Review
By G. Moore (Springfield, MO)
Like alot of people I have been disappointed in way laptop makers have poor built in speakers. When looking for ad on speakers, there is not alot of choices for laptop/notebook speakers. I purchased these 2 weeks ago. They stay securely softly clipped to my 17 in HP laptop they have rubber grips to keep them from scratching, or sliding down your screen edge. Easy to clip and unclip onto the side of the screen edges.
Instructions are not correct in the setup. Company says once you plug in its auto configures and loads the microsoft drivers, which it does , but then it does NOT auto pic them to start playback with these once they are plugged in. I plugged in to the usb port, windows 7 loaded the drivers but I had to manually go in to the system, Windows, control panel, then sounds,where you will see available speaker, headphones etc. pick the usb speakers and select these speakers for the default speakers. Once I did that, they worked like a dream.
You might have to reboot, but I did not have too. These speakers greatly increased the sound output of my HP pavilion dv7 laptop. These are great digital amplified speakers. Bass is not the best, but you can hear a beat, and sure beats the onboard laptop speakers hands down. These things are loud for laptop speakers. If your listening to music on itunes or watching a netflix movie you wont miss a word. I can hear these babies play at 50 percent of windows power and go to the kitchen or bathroom and hear it.
You also will have to use the itunes equalizer to adjust the sound. but even without the equalizer it sounds great. I did not notice any distortion, but dont crank them all the way up, you might blow them, although i doubt you could, I preferred not to try. But these speakers get very loud even below 75 percent of the volume selection.
Would be nice if the bass was a little more , but cant expect that from small speakers. I gave it 4 stars cause it has a flimsy tiny thin little cord, which could be easily pinched or frayed. The maker could improve the product, and make it with a cord at least 3 times thicker, and it be more durable. Also I have to undo the bond of the two channel ply cord so that the right channel side would be long enough to reach where it needed to be. since I had to use the usb on the left side. I would buy again.
