Better but still not good. I noted that the Bass speaker was on the very bottom of the box (and in fact exposed) and that I was setting it on a very hard tile floor. Hmm. I cut a piece of black foam packing material I had laying around just a bit larger than the box and slipped it under the speaker. Much better, a little sound absorbing material under the speaker really helped. Sound quality now is good considering the price of the units. One welcome improvement would be at least a simple tone control found on other speakers. The two Tweeter speakers work quite well, they have good sound quality and when the Bass isn't drowning them out are quite pleasant listening. I would have to say that after my tweeks is when their quality really showed up. I will recommend these speakers and caution the buyer that you may need to be aware of how and where you set them up. Or, if you like a lot of Bass- these may be what your looking for.Read full review
