...I ended up with this Labtec Pulse 285 and here is why! I compared: Labtec Pulse 285 Philips SPA1300 2.1 Speakers. Philips SPA2600 5.1 PC Speakers. + more... (sorry i can't remember the others!) Don't be fooled by the 'seemingly' low 6 Watt figure. On paper 6 Watts may seem a bit weak next to the competitors but when tested among 5 other setups these speakers are very loud and even still very clear with volume at 100%. Don't get me wrong you ...
...get a lot more than you need for PC speakers! In reality the only difference you notice between the price ranges was the amount of bass being produced from the subwoofers. I do like my music and bass has to be there to give the full effect which is why I have a 1400 Watt subwoofer in my car. The most powerful PC/Laptop subwoofer i tested was only 20 Watts or so - not really worth arguing over! The speakers look the part too in a very smart black ... Read review

...ones! I have had Trust speakers before and found them to be average to good in quality but always of a high spec and at reasonale prices. I have to say that these are pretty good. Hardly likely to rock your World or, for purists, they are not exactly up there with Wisdom or Kharma! Mind you, those speakers can go for ten of thousands of pounds so a sub £12 bracket makes them extremely good value. The look is simplistic but clean. They consist ...
...in a wood construction with black fabric over the speaker units themselves. The sound is average but does distort is you crank them right up. They are rated at 24W and can be mounted onto a wall pretty easily as they are very light. The Bass is adequate for the power and does the job to its best abilities. One gripe, which annoys me even with speakers which are so much higher in cost, is the on/off button being on the reverse of the sub. Boy, that ... Read review

I have owned these speakers for around 8 months now, i bought them to be used with my pc to give me better sound for music, games and movies and i have to say that i am happy with these speakers, i have not had any problems or faults with them and i have enjoyed the quality i have got from them. one of the great features of these speakers is the volume remote, i have my subwoofer under my desk and it would be a pain to have to reach down there every ...
...the speakers. the remote has a volume scroller and a power switch so you can adjust the volume and switch off the power to the speakers without touching them. The volume you get from these is amazing and there isnt much distortion of sound on full volume (although it is very rare i get anywhere near fully volume), although this will depend on the device you have connected to the speakers, this system is not only for pc users you can connect this ...

Advantages: sleek design, blue led dial light, looks modern, pretty clear sound quality
Disadvantages: volume control is on subwoofer, power button on rear, bass lacks,

its a nice little system ideal for a laptop, or an on the move 2.1 system the sub isnt that good, you can hardly feel any bass, but i suppose from a 25w system what do you expect? the satelleite speakers re great, really clear crystal quality the actual unit has the volume control, and so you have to keep going back to the sub to adjust the volume and bass controls. althought the volume and bass controls have a stylish silver dial, with a blue ...

Advantages: Very good bass, clear sound, cheap
Disadvantages: Awkward control knobs

Bought these speakers over a year ago as part of my new computer build, have used them pretty much every day since and they are as good as the day I purchased them. Have owned some cheaper speakers before and these seem to be in a different class, for just a few pounds extra. The sattelite speakers are pretty standard, as you would expect from any system, clear sound, clean styled look, compact and easy to fit around a desk. The subwoofer however ... Read review
