  • Clear, accurate, limited bass and volume as you'd expect

    4.0 out of 5 stars

    First, looks. These speakers are a perfect match for a Mac with the anodised aluminium stands, they really do look like they've be en made by Apple. They look as good in real-life as they do in the photos.

    The audio signal is digital-out via USB lead. Just plug it into a USB socket on your Mac and it's instantly recognised, sound switching to the speakers. If this doesn't happen, hold down the Option (alt) key while clicking the volume and select the speakers from the sound output devices. One small thing here: the mini-USB end of the cable has to be pushed a long way into the socket on the speakers, so if they don't work at first make sure this is fully in.

    The sound quality is very impressive for USB-powered speakers. The sound is crisp, clear and accurate. Obviously with speakers this size and no subwoofer, both the depth of the bass and the overall volume are limited. Certainly the 'room-filling sound' of the blurb is hyperbole, but the volume is sufficient for desk speakers and the bass is acceptable for the type of music I listen to (mostly singer-songwriter stuff). If you're into heavy metal, however, these aren't the speakers you're looking for.

    One disappointment is the length of the cables. The RCA cable in particular only allows sufficient length for the speakers to be separated by about 68cm once you angle the speakers a bit towards you. This is obviously much less than the width of the average desk, so if you want to position them at the corners of your desk, expect to have to be able to replace the RCA cable. This is the sort of cost-saving you expect from a £30 pair of cheap speakers rather than a £130 pair.

    Worth the money? Considering both sound quality and looks, I'd say yes.     …
