Logitech Z120 Compact PC Stereo Speakers, 3.5mm Audio Input, USB Powered, Integrated Controls, Cable Management Solution, Computer/Smartphone/Tablet/Music Player - White/Black

Bought these speakers a few months ago now. Trialed them as desktop speakers for gaming, movie streaming and listening to music. They are seriously good. They are very small speakers which punch well above their weight. Even if you max them out, playing the heaviest music possible, these won't shudder or distort. A very good deal for the price, you won't find much better performing and nicer looking speakers for £11. Also the cable tidying setup around the back is very useful and nicely put together. The casing too feels nice, thick and durable; probably a high quality High Impact PolystyreneAlso I have taken them apart (I am using the speaker component for a project); of course once you remove the case the sound is allowed to spread out more and sounds tinny, so the case does do a lot for the sound itself, which is a testament to Logitech's design. The speaker cone is only 52mm diameter, on a square mounted bracket 65mm wide. They are very tall though, and have a whopping great magnet on the back of the speaker, so there is a lot of bulk for transmission of sound.For those not wishing to hack the speaker to pieces though, which I gather is most of you, they are a very neat little set of speakers which will do you very well for the money. In short... GET THEM!

I was looking for second hand PC speakers but when I saw the reviews and price of these, I thought I'd go for new instead.I bought these for a second PC we have and they're great! I like my music and like to think I can tell poor quality audio when I hear it and, for the price, these deliver in spades. Bass is quite light, as you'd expect for USB-powered speakers without a subwoofer, but not missing altogether. The most impressive thing about these is the clarity of the midrange and high frequency - dialogue is very clear. They're not loud - you wouldn't use them to get a party pumping. I bought them primarily for use with Skype and they're perfect for this.They are powered through the USB port on the PC - so you'll need a spare one of these - and then they plug in to any standard 3.5mm jack. You could use these as "travel speakers" if you had a USB port handy. I'm listening to them right now powered from a portable external battery with a USB port and plugged into my HTC Desire S.They're very rugged too. The white plastic is very solid - I'd be quite happy throwing them in a bag. They don't come with covers for the drivers but this isn't too big of a problem. My 5-year old daughter has already stuck her thumb into them without any negative impact on the sound.Each speaker rests on a circular foam base. The maximum length of the cable between the two speakers is about 70cm and the length of the cables (both USB and audio) coming from the right speaker is about 110cm.All in all, a very good buy unless you want something for a bass-heavy house party!

Bought them expecting something louder than laptop speakers but not capable of good music/video sound output. i was wrong. granted, they're not as good as speakers you'll pay £60 for, but for anyone wanting louder volume and speakers that can be taken around easily with your laptop, and easily put away, these are a great buy. I'm a uni student, and these do the job of filling a room in halls (and half the floor) with music, as well as any living room for pre-drinks/house parties. at a high volume, it's still very audible from 15 feet away, and within 10 feet it's loud enough to make your average volume conversation a bit difficult. The sound from these carries, which is great, makes it feel good quality, and not tinny. The bass, vocals, drums and instrumental are all clear,as is dubstep, classical and other genres.Although 100% volume on the speakers,laptop and youtube video/song in itunes/ tv programme will result in a slight decline in quality, it's common with most speakers under £100.Another good thing, some speakers with bass heavy songs give out a thumping sound, these don't, the balance is good. With slightly better technology these could be on a par with Bose, and that's not an exaggeration.The only buzzing sound i've heard is the facebook notification noise, but this is high pitched.I've had them for over 8 months and no problems at all, and friends have said how good these are, and that's before I told them the great price!!!highly recommended

I bought these for my HP Z27n G2 as HP's S100 speaker bar produced a constant hissing sound which was very irritating. These are simple speakers with power provided by the USB port and sound via the 3.5mm audio cable. Note that sound is not carried over the USB cable only power. If your computer disables power to the USB ports during sleep then these speakers will also conveniently power on/off with your PC which is a bonus.They look stylish and are small enough to fit under my monitor when it's raised, so are fairly unobtrusive. The integrated cable management is simple and works well. The length of cable between speakers is just about enough to give good stereo separation, at about a half metre or so.Sound wise they won't blow your socks off, but these speakers are cheap and do the job exceedingly well for the price. Personally I would prefer more bass response, but at this price point I wouldn't expect any more. When you turn up the volume there is no feedback/hissing/white noise, and they go surprisingly loud for their size. Music, You Tube videos and operating system sounds all sound good.I definitely recommend these - they are probably the best small stylish speakers you can buy for the price!
