 GREAT SOUND GREAT PRICE November 20, 2008
This product is a great buy. Single piece construction, high quality sound that projects extremely well. Built in subwoofer gives these speakers great balance in overall sound.Perfect upgrade for any notebook/home use. What makes this great is the price.I paided under $37 with S/H INCLUDED!
Great sound. November 10, 2008
I bought this speaker for my wife after having bought her a new laptop whose only limitation was a very week internal speaker. I found this one at Amazon for $20 on sale. The only comments that were negative seemed to be from people expecting a $100 speaker. But, for a $20 speaker, it's all she wanted and more. It's got good bass and a clear sound. It fits easily behind her 15" laptop screen.
As others have said, this speaker is not the most easily portable, but, paraphrasing Barack Obama at an early primary debate with Hillary Clinton, "You're portable enough." She can take it in her bag to school, where she teaches, and take it home with little difficulty.
It makes her happy and does all she wants with all the quality her ears need to hear.

 Excellent sound, excellent value! November 7, 2008
These are great speakers, and for the price, it's hard to beat. If you have a room or apartment, this is more than enough to fill the place with sound. I have this in my bedroom, and I can be two walls and about 30 feet in away in my kitchen and hear the music just fine. No distortion or buzzing at loud settings either.
The built-in sub is small, but if you're close to the speakers there is enough bass. I keep mine on my desk right behind my laptop, and it's really fantastic sound. Couple this with $19.99 from TigerDirect and this is a great deal.
Also included are three USB ports in the back. So even though it takes up one USB port on your computer, you get two more. And it includes a USB extension cord. The price of those two extras alone would probably cost 1/2 the price of this system.
I have two negative critiques: one minor and one probably my own fault. First, the size. Look carefully at the user-added pictures, it is a pretty bulky speaker. Although this isn't a problem for me, others may find it a bit larger than expected. Second, there is only one manual control, and that is volume. I haven't found a way to adjust the bass, but then again, it could be doable through Windows and it's my own fault for not exploring more carefully. But I haven't really had to look because the default setting sounds good enough.
I have already recommended these speakers to others, and if you're looking for something under $40, this is the way to go!
 Decent sound, but underpowered November 2, 2008
The speakers have an attractive design. I bought them so I could play tunes from my laptop in a small living room. From the size and reviews I expected clear sound without a lot of bass, which is indeed so. I did not realize, though, how underpowered they would be. If I am sitting at the computer, i.e. within a couple of feet of the speakers, the sound is fine. If I walk across the room, the music is barely audible. At maximum volume, it is about half the volume I would have expected. Now I bought them through an alternative seller [...], so this still strikes me as a reasonable deal. If I had spent the $[...] or so that they typically cost, I would have sent them back and continued looking for a better option.
Perfect October 25, 2008
This is possibly one of the best add-ons i can think of for a laptop. The speakers on my Inspiron 1525 were poor at best and were just barely good enough for Youtube videos. So today i said enough was enough and what i find but the Audiohub. At this price I didn't expect much but WOW, these babies can blow. Highs and mids are perfect, bass could be a bit louder if you ask me but you can expect much from a 3" driver. By all means these are no Studio Monitors but for a semi-portable system the peaker system with comparable sound is the Bose SoundDock Series II digital music system for iPod - Black and we can all see the price difference, not to mention the fact that it's not for laptops. All in all if you're disappointed in your laptop speakers output you shouldn't be reading this review you should be checking out already. However one word of caution before buying, Logitech advertises this as being able to expand outwards to accommodate screen sizes up to and including 17". If you have a widescreen laptop, which means any AR past 4:3 you may be S.O.L. My 15" Inspiron 1525 fits by a margin of about 1/4 of an inch per side. So if you have a larger screen it may block the speakers. Other than that I cant say much else negative about this product.
